Well folks it seems our friend and Leader Mr. Lee Smith is very much on the mend. He has declared that there will be another Guntersville Rally.
With this being determined it is time to get your rally savings jars in place to begin the process of putting some cash aside to cover your cost of attending this very special event. This event will mark the coming together of the lost tribe of bass anglers who could not get together during 2018. Now is the time to make your plans known. As you think of your vacation planning for next year don't forget the rally. Most likely it will be the last week of September but I am just speculating at this time. Save up some money, Get your time off planned and obtain your kitchen passes.
So here is the deal, If you really want to attend a rally, this is your chance. You have an entire year to make your plans and get ready. Don't wait until the last minute. If you want to fish a world class fishery, spend some time with your UB Friends and have a few days of laughing, eating and maybe some adult beverages and even you can participate in the moons over guntersville photo or perhaps maybe even the very special porch pee. You will not be able to forget the wake up pots and pans call to arms each morning. I have a hunch that this event will be extra special. You never know who might just show up.
Dang STRAIGHT! What Bud Said! Bud knows! Listen to Bud!
It's on like Donkey Kong, I'm already coming up with crap to pull on the new guys! ~roflmao ~beer~
ok maybe I can make this one. Barring in changes in my work schedule, I get off September 18th for 2 weeks.

Steve, I believe that the likely dates will be September 25-29. The tournament event will be on Saturday of that week Sept 28th. The rest of the time is doing rally stuff and some fishing. Most folks will arrive on Wednesday and leave on Sunday
Well I know I have been wanting to make one of these and if I start saving now and if my strength holds up and if I can borrow some fishing stuff from someone and if I can get someone to pick me up at an airport somewhere and if I could get a back seat on someones boat I sure would love to make the one next year.
Wait, there was no rally this year?

Not at Guntersville but looks like it might happen next year.
Lip I think we can arrange a back seat and finding you some equipment won't be a problem If you can stay healthy and save up a bit, I am sure we can make it happen. I would imagine flying out of Midway you should have tons of available flights into Birmingham. You got plenty of time to get it all scoped out. It looks like Southwest has non stop flight on that route midway to birmingham

When we set a date for it I will have to start looking into them flights a little closer and start start my rally jar now. ;D Yelp Midway is only about 10 minutes from my house in heavy traffic. ;D

Would be great to see Joe & Pat and maybe even Big Wrench if Humpty Dumpty can be put back together again. We need the Green Brothers and VA Hawghunter to make a return to the cabins. Have not seen anything from Rockchalk or FlowerJohn since the last rally.

October and November are wide open.
OK Zip, if that is the case I would propose as an alternate October 3,4,5 with the 5th being the tournament day.
I'm down with that. now who is going to be stuck with me on their boat? Or am I dragging the walleye rig down there.
Just pick a dang date, and then Ill chime in. ~beer~
I'm following along. Maybe the wife will let me get out for a fall trip.
Zip, we could carpool down.
Oct 3,4,5 good for me! Hell, I don't care really, but when I call Connie, it's set, so all you folks better get to talkin'
Oct 2nd is my Birthday. I can hear it now...

You ain't gonna have to tow this one ~bb Can't speak for Fogy's eighteen wheeler...
Pick the date and we'll do all we can to make it. It will be four of us and we'll have to deal with pulling the boys out of school but they haven't missed a single day this year (unexcused) so I think we'll be okay to let them have a break next year.

Matt and Lou. Please bring your PFDs. It will make it easier to find your bodies if we have to go out and look for you..
Lee I think the channel that winds along where the river is. The one where you have to be about 6" off of the shoreline on one side. That indeed is a great 65+ turn or perhaps even a bit more. The Florida boys would probably take that turn sequence at a blazing 12MPH. ~c~ ~c~ That turn is more fun that they Tokyo Drift Movie.

