Choccolocco Creek is a river fishing spot in Alabama, managed by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and located about 0.7 miles from the town of Jo Dell. It is a hard fishing destination, so plan on a challenge rather than an easy outing. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Anniston show October highs around 76°F with lows near 52°F, and April is similar at about 75°F by day and 51°F at night. Midsummer highs typically reach about 90°F. Several other outdoor spots lie within a short drive. Alisha Lane Trail, Thornberry Trail and Davis Mountain Trail are all within about 5 miles. Morgan Lake, a lake fishing area, is about 6.5 miles away.
