Big Bass Fishing Season

One of the best parts about Lake Okeechobee Bass Fishing is the amount of fish you can catch all year long. We are coming up to our Big Bass Fishing Season where you can catch the numbers and quality you are looking for.

I had the pleasure to fish with Jim Robertson and his really good friend Bob Zigler traveling from Texas and Indiana. Jim comes out fishing with us quite a bit and will starting coming more once season starts.

Jim loves to keep track of all the fish he catches. He writes down all the numbers and sizes throughout the day. We had a lot of action on both live bait and artificial. The first day they caught 57 largemouth bass weighing up to 4 pounds.

Jim and Bob fished together for two days and then Jim came out with me by himself since Bob had to leave on the third. The second day was the best though. It was a dream day for them catching 93 bass.

Bob caught his new personal best weighing 8 pounds. You can’t beat days like this and many more are to come in this season.

Lake Okeechobee is beginning to turn on. Big bass are moving in and starting to feed up for the winter months and spawning. Make sure you do not miss out on your adventure this season and book with us today.

Great day with Captain Justin on his 19’ Nitro / 200 Yamaha. He put us on bigmouth bass, bluegill, and crappie, and he knows the fish, alligators, manatees, and Florida birds as well as he knows the water. Capable boat, knowledgeable captain — we’d go again.