At this time I am still unable to commit to the Rally due to the wife's medical issues. Hopefully this will be resolved or at least improved and I will still be able to attend what is shaping up to be a very special event with some old friends and meet some of the new folks who are coming. Terry G is also trying to work out a couple of things as well in case I can't make it. It would be great if Team Geezer could attend this event but it is just too soon to tell.

Y'all in our prayers! Got a long ways between now and then to get things better!! Sure hope y'all can! Just want be the same.....

Prayers for Bud and Terry's situation.
Bo, wiz, Lee, and Mike in one place. This alone should put people in line for this event.
If Gary would get his butt over there it would take it over the top.
Let me tell you a story about the Guntersville Rally. For those of us who have attended in the past, we can attest that the history has been for a group of friends get together for a few days and party a bit. Your milage may vary depending upon your age. lo
You will find that there will be some drinking, you will find there will be some pranks and you will find that there will be some fishing. People will send texts lying about their catches and there will not be a whole lot of sleeping each day. You will see that it is truly a get together with people who are friends even if they have never met. The conversations are real and one of the highlights of the outing. Those front porch chat rooms are the best. Everything that happens will take place in good kinda clean fun. Ultimate Bass folks truly are family and it will stand out big time at the rally.
If you want to have a nice time, with no pressure and just fun and bragging rights this is the best rally you will ever attend. The food will be great and the stories will become the legends of the years ahead. Who knows there might even be a record number of moons over Guntersville this year. You will also have the advantage of having some chats with some of the most knowledgeable anglers on Ultimate Bass.

might want to get some underspin hooks for the swimbaits. The ones I use are Owner "flashy". Come in plenty of sizes and weights. And, shockingly, they are pretty weedless for having the underspin. Plus, relative to other underspins (cough...fish head Im looking right at you....) they are inexpensive.
Jigs, Football heads, swim jigs and bombs. In the day, punch jigs were called "bombs". Also, large 8-10 inch grubs match the October forage if you ho offshore. Bring good, strong hooks for G-ville's large bass.
Wizard
Might also recommend some Pro Z Frogs. The color Scooby Do has been the go to for the past couple years if you believe color makes a difference. Choose both popping frogs as well as regular style frogs. Good bait that by the way keeps the water out of their inside. Very durable.
A large grass mat full of popping bream is a terrible thing to waste. Love froggin on a busy mat
Thanks guys,
I have plenty of frogs, jigs and swimbaits. May have to pick up some underspins.

Man this is a long thread ~roflmao
So our last football game is Thursday the 3rd. Since I am the head coach, it would be bad if I wasn't there. Game will probably end at 8 Pm and then maybe I can be packed up ahead of time and when I get home, go. It takes about 2.5 hours to get there from Nashville. SO I may arrive maybe 11 PM Thursday? Just in time to unpack, have a few beers and hit the rack. Fish all day Friday and Saturday and come back to Nashville Sunday. Seem doable??
I would need to pair with someone who has a boat.
Having never been, how much money should I bring and what else should we bring besides the usual clothes, fishing gear and alcohol? Do we pitch in for food and grill out or run to local restaurants?

Just in time to unpack, have a few beers and hit the rack. Fish all day Friday and Saturday and come back to Nashville Sunday. Seem doable??
I would need to pair with someone who has a boat.
Having never been, how much money should I bring and what else should we bring besides the usual clothes, fishing gear and alcohol? Do we pitch in for food and grill out or run to local restaurants?
Brang ya doll self on, brang the ragular stuffs an sum pitchin' in monies.....
This un' gonna be a good un' ;D

If you think about it. The instigator for many of the the more famous pranks was our friend from North of the Boarder. The FC was the initiator of the goat pose for the moons over Guntersville photo, the Lee Smith flower drawing and the co inventor of the Alabama Tini. LMG was just the foil to a few of these pranks that caused the stairstep lip stand after trying to keep up with the flower man. Not sure how the toilet ghost came about but may have been planned and executed by CaddyJoe and LMG.

