night time on the mile

Tue, 07 Jun 2011 13:53:12 EST

it was a warm night (ok it was hot) just about dusk round 7:30 pm my borther and I decided to do a little cat fishin. Off to five mile we went not even 5 mins after getting there the cats were hitting and hitting hard. all total we ended up with bout 12 cats a couple bream and even a largemouth bass. So in my book I would say it was an awsome night on the mile. yea they may have been small but we dont keep them anyway we just do it for the sport. I would rather catch 20 1lb fish over 1 20lb any day. just the relaxation of being on the water is good for me.

Crowder's Pond

Sat, 04 Jun 2011 17:37:53 EST

It's just a small 1.5 acre pond near Ashville , Alabama . An old friend of mine John Crowder bought an 18 acre piece of land with a small pond on it . About 10 years ago his dad caught a 10LB. Largemouth out of it , he did'nt throw it back . I was invited to fish there and made it to the pond around 10 A.M. It was 96 degrees already but about 35 Bass were caught on a Carolina Rig with 2FT. of leader . Before I left Iused a light spinning outfit and caught more fish . Around 2 P.M. it was about 100 degrees. I did eventually leave .

5 mile creek

Sat, 21 May 2011 21:39:34 EST

ok yall Ive made a hunded trips out to 5 mile creek then I learned about this site. Its my primary fishing spot me and my brother have been fishing it for a couple years now. after every rain the fishing seems to get better the more it rains the bigger the fish seem to get. Well after the recent tornado that still holds true. The bass are more abundent and the bream have gotten more agressive and bigger, and the cats WOW what can I say but holy cow we went a week ago I pulled up a 8-10 lb channel and my brother lost at least a 15 lb channel. The good spots arent easy to get to but hey its worth it. heading out again tomorrow. wont forget the camera this time lol

Trout Fishing in Alabama

Tue, 17 May 2011 13:44:26 EST

Lewis Smith Dam northeast of B'ham, Al. , you'll find the tailrace water is cold enough to support Trout . Every other month the State and ALA. Power stock @3500 Rainbow Trout in the Sipsey- Warrior Tailrace . The local chapter of TU and the local flyfishermenare petitioning for the stocking of Browns . Some improvements in the access to the water have already been made with what looks like more trails and clearing being done . I have met people from other states and countries there and it is refreshing to see the interest there . Midges, wooly boogers, small streamers , and the ultra-light work well there . I have caught a 20inch 'Bow and a 16 1/2 also . 14 inch fish are rather common too . The limit is 5 keepers over 12 inches but I throw back more than I keep . Hope to see you there .

Turkey Creek of Jefferson County , AL.

Tue, 12 Apr 2011 17:10:41 EST

This area of the creek is about a mile and a half from the Warrior River at I-65 . Eventhough I didn't have much to show for the waste of time and gas I still believe there are some fish to be caught . The water was still about a foot too high which is just a little too much . Ideally you want to see the rocks jutting out in the stream and letting worm , jig , or fly slowly come around the rock and the ambush is then done by the fish . I hope there are still some good fish left , it would be a waste to see this part of the creek go to the ' Iwouldn't fish there list' .

Don't tell anyone about this.

Tue, 15 Mar 2011 22:16:43 EST

Some people know about this place and some shouldn't . Lake Ketona is really a quarry that flooded in the forties I believe . In 1950 it gave up the World Record bluegill . It is now 2011 and it's still down the road from my house. A friend and one of his buddies scuba dived in that hole in the eighties . They did'nt go back . The bottom never came in sight , it got very cold , and they saw a freshwater eel bigger than one's forearm . The fish they saw were huge but according to them the trip wasn't worth it . The average distance from bank to the water is about 30 feet , straight down . Average depth varies depending on who is telling you. The area is posted and may not be worth the risk of jailtime . Thus the 61 year old World Record Bluegill may stay here until someone is crazy enough to try. I will map it for that one crazy person , good luck .
