McMullen, Alabama, though a small community, provides access to some promising largemouth bass fishing in the surrounding creeks and ponds. While there isn't a major lake nearby, the smaller waterways can hold surprisingly good bass populations. Spring and fall are prime times to target bass here, as they become more active during these periods. In the spring (March-May), focus on pre-spawn and spawning bass in shallow water, using lures like spinnerbaits and crankbaits. In the fall (September-November), target bass as they feed up for the winter, using topwater lures and jerkbaits. Local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. If the water is clear, use natural-colored lures; if it's murky, opt for brighter colors. The bass in this area are generally known for being aggressive, especially when they're actively feeding. Be prepared for some exciting topwater action!
