Logan Martin Lake, located in east-central Alabama, is a 15,263-acre reservoir on the Coosa River that extends 48.5 miles from Logan Martin Dam upstream to Neely Henry Dam. Built by Alabama Power Company in 1964, this multi-purpose impoundment serves as both a hydroelectric facility and flood control project while providing exceptional fishing opportunities. The lake borders St. Clair and Talladega counties, sitting approximately 30 miles east of Birmingham, and maintains a summer conservation pool at elevation 465 feet. With its diverse habitat ranging from deep river channels to shallow coves and abundant underwater structure, Logan Martin has established itself as one of Alabama's premier bass fishing destinations.
