Holt lake is pretty nice this time of year as well as the Tuscaloosa lake.

You can also play around in the ponds over by the airport. There are some nice Bass and Cats in there.

Lake Harris and Lake Nicols would be my next choice. You can also fish the river that runs through town.

What species do you plan to target?? You are in some nice Bass country.🕶

They have Smallmouth as well as Largemouth Bass, Crappie, Sunfish, Carp, Musky, Pickerels, Walleye, Trout, Perch and Catfish.

I’m sure you will be familiar with some or most of those species.🕶

Hello Jim,  
Any luck in any of these waters? Look forward to some reports on how the fishing has been.
