    Any tips for Wheeler, Wilson, and Pickwick ?

    My bass club is taking our annual fishing vacation to the Elk River Lodge this Sunday-Wed.

    I was hoping for any help but especially at Decatur Flats & at Pickwick. My dad & I have never caught any smallmouth & we heard that Pickwick is the place to go. I don't have a clue how to target smallmouth. I would like to get some info on D. Flats because I think that water is similar to what we have in my area of SW Alabama. Any help will be appreciated.

    I will be happy to swap info with anyone about our rivers in SW Alabama. I know Millers Ferry & Demopolis pretty well. You can email me at bketh@earthlink.net, but make sure to put fishing info in the title so I can find it in all my spam.

    Thanks,
    Ben Etheredge


    Good Luck & God Bless,

    Can't help you on Pickwick but on Wheeler right now the fish are wanting to dump so they are on points and flats going into spawning flats. The Decatur Flats are hot right now drag a rig with a green lizard and hang on. If you hang up the rig on a stump gps it and come back later with a jig. Look for the humps on the North channel of the flats. Good luck.

    Eric,

    We are planning one stopping by the Flats on our way north. We will be heading N on 65. What is the best / easiest launch to use? Thanks for your help.
