Spotted Bass
If you're heading to Owens Cross Roads, Alabama, and have spotted bass on your mind, you're in for a treat. The nearby waters of the Tennessee River, particularly Guntersville Lake, are renowned for their healthy spotted bass populations. These fish thrive in the rocky structure and submerged timber that characterize this section of the river. Spring and fall are prime times to target them as they move shallow to spawn or feed aggressively before winter. Look for rocky points and bluffs close to deeper water, as these areas tend to hold concentrations of fish. A local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. Spotted bass often prefer clearer water than largemouth, so target areas with better visibility. Also, Guntersville Lake can get crowded, especially on weekends, so consider hitting the water early or during the week for a more peaceful experience. The spotted bass here are known for their aggressive strikes, so be prepared for a good fight!
