What do you prefer in the way of:
1) Plastic worms
2) Crankbait
3) Reels
4) Rods
5) Line
Please be a little indepth, such as colors of plastic worms, series type reels, length, action of rods, etc.
Thanks. Trying to get back into bass fishing after a 12 year absence. Any other tips, info would be helpful.

As for Lake Guntersville in my opinion its the best lake in Alabama…why do you think they always hold Bassmaster tournaments there.
For the most part, Guntersville is a shallow lake. There are many places out in the middle of the lake where you could jump in and keep your hair dry.
It has a lot of weeds, so I also keep a rig handy with braided line to work some worms or lizards through the thick stuff. Rat-l-traps have also been a good bait for me on the G.
I use “junebug” colored worms and lizards on this lake. Hope this helps. Good luck.
1.Plastic Worms= Berkley 7″ Powerbait original worm,(Colors=Red shad, Motor oil, Black/Blue fleck, Tequila, Pumpkinseed, Watermelon, Etc)
2. Crankbaits= Rapala, Cotton Cordell, Yozuri, Etc.
3. Reels= Mostly Shimano, Daiwa, Plfueger, Abu Garcia, & (inexpensive but durable), Mitchell.
4. Thats a tough Q without a “price-point”. If I could have a “G Loomis” for every rod I would! (lol) You need to give us an IDEA about how much you want to spend for a rod! We also need to know , baitcaster or spinning?
5. Berkley “Fireline” 4/10 in “smoke”, Stren Superbraid in “green” 6/20, Power Pro in “green” 6/20 Lb. The strength of 20 LB and the diameter of 4-6LB! These braided lines are excellent for sensitivity & tough as nails!
I just answered this same Q a couple days ago.
Check my “starred questions” for further info regarding good reel/rod combo’s for Bass.
PS: Berkley “Gulp” products are an excellent place to start when buying your soft plastic lures.
I like the Stwaberry colored worms.
Ratletrap for crankbait
Shimano or Ambassador
Trilene XT
