Dan Kenney from Go Fish T.V. is down shooting some shows for his up coming season. He fished Lake kissimmee a few days ago and picked up a couple over 8#'s. Today he and I fished Lake Okeechobee. We were down in the Moore Haven area. The area had been hot for a few months and then went ice cold on the last few times out. I was hesitant to go back this morning but it worked out well. Here is one of the fish. This one was 7 3/4#'s and the other was 8#'s. All were caught on a JD'sCustomBaits frog.

Nice Bass. I need to pick up some more frogs. The one he gave me at Lox last year is torn to shreads.

Must be rough to be fishing in shorts and light shirts in January 
Very jealous of those bookend hogs.

Shawnee, KS. Don't get to fish tournaments much because of work. I fish everywhere within about a 2 hour drive. I have a couple boats but nothing fancy. I spend a lot of time on smaller lakes but fish La Cygne, Melvern, and Perry quite a bit too.

Nice fish there. The wind can be brutal there, as I found out when I fished there. Wind was about 20-30 mph and got real cold one day.

I have developed a Love and Hate relationship with Lake Okeechobee. I have been humbled a few times out there with perfect conditions and had huge days when I least expected it. Your right about the wind out there....
