Lake Guntersville Fishing Trips
Book a guided trip on Alabama's premier trophy largemouth lake.
Lake Guntersville fishing trips with Captain Shane Ellis put you on one of the best trophy largemouth lakes in the country. This page is all about booking your day: trip lengths, what's included, and how to lock in a date. For a deep dive on the lake itself — seasonal patterns, where the fish live, and what makes it special — see the full Lake Guntersville bass fishing guide.
Choose a 4-hour half-day or a 6-hour full day. Both run from a fully equipped bass boat with all rods, reels, and tackle provided. Spring and fall offer the most action; winter is the season for a true giant.
⏱️
Half or full day
A 4-hour trip is great for a strong bite or fishing with kids; the 6-hour trip gives you maximum time to find and pattern fish.
✅
All-inclusive
Boat, rods, reels, tackle, and local knowledge included. Bring an Alabama license, clothes for the weather, and a cooler.
