The city of Guntersville sits on a 69,000 acre lake, Lake Guntersville, which is the biggest lake in Alabama. The lake is maintained and managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority which brings an abundance of jobs to the local area. Bass anglers from around the country recognize this lake as one of the best in the country and many publications put this lake as the third best bass fishing lake in America.
