Lake Alice

Lake Alice sits in Forsyth County and is classified as a reservoir; I would pick one promising area near the launch as the first section and keep fishing it until I see a pattern develop in the first few casts. For the opening part of the day, I would keep working one easy-to-read area near the launch until I see a pattern develop in the nearby water, because moving constantly makes a lake harder to read.

Lake Alice Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Lake Alice does not have a dependable set of published size and depth measurements, so I would wait until a current management document publishes a figure before trusting a number and stay around one manageable piece of water until I see a pattern develop in the first hour.

Fishing This Water

Public fish information tied specifically to Lake Alice is sparse, so I would start with one versatile setup with a jig, spinner, and bait rig around one nearby piece of water and avoid specializing until I get a useful answer from the first setup. The first trip to Lake Alice is easier to read when the tackle stays simple around one short section of bank, at least until I get a useful answer from the first adjustment.

A Practical Lake Alice Game Plan

If I were seeing Lake Alice for the first time, I would work one sheltered section of bank with only a few dependable baits and change depth before changing every bait after I get a useful clue from the first few casts. If I get a useful clue from the nearby water, I would stay around one straightforward section of bank on Lake Alice and use that clue on the next similar stretch. After I get a useful clue from the first hour, I would leave Lake Alice knowing that one promising shoreline stretch deserves another look before I start searching somewhere else.
