Alabama's Freshwater Fish

The largemouth bass is not the only bass dominating freshwater fishing. Alabama has many varieties of bass such as striped, small mouth and spotted bass to name a few. Even though there is a large variety of bass in Alabama's fresh water lakes, ponds and rivers, the fish most sought after by avid fishermen in Alabama is the largemouth bass because of the challenge and reward in catching it. One of the best ways to get an advantage when fishing for largemouth bass is to use a Garmin fishfinder 160c dual beam which is on sale for $199.99 at

Alabama has more fish in its freshwater lakes than just bass. You'll find crappie, trout, brim and catfish to name a few. Of these fish, the catfish is the only one that compares in size to the largemouth bass. In fact, catfish grow extremely larger than the largemouth bass. The largest state record for catfish is the blue catfish which weighed 111 pounds with the flat head catfish in second at 80 pounds.

The size of catfish make it a challenge once they are caught but the long wait for them to take your bait can be boring, because catfish are bottom feeders and they feed mostly at night or late in the evening.

When I fish for catfish I use chicken liver or stink bait. You put the bait on your hook, throw it in the water and wait. You must always be alert to the fact that your bait might be taken at any time and be ready to pull back on your line to catch the fish. However, it might be hours before you get a bite.

This is the reason bass fishing is as popular as it is in Alabama. It requires strategy and planning and your constantly in motion trying to locate and catch that trophy fish to place above your fireplace. The use of a Furuno 300c fish finder or Humminbird 778c from

If your fishing for the larger bass, you need to fish the deeper water and a good fish finder can help you find where the fish are hiding. If your fishing for smaller bass such a one to two pounds then fish the shallow water, under and around trees and brush is the ideal place to fish. A fish finder can still help you, because it locates shallow water and can keep you from dragging bottom.

With everything said, it doesn't matter what type of fish you prefer to catch, because Alabama's ponds, rivers and lakes provide a large variety to choose from and you can fish for different types of fish depending on your desires.
