Gadsden straddles the Coosa River and Neely Henry Lake, giving the city's anglers quality bass water right downtown, with Weiss Lake a short drive northeast. Few Alabama cities this size sit so close to genuinely good bass fishing, from hard-fighting Coosa River spotted bass to solid largemouth.

Neely Henry runs right through Gadsden, with riprap, bridge pilings, seawalls, and creek arms all within easy reach.

Gadsden anglers have a nice choice: fish Neely Henry at home, or run northeast to Weiss for shallow Coosa largemouth. Shane guides both, call or text and he'll help you pick the day that makes the most sense.
