Discover the ultimate bass fishing secrets at Bill Dannelly Reservoir, AL with our meticulously crafted fishing waypoints. Leveraging the power of Google Earth®, Garmin® HD Contours as well as other tools, we've pinpointed the most productive hot spots where bass thrive. Delve into the intricacies of the lake breakdown, as our waypoints lead you to strategic locations like laydowns, offshore spots, vegetation, channel swings, rock and drowned creek ditches, ensuring you're at the heart of the action.
Bill Dannelly Reservoir is a 17,200-acre U.S. Army Corps of Engineers impoundment of the Alabama River in Dallas and Wilcox counties, backed up by the lock and dam below Camden since 1969 and stretching upriver past Selma with roughly 500 miles of shoreline. It is rated excellent for both largemouth and spotted bass – largemouth in the backwater sloughs and creeks, spots on the main-river points and bluff walls – and also holds white and black crappie, blue catfish, channel catfish and striped bass. Our breakdown marks 625 waypoints, including 255 cover and structure spots (laydowns, channel swings, debris, stumps, standing trees, brush and hard spots), 155 offshore spots and ledges, 87 vegetation beds, 67 ditch and drain markers, 43 rock spots, 17 ramps and slabs and a bridge, plus 16 traced river and creek channels.
But that's not all – we've taken it a step further by uncovering offshore fishing hot spots. Explore creek channel swings, humps, ledges, drop-offs, and points that promise an exhilarating bass fishing experience. The simplicity lies in the seamless import of these waypoints into your fishing graphs, providing you with a hassle-free navigation experience.

On-the-Water Safety
On-the-Water Safety
Waypoints mark fishing structure, not safe travel routes. Brush piles, humps, ledges, rock, and attractors are exactly the kind of things a boat can hit. Many of the best spots sit in shallow or timber-filled water — idle in, watch your depth, and never run a straight line between waypoints at speed.
- You are the captain. Keep a proper lookout and run at a safe speed for the conditions, especially at night or in low light.
- GPS data can't guarantee obstacle clearance. Lake levels and structure change; a waypoint shows where something is, not that the water around it is safe.
- Looking for safe boat routes? Our Guide Lanes are verified navigation paths for select Texas lakes.
