I am taking a trip to guntersville in late march and have never been there before. I would just like to know some general information what to throw, where do i even fish? beat the banks or offshore structsure?

Follow the Classic (Feb.21st)  on Bassmaster.com Im sure that will give you a few hints

never thought about that man appreciate it.

I too am going down to Guntersville for the first time in March. After doing some internet research back in Nov. I discovered that one of the best guides on Guntersville does " in your boat trips" I talked to him for about a half an hour on the phone, what a great guy. He doesn't fish, he just guides you, marks maps, will enter gps waypoints, A full day trip for $ 150 bucks. If your going to spend the bucks for a trip like that, do yourself a favor, hire a guide, it will make the trip that much more enjoyable and you learn what you just asked. Info: Guide Troy Jens. Phone:265 604 0344. e-mail troysoutdoors@gmail.com. Hope this helps you out. Good Luck.  Just to let you know, I have fished all over the south for the last 20 years and the #1 thing I have learned is hire a guide on your 1st. trip to a lake.

I agree with plumworm.....if you are making a trip of it go ahead and budget for at least half a day guided trip.  It will make it much more enjoyable and will greatly increase your chances of catching fish.  Now to answer your question the grass may be back in late March so fishing a Caroline rigged lizard or throwing the Rattle Trap would still be a good option.  Check out my Guntersville post in the fishing reports section and PM me if you want info on the guide I use.  I've been on 4 trips with him and we've always caught quality fish (over 7lber's two different times).  Good luck!
