Fishing near Lake Martin
Bass, crappie and striped bass. Pontoons and wake boats are common for lake living.
Where Lake Martin boaters launch and cruise
The lake has hundreds of miles of shoreline and many coves and creek arms, including Kowaliga Bay and Wind Creek State Park. Alexander City and Dadeville are the nearest towns.
Built in the 1920s by Martin Dam, the lake is known for its clean, clear water and for Chimney Rock, a popular cliff-jumping spot. Lake homes line much of the shoreline, many with covered boathouses where pontoons and wake boats sit on lifts between weekends. Striped bass are a big draw in the cooler months.
Choosing the right battery
Pontoon boats
A pontoon spends more time idling and anchored than running, so the engine has little chance to recharge the battery. Plugging in a charger after every trip, or switching to lithium with its faster charge acceptance, keeps a pontoon ready for the next evening cruise around the Tallapoosa River.
Watersports boats
Watersports boats around Lake Martin often have audio systems that can drain a battery fast. A 12V lithium house battery gives long runtime without risking your start.
Bass boats
Freshwater boats around Lake Martin often go years on lead-acid batteries, but when it’s time to replace them, consider a 24V or 36V lithium setup. Measure your battery trays first, and check your trolling motor’s voltage. If you stay with lead-acid, choose deep-cycle batteries for the trolling motor and a true starting or dual-purpose battery for the outboard.
Battery care for Lake Martin boats
Lake-house boats sit at docks between weekends. Keep batteries charged or use a battery switch.
If you store your boat over winter, charge batteries fully first. Lithium batteries can sit for months with little loss; lead-acid batteries should be kept on a maintainer.
Southern reservoirs get hot in summer, and many boaters use them year round, with a slower season in winter. A boat that sits for a few months should have a maintenance charger or have its batteries disconnected.
