Need a little advice in South Florida

Featured Replies

Hi guys, i have a friend coming from Amsterdam who loves to fish. Originally i wanted to take him to Chokoluskee, but it looks like there's going to be an ENE wind which makes it dicey out there. 

 

The plan now is to Bass fish. I live pretty close to Sawgrass Park , Holiday park and about 30 mins from the Holey lands. I'm not much of a bass fisherman but have a general idea of what to do. That said, I have never been to any of the three spots. I have a flats boat with a trolling motor. Where do I have the best chance of putting him on some fish this weekend? 

This weekend in alligator ally most of my fish came from a junebug colored ribbon tail worm(3/8 oz bullet weight) and some, not that many, on a wacky senko.

I'd go to the Holey Lands, a lot less pressure out there, and the fish are locked into the canal banks, no flats to escape way bank into.

Ended up going to the holy lands. Got 5 small bass but conditions were tough. Winds gusting to 30 knots

Tough to fish slowly from the boat, when the winds are gusting to 30+.

Close to impossible.
