Learn Okeechobee
The only thing I can add is to be ready for up close, in your face, hand to hand combat! And to leave any pre conceived notions of what you THINK it will be like at home. I know there are a few amazing lakes in this country, but this is Okeechobee pal. If you get on them....Well, you'll see. Have fun Mike

Is there any tackle/gear that was better ~20 years ago?
Maybe not 20yrs but there was a time when all crank baits were made of balsa. I know some people think that todays molded plastic ones are better in some ways, given todays technology, but to me nothing ran truer with an action all thier own, than a pure balsa wood crank and/or jerk bait Mike

Trash Talking Mono??
I fished the exact same water you do for 30+ years useing the same equipment, rigged the same way, in the same areas of the same local salt water's everyone else does. I was not talking about fishing for red's, trout, snook etc. My preference for using what I do in my response was for bass in the waters I choose to fish now. In my old age I made a decision to commit to a dream to be a tournament bass angler almost exclusively now that I have the means and time. I may be doing it all wrong, if so I'll find out soon enough, but so far I certainly don't have any regrets.. Just trying to give the OP an different perspective. It's his choice to put any credence to it. Mike

Trash Talking Mono??
Well, I guess I'm the odd ball here. I don't use mono anymore for anything. Don't use leaders either. I just don't see the need for how and where I chose to fish. My line of choice is either braid 65# or 30# depending on what I'm doing and where. 12# Yo Zuri for all moving baits, and for the few times I use a finesse presentation 16# Sniper for all bottom contact. Am I wrong? Maybe... Sometimes I think I'm lowering my chances to have a better outing when the inevitable happens. We all have those days when we question our choices. Mike
