The largest factor in finding fish on Pickwick Lake is water current. Produced by power generation at Wilson Dam, current stimulates forage which, in turn, stimulates predatory fish into feeding. Current breaks, slackwater areas adjacent to moving water, and any structure that interrupts current flow should be concentrated on and fished carefully. Fish position themselves in low flow areas facing into the deflected current.
Please be advised that Pickwick Lake is contained within three states, Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee, and each state may have their own rules and regulations governing fishing their respective portion of the lake.
