Since October of 1993, there has been a 9-inch minimum length limit on crappie. Another good fishery in Aliceville Reservoir is bream fishing. Bream provide good summer and fall angling in backwater and cove areas in the lower section of the reservoir around weed beds. The best fishing for bass, crappie, and bream occurs in sloughs, around standing timber and weed beds, from February to June. The tailwater fishery is excellent for catfish, bass, crappie and freshwater drum.
Local anglers are generally pleased with the current tailwater fishery.
There is a tailwater-fishing pier located on Aliceville Reservoir. If you are a member of a bass club, please consider being a part of our Bass Angler Information Team .
