🌡️ Logan Martin Lake Water Temp: 78°F
This Logan Martin Lake outlook for September 7, 2026 comes straight off the water conditions: current water temp, the time of year, and the solunar windows. Use it to plan a good day, then let Shane fine tune it on the boat.
Surface water temperature on Logan Martin Lake is sitting around 78 degrees as of September 6. Reading sourced from LakeMonster.
That is prime summer water. Topwater at first light, then ledges, grass, and deeper structure once the sun gets up.
Best feeding windows this week rate out as very good. First light is about 6:23 am and the sun drops around 7:02 pm, and those edges of the day are usually your highest percentage hours.
Major periods (the strongest bite windows): 8:40 am to 10:40 am and 8:40 pm to 10:40 pm. If you can only fish part of a day, fish these.
Minor periods worth a cast: 3:10 am to 4:10 am and 3:10 pm to 4:10 pm.
Very good day. Solid major periods around the waning crescent. Hit the windows below and work first and last light.
Fall on Logan Martin Lake is a chase. As the water cools the bait moves and the bass follow it, often way up in the creeks and pockets. Find the shad and you find the fish, and a moving bait covers water until you do.
Expect to move around and cover water until you bump into a school. When you do it can be one after another. It is a fun time of year for anglers who like to run and gun.
If you want to skip the learning curve and just catch fish, that is what a guided trip is for. Shane runs the boat, rigs the rods, and puts you on the pattern that is working right now. All the gear is provided. You bring an Alabama fishing license and whatever you want to eat and drink.
Check the rates, then call or text to grab a date before the calendar fills up.
