 Good afternoon, y’all, this is Artificial Lure with your Lake Guntersville fishing report for Sunday, July 6th, 2025. Here’s the scoop for anyone planning to hit the water today.

Weather’s been mild for July, with temps topping out in the low 80s under partly cloudy skies, and just a light breeze out of the north. The National Weather Service is calling for continued steady conditions. Water temps are running in the high 70s to just 80, and with last night’s calm, clarity is looking decent, especially early in the day. TVA is maintaining stable lake levels and flow, so you’re not fighting sudden swings like you do some springs.

Sunrise came at 5:39 AM local time, with sunset around 8:04 PM — so you’ve got some prime evening hours for topwater action. FishNorthAlabama.com points out the best activity windows today are from about 7:30–9:30 AM and then again 8–10 PM, right on cue with those cooler bookend hours.

Anglers have been reporting solid bags this week. There’s been a mix of good largemouth and a surprising number of chunky spots pulled off the river ledges and channel swings. Just last month, competition weights hit 27–31 pounds for five-fish limits, and while that’s tour-level stuff, regulars have been landing plenty of 3- to 5-pounders, especially early and late.

For lures, the hot ticket continues to be that green pumpkin 3/8-ounce Z-Man/EverGreen ChatterBait Jack Hammer, fished around submerged grass and over the edges of hydrilla mats. Swim jigs with a bluegill trailer and classic Texas-rigged soft plastics, like a six-inch watermelon red worm, are also drawing bites when worked through milfoil pockets and around docks. If you’re targeting those deeper ledges, don’t overlook a drop-shot or a football jig in a craw pattern.

Topwater fans are getting blowups at dawn and dusk with Spooks and buzzbaits, especially near shallow flats adjacent to creek mouths. Live shad and jumbo minnows are reliable if you’re taking the kids or looking for numbers.

Recent reports from majorleaguefishing.com and local tournament recaps have mentioned consistent sacks of bass from the mid-lake bridges — Highway 69 bridge and Browns Creek causeway are both giving up numbers. Those riprap banks have schooling fish chasing bait when the current’s running. The grassy humps off Goose Pond Colony and around Siebold Creek have been steady producers too, especially on moving baits just after sun-up.

For those after a mixed bag, catfish are biting cut bait on creek channel bends, and the bream bite is still dependable on crickets around the docks. Occasional crappie are being caught at night under lights on minnows in deeper brush.

A couple of recommended hot spots for today:
- Highway 69 bridge pilings and adjacent riprap, especially on moving current for schooling bass.
- The grass mats and flats around Goose Pond Colony and the mouth of North Sauty — perfect for working a frog or buzzbait early.

That’s the rundown for today. Thanks so much for tuning in — be sure to hit subscribe so you’re the first to hear the latest from Lake Guntersville. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
