I have been fishing Lake Okeechobee alot more in the last year. Many times I have someone with me who cannot throw a baitcaster. I really need to add a couple of heavy cover spinning reels/rods to the arsenal. I need a setup that I can throw a big EZ or frog in heavy cover with a minimum of 40# braid. Rod needs some backbone. Any suggestions? I prefer Shimano.

Corey Nowakowski caught a 12#'er this weekend. There are alot of big ones out there. The reason that alot of people are coming up goose eggs on them is that everyone seems to be hitting the same holes. The guys who are killing it are hitting the out of the way spots. Palm Beach County is a good place to go on a killing spree. Like the avatar pic Diggy!

Yallare on a roll! WTG

That is awesome! I wish I could call in sick )

Robert and Mike you guys hit it out of the park!

Florida has over 30,000 lakes. Of those 30,000 lakes there are 7,700 over 10 acres. We also have over 11,000 miles of rivers and waterways. Combine all that fishy water and warm to mild weather and you have alot of happy fishermen.

Thanks. I'am definately fishing John's Lake once or twice.

Dink dropping 3.5#'ers and all them 5's.....that's awesome...... I thought I heard a growm man crying )

One of them federation teams had a big fish. I believe he said it was 10.19 #'s.

It was cool to see you as well. I know your were flying that Phoenix. Beautiful boat! We probably had around 20 fish. Left at noon to watch the game.

I will be in the Kissimmee area all next week. I will have my boat and am looking for some fresh ideas. Last year I fished Toho. It was a blast and I caught good fish for four days. This year I will fish Toho as well but I would like some fresh ideas for good fishing. Have any of you got some good ideas as to different bodies of water?

Those are studs!

Any lake or pond in the central Florida area will hold bass. I would use a senko, spinnerbait, shallow crankbait and a topwater to cover your bases. When will you be there?

Steve, thats classic!

It can be phenominal at times. Like one of the guys above said, the fish grow all year and the food source is unlimited.

Thats a big kicker! Congratulations Bruce.

Wow those are some fantastic fish!

MIghty fine fish. Love Buzz baiting!

Way to go!

Thats some great fishing!

That's a big fish no matter where your located. Congrats!

WTG Steve!

They are most likely armoured catfish and garfish.

Thats a great catch!
