Capt. Mike Jones has had great success with some really nice quality fish as well as quantity. Capt. Mike has concentrated on the north end as of late and has had some great trips with both artificial and shiners alike. On days with the wind blowing hard Capt. Mike has still managed to have great days throwing spinnerbaits and…
Bass fishing the “BEST” lake in the world is simply awesome. Although lake Okeechobee may not have many of these giant fish that some lakes have, we do however have the largest quantity of 6-10 lb fish in the United States. Not every single trip get’s to catch a giant but most trips will find…
It was my great privilege to have Earl Goodman and his grandson Max down to fish with me on the morning of Dec. 27. This was Earl’s second trip with me and let’s just say if I could patent the way Earl sets the hook, I would make millions of fishermen happy. We always have a…
Warmer weather and light winds have recently created ideal conditions for both Bass and Crappie fishing on the Big “O”. The best method method for catching Crappie has been drifting with live minnows out in the main lake around shell beds and slight contour changes in the bottom.

Ray Herbert and brother-in-law Jason had a great day yesterday with Captain Chase, both catching some really nice fish as well as good numbers. Jason fired up the morning with a solid 5+ pound-er (not a bad way to start out the day). However, it was Ray that at the last spot late in the…

We ended up burning 4 dozen shiners finishing up right as the sun was setting. Boyd ended up catching the afternoons biggest fish pushing in the 6…
What an amazing week of fishing. This week I had the pleasure of fishing with Frank and Robert from Melbourne, FL and we caught the fire out of them. We fished two half days and the fishing was about as good as you could ask. Day 1 Frank caught a 9.01 lb toad as we like…
The battle between brothers Zane and Atlin Hall was in full force Wednesday morning here on the Big “O”. But what can you say about brotherly love besides its one of a kind. What a blast fishing with Jason Hall, sons Zane and Atlin Hall and Uncle Jamie Coker. The day started off a little…
