At times, Lake Eufaula bass seem a bit confused in September. You can catch them from shoreline grassbeds, and on the same trip you can catch some bass 30 feet deep on ledges, so it can be confusing to try to figure out a consistent pattern. You will have to try a variety of things…
Eufaula: Level: Full pool. Temp: 87 degrees. Clarity: Clear to a good stain. Bass: Capt. Sam Williams reports, “The water level is staying steady and cooling off a little causing the fish to settle in some better. The shad are becoming active again, and we had a late mayfly hatch in August. The shallow bass stayed…
Eufaula: Level: 0.8 below 190. Temp: 90 degrees. Clarity: Good stain. Bass: Capt. Sam Williams reports, “We have finally begun to get some much-needed rain and the water level is holding fairly steady. The hot weather makes it really miserable to fish a full day. The bite slows before noon, and it’s time to find…
Eufaula: Level: 0.5 feet below 188. Temp: 90 degrees. Clarity: Some stain. Bass: Capt. Sam Williams reports, “The warm weather has arrived, and early and late fishing is the most comfortable for fishermen.

Sam Williams reports, “The water is finally trying to clear up after the storms and heavy rain here and north of us. The generators have been running nearly around the clock and that helps to clean up the water…
Lake Eufaula has long been deemed the Big Bass Capital of the world. And though she is fishing a little stingy this spring so far, there are still more than a handful of big bites to be had on this 45,181-acre impoundment along the Chattahoochee River. The talk around town is that the recent spraying…
Eufaula: Level: 0.4 feet below 190. Temp: Upper 50s. Clarity: Good stain. Bass: Capt. Sam Williams reports, “The water level has been holding for the past two weeks. This is giving the bass an opportunity to begin to fan out their beds. We are seeing new beds fanned out but no fish holding on them yet.…
Eufaula: Level: 0.5 feet below 190. Temp: Low 50s. Clarity: Muddy. Bass: Capt. Sam Williams reports, “The winter weather patterns and storms have kept the water very muddy from mid river to the north.
