Logan Martin Lake, Reservoir near Birmingham, Alabama
Logan Martin Lake extends across 17,000 acres along the Coosa River, featuring 275 miles of shoreline and depths ranging from 35 to 110 feet.
The construction of Logan Martin Dam started in 1960 and completed in 1964, named after William Logan Martin Jr, an Alabama attorney general.
The lake has hosted multiple national fishing tournaments, including three Bassmaster Classic championships in 1992, 1993, and 1997.
Five public boat ramps provide access to the lake, with full pool water levels maintained from May through October for recreational activities.
Local residents refer to this water body as the Lake of a Thousand Coves due to its numerous inlets and tributaries branching from the main channel.
