Best Spots To Fish On Lake O

Featured Replies

Was wondering if anyone could give me some good spots to fish on Lake Okeechobee at this time. I'll be launching out of Clewiston. I know for beginners to look for different types of cover near each other, but just wondering where one might have the best luck in March? Any tips or help is appreciated.

Okeechobee is ever changing, between the winds and water level, sawgrass gets uprooted/floats, trails get clogged. Those fish move a lot or become inaccessible.  Water clarity has been really bad in certain areas to. Depending on what the wind will be like when you go, will determine, how and were you fish. In general the south side of the lake around Clewiston has been good lately. The west wall is also another popular area. I was out there yesterday and fished from belle glade to the west side of Ritta island. Deep in the flats the water clarity is clear but the grass/weeds make it difficult to hook up. The wind was calm enough yesterday  to fish the outside, closer to the main lake (which I did). the water clarity was dingy but I was getting bites. Caught one 5 lber and a few dinks. Oversized Stick worms and a topwater propbait was working for me.  There was a FLW event out there recently, you can read about techniques used on there website. Funny you mention to look for different types of cover near each other because that was the scenario when I caught the big one of the day.