so, on that note, last night I'm watching 'So I Married an Axe Murderer' and just had a flashback to the wedding reception scene with the lone bagpiper playing rod Stewart's 'If you think I'm "woops"y' sung by Mike Meyers as 'his father' with coke bottle glasses and a heavy Scottish accent.
thinking about this, perhaps it's more accurate to call it a 'flashback'?
When should be we call for reservations or does anyone need another person to share a room? I don't snore!
Also, I will need a ride on a boat. Going 70 doesn't scare me, just not sure the fish can bite the hook trolling that fast ~roflmao
I have added you to the entry list as a non boater.
No other reservations required. Lee Smith has the cabins booked and all you will need to do is Pay Lee before you leave Guntersville.
As it gets closer to Rally time, boat arrangements will be sorted out. I am certain they will find a place for you to fish. There may be three to a boat in some cases but the folks will make it work.
I understand your plans are to arrive late Thursday night after your last football game. The Thursday greeting party will still be underway to about 3AM or until the adult beverages run out but then again I don't think that has ever happened. Wake Up call will be by the Pots and Pans alarm system established by Lee Smith.

Well folks it seems our friend and Leader Mr. Lee Smith is very much on the mend. He has declared that there will be another Guntersville Rally.
With this being determined it is time to get your rally savings jars in place to begin the process of putting some cash aside to cover your cost of attending this very special event. This event will mark the coming together of the lost tribe of bass anglers who could not get together during 2018. Now is the time to make your plans known. As you think of your vacation planning for next year don't forget the rally. Most likely it will be the last week of September but I am just speculating at this time. Save up some money, Get your time off planned and obtain your kitchen passes.
So here is the deal, If you really want to attend a rally, this is your chance. You have an entire year to make your plans and get ready. Don't wait until the last minute. If you want to fish a world class fishery, spend some time with your UB Friends and have a few days of laughing, eating and maybe some adult beverages and even you can participate in the moons over guntersville photo or perhaps maybe even the very special porch pee. You will not be able to forget the wake up pots and pans call to arms each morning. I have a hunch that this event will be extra special. You never know who might just show up.

Their first thought would probably to ask themselves what the hell did they just step into. I keep mine loaded with both .410 and .45.
I have only used the .410 in mine. If the weapon has an issue is that it is heavy and big. Not usually something to hang on your belt. But the darn thing is a real intimidator. It not only looks like a cannon but it sounds like one too. I don't take it out much here but when I was at Santee it was usually in the boat just in case of snakes or an angry big lizard. It does a job on a snake thats for sure. Never shot a gator but I doubt that a .410 load would do much damage to a gator anyway. I just view it as a good defensive weapon.

I have already bought under spins, frogs, and antacids, anything else other than beer Joe. ~beer~
Any reel can be used for frogging. Most important thing is the frame material. No graphite frames. What's your budget?

Perfect rod and reel? That's been my quest for YEARS. I have my perfect rod, and Lee made it for me. As far as reels? There are several that can fit the bill in this dept. But as LMG just mentioned, frames and materials play an important role. Zip, this should be a separate thread cuz this will be great discussion.
Personally I'm a daiwa junkie. But I use a shimano exsence DC.
That should tell you something. My reels are all daiwa except: frog, deep crank which is a curado 200b, and a curado 50e that gets swapped in and out.
I wouldn't be afraid to use an original SV 103 xs though.

It's been at the surface for a while but in spots it's definitely going to mat up. However, eel grass has taken over in spots and there are some creeks with docks that were sprayed.
North though, lots of grass. The traditional spots are good.

Joe is a very nice guy, always happy and always smiling. He is an excellent cook and would help you in any way that he could. BUT, at 7 foot 8 inches and 460 pounds, when he looks at you very sternly and says "You ain't eatin tonight", he can be a little intimidating.

