How's Okeechobee fishing?

Featured Replies

I'm going to take a not-so wild guess, you're looking for information for your fantasy fishing, not a planned trip there.;)

Dingdingdingding...I think we have a winner. You guessed correctly that this post was about fantasy fishing and not actual fishing. 

12poundbass, I think I can help you.  Word on the street is that the water level on Okeechobee was raised about 25 feet, so now all of the grass is way underwater.  All of the big fish are being caught either dropshotting or with helicopter lures.  I would suggest you load up your fantasy team with guys who have never fished in Florida and who specialize in vertical fishing.  The easiest way to identify those anglers is to find the ones with the lowest percentage next to their name.

 

Good Luck!!

Man that helicopter lure is deadly this time of year at Okeechobee. Guides down there throw nothing but it.

I'm thinking out side the box on this one and I'm going to pick the guys who specialize in trolling! Just keep that between me and you though! ?

The fish are in what I like to call the "Water Pattern". You throw a bait in the water and you may or may not catch a fish. ;)

Lake Okeechobee is a great place for anyone to get a new PB of +8 pounds:D
