The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 10:43 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather
The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

October Fishing Report

Alabama’s October bite turns on as water cools. On Lake Guntersville and Wheeler, largemouth and spotted bass push shallow with shad. Best action is early and late on topwaters over grass edges and riprap; switch to lipless cranks, chatterbaits, and jerkbaits when the sun rises. Wind-blown points and creek mouths are hot after a light chop.

Weiss and Neely Henry see strong crappie around brush in 8–14 feet; use minnows or small jigs, and slide shallower as afternoons warm. River catfish feed ahead of fronts—anchor on ledges with cut bait for steady blue and channel cat action.

Along the coast, Mobile Bay and Gulf Shores produce redfish and speckled trout on moving tides. Work popping corks with live shrimp around marsh drains and shell; dawn slicks and birds mark bait. After cool snaps, look for flounder staging near passes with soft-plastic jigheads.

Stable high-pressure conditions and water in the upper 60s–low 70s keep fish active; expect a midday lull on bluebird days.

Top tip: Fish the last hour before and first hour after a tide or current change—stack waypoints on ambush edges and rotate through quickly to stay on the feed window.

Best Fishing Spots in the greater Alabama area

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 1 beaches and bays in this area.

Bedford Beach - 24.2897622667km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 2 main harbours in this area.

Gasport Marina - 17.70300187543km, Nelson C Goehle Marina - 24.53681607905km