Also, I have 7 years of wrasslin experience. Just warning anyone that starts to feel a little "Frisky," but if you are looking for a scramble or to relive your youth, and you have your ibuprofen, I am always game to wrassle! I maybe the smallest guy there (5' 8" 165 lbs) but I won a lot of money over the years wrasslin guys bigger than me thinking they can beat me because they were bigger. If an alligator shows up, I can also provide the entertainment!
On a more serious note, if you have to pack light, what main lures should I expect to be throwing? Especially if I am going to weigh down the back of someone's boat?? Don't want to bring the whole tackle box for what if's.

Dont worry, I'm 5'6 155lbs. I also wrestled in high school. Lol. But, I ain't wrestling no gator. Lol. Frogs, jigs, plastic swimbaits, spooks. T rigs should be an easy option as well since you can throw a couple different plastics together.

I'm bringing punch jigs, rats, Musky size Traps and Woodchoppers. I've cut back on the bourbon because of medication but will have a few in friendship.
TNDiver, you can be Sergeant at Arms. You can control the ex military, Spec Ops, LEO and Agency guys who will drink too much. Thanks for volunteering your services.

Sure you will. I can see it now. Everyone on the porch will be wearing sun glasses to combat the glow from your halo. And then they will speak ill of you when you go inside to use the bathroom just to complete a #1 task. Hell man that is what front porches are for. You will not be permitted to avoid the moons over Guntersville either. Just remember what happens at Guntersville does not stay at Guntersville.

NOTICE!
Connie had a mix up and we'll be having a 'venue change' but it looks even cooler! We'll be at Kudzu Cove in the Chalet, go to www.kudzucove.com and click on the Chalet, it's 3 miles from the 431 South bridge.
She said we can get around 16 folks in there
It is what it is, Chemo brain got her and she double booked the Glory cabin, and offered the Chalet, I've been there, understand and I'm sure everyone in this group does too....
The cost will be $1486.40 total out the door, so around 100 to 150 each and I always send her some flowers after we gone, just because.
Mistakes happen to the best of us! After this weekend, we may need to send a lot more than flowers!

Guys, I will have to pass on G-ville this year for health concerns. I had scheduled surgery on my retina for November. The doctor had a cancelation and moved the surgery to the week before the gathering. I've spent almost a year trying various eye drops for the condition without success. The retina has a lesion and swelling. My apology for missing the event.

Hope we're not too late.
water is still really really warm. Like 90. need cool nights and the mats still need to get better but this particular one looks to be well on its way.
just my opinion. Additionally, I did get small fish blowups -- but they must have drank too many beers and are out of practice. They kept missing off to the side.
We've never been too late, always been too early, even when it was good. It gets better and better, end of October and start of November is always the best.
We'll be on time ;)

They starting to move up. Sporadic but you can find em. I was in about 11 feet of water. Throwing a swimbait up into 3-4 feet and working it through grass. This was in the evening with clouds rolling in. As the nights cool I expect more of these and they'll start getting fatter.

A wildlife biologist there responded to the thread and said the fisheries division had sent folks out to collect samples of water and fish. Their initial response was that it appeared to be a drop in oxygen levels and they will report if otherwise.
If it was just a drop in oxygen level, it shouldn't have any long term effect on the area.

G-man said he took a water sample as well so that's a nice independent variation for the real outcome.

The shell beds I fished were good year round. Not far from Hooterville if silt hasn't covered them.
I also cut lanes through the big mats with the main motor, waited a half hour and then fished the mats. That was pretty successful.

wind starting to blow around here the last couple days. Maybe, just maybe fall is starting to come around. Normally, during the summer its still unless there is rain. Bluebird skies the last couple days and some good gusts with a steady breeze.
Maybe Dorian related but also could be the first signs of fall

Yup, we have the same here. Even beginning to smell like Fall.
We have leaves changing colors and falling, but they burn to ash before they hit the ground. Been over 100 since June and still hasn't let up. Haven't had rain in 3 weeks :'(
It's going to be awesome to be NORTH of here even if it's only a little ways north...
Mike, historical averages for Guntersville the first couple weeks of October indicate a high of just about 80 and a low just below 60. After a southern summer it will sure feel like a welcome fall. Hope it turns out that way.

