Feeshrman, We haven't chatted in a long time. Hope you are doing well.
I believe you are talking about the area below Smith Lake Dam. Smith lake is roughly between Huntsville and Birmingham. Following link might provide some basic helpful info to get you started:

I am certain others more familiar will jump in.

Fishing is a privilege...catching is a bonus. Enjoy each precious moment we have to experience our great outdoors!
