Fisheating Creek Fishing Report 5-31-2011

It was another beautiful day in south florida. With the water level getting so low it is getting harder to find nice places to fish. The wind was out of the north at 10-15 mph and it was slightly overcast. I started my day with a silver and blue Rat-L-Trap lipless crankbait. This crankbait is built well. They are very durable and the hooks are wide gap. After catching a couple fish I decided to switch over to my Orange craw Redeye Shad. They Orange craw caught me somemore bass. The wind picked up to 20mph. I fished another 1hour with plenty of bites but no more hook ups.

On the right side of my page just above my profile picture I have added a fishing store for my guests to purchase fishing equipment to use at your local fishing holes. And as always comment on my posts and give any advice you can think of. Tight lines

Fishing Report for Eagle Bay 5-27-2011

Let me start by saying that today was a wonderful day on the water. It felt good to be back in the boat fishing. Well we launched at 8:30 am. I fished the whole way down the canal going to Eagle Bay. I started out using a Strike King's  Redeye Shad lipless crankbait in a Bleeding Gizzard color Pattern. The bass were loving this lure. Within 10 minutes and about a 20 yard stretch I was up to four bass . The water level is so low that it is exposing some really good areas that would normaly hold some bass. I wish i could have fished these areas while the water was higher. I continued my trip down the canal catching many fish on the way. By the time I got down to Eagle Bay the clouds started to roll in. Today we were supposed to have a 40% chance of Thunder storms. It was in the mid 80's and breezy. With it starting to get darker out I switched over to an Orange Craw color pattern Redeye Shad. I also started using some creature baits with 1/8 oz bullet weight. I was able to catch a few bass on the creature baits. The rain started to fall and the topwater bite turned on. My wife was using a Pop-R Rebel and she was slaying the bass along the weed line. We fished for 7.5 hrs and between the four of us we ended up catching more then 50 bass. I would say that we had a very productive day. Below is a video I produced of me fishing. Enjoy and Tight Lines.

Low Water Levels on Lake Okeechobee 5-26-2011

Well The lake has hit a new low water level since the drought of 2007. Rainy season is upon us, but is having a hard time dropping some rain on Lake Okeechobee. Most of My shallow water bass holes are dried up mud now. The bass are now moving to deeper points on the lake. The outside edge of the Cattail and Bulrush are holding some good size bass. If you can find areas of submerged vegetation then you can count on catching many bass. Bass should be starting to school. They will be chasing minnows and small shad. Always remember when you are dealing with schooling bass to throw multiple casts to the area where you caught your bass, chances are you will catch another one or two. Throwing lipless crankbaits is working very well around the lake and rim canal. My good friend Grant has been slaying some big bass using Rat-L-traps and wacky worms. Just remember to imitate the food they're eating, and they will bite.

Lock 7 Fishing report 3-15-2011

Well I fished Lock 7 today with my friend Charles. I launched my Jon Boat at 7:30 am with a slightly clear sky and very soft breeze. I headed down government cut to get to our fishing pier. I started fishing across from the pier in some shallow water cuts with pencil grass, bull rush, eel grass and kissimmee grass along with dead tree bushs. This was the perfect spot to fish. It had every kind of cover you could think of. It was anywhere from 6" to 2' foot of water in that area. I spotted about 15 different beds in the area. Some of which were tilapia beds mixed with bass beds. I started throwing a spinnerbait with no luck so i began throwing my swimbait. I was using bitter's baits Naked Swimmer 4.5" swimbaits. I was using 4 different colors patterns ( Native Shiner, Mardi Gras, Bluegill Shad and Junebug ). I caught 7 bass in that area ranging from 10" to 16" . I was hooked up on 6 that got off before getting them into the boat.

   After a few hours I moved to an open water area with a large eel grass flat mixed with Hydrilla and bullrush. This is a well known bass bedding area. About 2 weeks back my wife caught some nice bass in this area which included a 6lbr and two 5lbrs. I switched over to a Junebug color Zoom Horny Toad. I was able to pull out a nice 3lbr about 5 feet from the boat. After a few there was a breeze starting to roll in from the SW. I switched over to my spinnerbait agian. I hooked into some nice ones but was unable to bring them in. It was not a bad day of fishing for my 4 hour trip. I am working on my video for youtube that shows todays fishing trip.

Weather Conditions 3-09-2011

Well the sun is shining and the Temp is around 80' but the wind is blowing hard at 15-25 mph with gusts reaching 30 mph from the ESE. we are in prefront conditions right now. Tomorrow a cool front is going to be pushing through with rain storms. the temp will drop a few degrees in the afternoon and be a little chilly around the mid 50' during the night. This wind is going to have the bass pushed up in the bull rush and other structure looking for the bait fish. good luck and tight lines.