Here's a serious question, as the G. Rally approaches. Will I be able to bring on board the plane a few HB frogs? I have been reading that fishing lures are ok to bring on your carry on if the lures are packaged and wrapped securely. But...

Lou don't bring any hooks, any cutters or anything. Some stuff is allowed but the people working at security can use their discretion. It's not worth getting into a situation where you begin getting questions and have to submit to the algorithm. There's lots of good guys who have lots of stuff and just budget a few bucks to grab some stuff there.

I have been working grass heavily the last month and have found out I love bladed jigs, need practice with frogs, and swimbaits rock in grass.
Almost ready for " THE " grass lake.

Never jigged over there this time of year, but may be good on the shell beds :-*
If they move water and we get a little sprinkle, hang on baby, I'll be settin close ;) ;D
Our first year there, jigs with a craw trailer and t-rigged worms were the ticket. Most of our fish came out of Mill Creek that year.

ATTN: RALLY ATTENDEES. I still would like to do the traditional rally video again this year even though I won't be there. I will take photos from the website that you post during the event time. If you shoot any video I would like to have it and will include it in the video if possible. As is tradition a thread will be opened in the rally forum to post your reports and pictures from the rally. Remember some of what happens at Guntersville does not stay at Guntersville. It is always fun to look back on the past videos and relive some of the fun and memories. It is also good for the rally goers as well as some of them tend not to remember all of the details for a month or two afterward.

Quick question, never fished Guntersville before, is it considered a clear or murky/brown water lake? Starting to think about what lures to bring
1-3 feet clarity depending on where you are. at times maybe a bit more.
then again, I spend most of my time on the upper end.
down on the lower end, I think it's quite a bit better.
I'd call it clear without being 'gin clear'. should be a bit of green stain to it, but not the algae bloom thing
Whys everyone so worried about the fishing? It's the drinking yall better be worried about!

Since Lou and I are gonna be flying in on Thursday, and some of yall will apparently already be there...is anyone gonna be interested in A) A trip to The Tackle Trap...and B) Getting some food to bring back to the cabin for meals? I figured we could make one trip out, and I wanted to be able to pitch in to some tasty meats or something while we are there. I know Joe is always good for that trip, and Lou has never been to Alabama, let alone The Tackle Trap. I know there is a really good Sports Bar around the corner that has really good fried catfish! ~c~
I think Joe's got Thursday night's meat part of the meal down, I've got Friday night and we'll do some grillin' on Saturday night. Veggies and breakfast we'll have to get there.

There's a frog party goin' on in my tackle locker. The Pro-Z Frogs have all arrived along with their cousins the Buzz Frogs. Trailer inspection today, check and grease the hubs. Starting to get the gear in order. Accidentally deployed one of my PFDs so I had to re-arm that this morning and ordered another spare re-arming kit. Updates complete on my boat computer, still need to check for updates for the graphs and Ultrex. Excitement building. ;D

All's ready here. Since we'll likely be doing some night fishing I went ahead and upgraded to the new Garmin/Navionics 2019 maps in addition to the Garmin Ultra maps. Lessor chance of any surprises running in the dark.

one reason I don't go out after dark: folks running at night. on (to them) strange lakes.
lots of 'first timers' on the area lakes. feels kinda dicey.

I'm actually pretty careful, even with the electronics. I'll get on plane but 30-35 is usually my comfort level.
Oh, so a few of ya are in for some midnight fun? Damn, this could get interesting! Moon phase sucks though. Probably wont be good.

just keep tabs on stuff. they do tend to shut down current and I imagine that might change things up a bit.
but it does look like weather's about the heat back up for coming week.
very little rain for past few weeks. supposedly fish are transitioning to fall patterns.

