Melvin Ward and his fishing buddy and long time friend Pat Brogdan from California Always wanted to Fish The Famed Lake Okeechobee, where the fishing has been excellent. The boys fished with wild Shiners, the entire day catching again over 30 Bass . Most of these were caught in the morning. due to the fact a cold front came through, after it had past the bite picked up again.Then it happened to Pat, he hooked into a 7.5 LB Okeechobee “HAWG” , never expecting it to be the size that it was because the Bass charged the boat and the fight wasn’t on until she was near the boat.
After they went through 3 doz. shiner Mathew caught a 6 lb. At this point the boys had over 20 Bass in the boat. We ran back got another Doz. shiner and what a good choice this was. On the third catch Mathew Battled a True Okeechobee “HAWG” and 8.5 LB. bucketmouth.
The day totaled around 30 Bass mostly all over 3 LB. We are now into our spawning season , which is is our busy time of the year. So booked your dates early and get out of the cold and come on down to Sunny Florida where the “Big Bass” are.Also plan on an extra day of fishing and catch some of Florida’s might Peacock Bass
