Lake Guntersville

[backinthesaddle]

Hey Guys, A buddy of mine asked me to fish a tourney with him on lake Guntersville. I have been out of the boat for a while ( aloooong while) and couldn't say no.
I was wondering what the lake is like, what the bite is like right now and what would any of you guys suggest? I have 5 rods, 3 casters and 2 spinners.
what line works best for different types of fishing? i.e. Carolina rig vs. spinner baits, are the bass going to be off the beds? we hit the water on the 17th. gonna try and pre-fish on Fri. Is the grass bad or a good thing on this lake?
I just have been away for toooo long. but now i am back and would like to at least make a good showing.

Thanks in advance
Oh yah we are going to stay at Covenant cove. the launch is close to or at this place.
