Gunterille question

I was born and raised in Guntersville and I've fished since I was big enough to cast. A LOT of my fishing has always been around Brown's Creek and Street's Bluff. I've noticed that some folks on here 'seem' to call Brown's Creek just the area on the south side of the Warrenton causeway. What I call Brown's Creek is both sides of the causeway and all the way to where the Brown's Creek channel meets the river channel. Am I just misreading some of y'all in your posts or what?

I'd say browns creek goes all the way to the river channel. Where is streets bluff? Why is fishing in browns creek different from the rest of lake guntersville? I never have success there when I'm catching lots in other parts of the lake? Do y'all fish humps flats bridges or how do you fish?

When I refer to browns creek Im talking about both sides of the causeway

Street's Bluff is the bluff way down on the left if you run the creek channel out to the river channel. I don't know why it's different but it sure can be. And I don't fish the humps, just the cove over by old County Park #2 and boathouses. I used to fish just out from the ball field on the river side of the causeway. Biggest shellcracker I ever caught/seen came out of there but the grass changed that whole area and I don't explore it any more..

When I say Brown's Creek I am only talking from the Causeway S and not out towards open water and the main channel.

i've always heard south of the causeway called Beech Creek and north side called Browns Creek, used to be a fish camp south of the power lines on the west side at the bridge called Beech Creek Fish Camp.....anyone else remember this

Yes, I remember the fish camp at Beech Creek. That property is high dollar residential now. And at the Warrenton end of the causeway was Moseley's Fish Camp. I went to school with the Moseley kids. Up Chalakee Road (behind the Charburger) was Street's Bluff Fish Camp and Ben Gilbreath, the man that ran it, said that my Grandaddy killed the last wild turkey in Marshall County back during the Depression.

so where is Beech Creek...is it the creek that runs under the bridge there at the old fish camp?

yep
