found them in the deeper water thanks for the help

ya ive been fishing the winter park and maitland chain with no luck

sorry didn't even think about that i do have a boat

i catch them all the time using regular crankbaits most come off of lipless crankbaits. I even got a good size crappie on a 4in jerk bait last winter

Hey guys, i have only been bass fishing about 9 months or so now and haven't a summer yet. Do you know any good lakes or rivers that they are biting on right now in the Orlando area. Also in general during the summer are they usually deeper? Any specific baits you throw in the summer? Thanks so much in advance.

my girlfriend lives on lake Florence haven't caught a lot of big ones but a bunch of lil guys is still fun too got one 4lber out of it. Do pretty well on the Winter Park/Maitland chain of lakes specifically there is a small "pond" between lake Maitland and Minehaha called lake Nina my dad has a friend that lives on it and has caught a few 10lb plus in it. Other than that for a little drive i do well on the st johns plus its nice to get away from civilization even if you don't catch anything nature is fun.

i just use a dehooker after watching the topfin of a channel cat go through my dads hand its just not worth messing with

ya i almost took it home then i realized i was fishing in lake maitland. there is so much runoff of chemicals i wouldnt eat anything out of there.

Id have to say patience. Waiting for the fish to take the bait, fishing worms slowly, etc.

Love your show Mike and id love for them to add WFN

purty fish very nice

maybe a brim then how big

if you caught it on hot dogs sounds like you caught a catfish

says your in ohio so i assume the water is cold so id buy some waders but if the waters warm i wouldnt bother with them

also learned alot here http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?virboard=Southeast;num=1253486034

im still new to bass fishing myself but since nobody else is responding i have had a lot of luck casting out weightless senkos (plastic worms). biggest thing is pay attention to what the fish are telling you if you see them top water try a top water lure if you see them chasing baitfish throw out a crankbait of something resembling a fish. they will tell you what they want to eat you just have to figure it out. I find senko's are a great place to start. as far as lakes what ever you have access to as long as it is decent size i know there are a lot of great ponds in oveido my buddy lives there and catches quite a few.

pretty fish looks about the same size as the one i got the other day i weighed maybe a lil bigger so 2.5 to 3 pretty fish though

cleared up this afternoon got out with my dad for a couple of hours and caught 3

isnt that diff pics of the same bass? about 4lbs

is that better in the rain?

haha very true

this rain is killing me its supposed to keep up all week too. luckily it stopped a few mins so i went out and caught a lil 2lber to get my fix.

anyone else try one of these http://floridakayakfishing.com/ ? my gf just bought me one for christmas a local guy makes them im waiting for the water to warm up a bit to catch something on them.

never caught a smb before but for lmb 3 maybe 3.5 the monster seen in my avatar lol caught him on a watermelon zellamander t-rigged on a 5/0 hook with yum attractant using 15# braid and 15# fluorocarbon leader. caught on a relatively small lake my girlfriend lives on lake Florance.

ive been using the albright knot and kept having it slip the modifier looks like it might help thanks