If you stay in the middle over in my area no issues
Also, day or night, keep an eye out for kayak fisherman. Most have a flag or three but some don't. There's been an influx of them lately. Nothing against kayaking so keep your eyes peeled.
Everyone staying in cabins please read!

The Guntersville Rally has always been something very special. Not so much because of the fishing, although it is great also. The real thing is the connection with friends that you may have never met. It always amazed me how a group of anglers can be together for a few days and become blood brothers so quickly. It is a connection like no other.
There is something at the rally for everyone. Even us old guys have a nice time even though we may not be as rowdy as the younger crowd. Lots of fishing, Lots of eating, lots of drinking both hard or soft or store bought or homemade. It is totally up to you how you participate. Like others have said you actually have to attend to fully understand and appreciate just how special these events truly are. Be prepared to laugh a lot and or shake your head in total dis belief of some of the happenings.
Once you attend you will understand why this annual fall pilgrimage certainly will compel you to attend each year thereafter.

I've been reading, listening: not sure 'age' is a guarantee of adult hood. ;D
for what it's worth, my personal motto is 'i have to grow old; i do NOT have to grow up!'
Just another thought, might want to bring a lawn chair for the porch. Doubt the cabin has enough for all of us! Unless you plan on sitting on your cooler, which is a pain to move to grab a beer or some vittles!
we're bringing four, wouldn't hurt to bring a few more

Roger. Typical and UB rally's don't usually line up lo
Better chance to have better weather. I'm suggesting mid October.

deep ledges can be anywhere from 14 - 20 feet.
the river gets over 50 feet in spots the closer you get to the dam.
but also, there are a lot of small humps that go to about 6 feet with the grass just under the surface and drop off sharply into rock or old road beds
I dont fish anything deeper than 5ft.

I second that!!!
part of that key has to be chickamauga drawing down to winter pool. so about mid Oct they start spilling more water and more constantly. given it doesn't just go down to Nick/Guntersville and stop/hold, that current ought to get things moving.
keeping levels up and moving. mats really get 'good' in Oct/Nov anyway. and weather's not that bad. air temps might be a bit cooler than some want, but water temps will moderate that and it's pretty pleasant out there.
on a different note: guntersville catches a lot of wind. chickamauga doesn't. a day on the Chick with double-digit winds is abnormal, and then, given it's orientation, lots of places to stay out of wind if needed.
I'll be waiting to hear what Princeton Man has to say from his quick visit.
I understand that Guntersville is a world class bass fishing destination, But.....has anyone given any thoughts towards moving the rally up to Tennessee perhaps at Chic or one of the other great locations up thataway?

bud: right now, chick is fishing tough. water temps are still well up in 80s. fish are, a lot of them, off the ledges and filtering with the shad into fall patterns. in about a week or two, with overnights supposed to be getting into the 50's, it's supposed to be 'on'.
still, big fish are caught. they do live here.
we're only about a 2 hours up the road from where you all are staying. not a far drive at all. easy enough to take a day day trip.
the big girls, though? DEC-JAN-FEB-MAR
same as Guntersville.
I'd be game for a TN trip too, but it is fun to hit lakes I haven't fished
Coldfront. I still want to go there one day. My thinking is I would probably hire Jake Davis to guide me to the good spots. Don't want to spend the time needed to find the fish myself. It does not have to be Chic just someplace to find brown fish. It has been a long time since I have had the pleasure that smallmouth can bring to the party. Thinking back it has been about 30 years since my smallmouth fishing days.
You know Jake gonna carry you to Tim Ford's ~roflmao

I'm basically all set, as per Lee's instructions, each of my reels serve a specific purpose, and the countdown clock is winding down. Looking forward to meeting everyone. For those of you who are meeting LMG for the first time in person, I'm sorry.

Did you get all those vodka bottles up into the loumidor? You had better stand on the plane.
