This is from Field and Stream
Alabama
State record: 16 pounds 8 ounces, Thomas Burgin, 11/3/87, Mountain View Lake
Best water: Lake Guntersville. “We’re not sure why, but Guntersville escaped the problems that largemouth bass virus caused in other lakes, so it’s been the best lake for bass and big bass for several years, and its future looks good as well.”
—Nick Nichols, assistant chief of fisheries, Alabama Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries

Sleeper: Lake Weiss. “It has the highest angler success rate in the state, and now it’s producing some big fish thanks to Florida stockings.”
