Another great trip with my great friends from Hawaii Marlon and Arabelle. Marlon and his mom Arabelle have fished with me on 4 or 5 different trips and most of the time it’s for several days each time down. We had some decent success the first day and caught a pile of fish the second…
Wow!!!!! What a last couple of weeks with fishing. The big fish are feeding heavily now with all the fish in a post spawn mood. This is a great time to catch that fish of a lifetime as these big females are trying to put weight back on after the spawning season. We are starting…
I had the pleasure of fishing with the Puryear family on Saturday and then Sunday fished with Rick and Will. The trips were very similar with one trip catching 65 fish and the other catching 57. The Puryear family caught 65 fish up to 6lbs and the average fish weighed 3 lbs. This was the…
Captain Brad Gibson is catching some of the biggest crappie of his life this year, with good numbers in the mix as well. Trips have caught several crappie over 1 1/2 lbs with some catching fish in the 2 lb range as well. Trips have averaged 30-75 crappie depending on how long the trip is.…
I had the opportunity to fish with Laynce Nix twice over the last few days here on Lake Okeechobee and for Laynce’s first trip down, Lake Okeechobee didn’t disappoint. Laynce has spent the better part of the last 9 years playing MLB and most recently was with the Phillies. The fishing was a little tough…
Dale Uzmack brought his friend Don down from PA with him to fish for some giant Lake Okeechobee bass. Dale is one of those fortunate people to always seem to catch good fish and lot’s of them every time down, however, the latest trip was a little slow due to the bright blue bird skies and…
I fished with Jim and Dick from Palm Beach, FL on a beautiful 4 hour morning trip. I believe Dick ended up catching the biggest fish while Jim caught two that were just a little smaller. We had a great morning catching fish and telling a few stories along the way. I look forward to…
Over the last few weeks Lake Okeechobee has really been fishing great. Both the live bait and artificial bites have been very good but most of the great big girls have been caught on live bait. Some live bait 8 hour trips have been close to hitting the 100 fish mark with the average 8 hour…
Every once in a while you have a trip where everyone just catches fish and this was one of those days. Although it was tough for the first few hours the middle of the day and afternoon made up for the sub-par morning. Ronan and “The Chatterbait Kid” (Mak, Ronan’s brother) both had good days…
