First Things First
This map is all about the Coosa. It includes places to eat, marinas, public boat launches, and current fish consumption advisories.
Water Temperature
Water temperature is the primary indicator for predicting fish spawning season. Pre-spawn starts in late winter or early spring, and bass feed with voracious appetites to plump up for spawn. On the Coosa, bass usually spawn in springtime when the water temperature rises to about 60 degrees. Post-spawn fish are headed back to the main channel or deeper waters.
