It is well known that Florida is home to a wide range of non-native plants and animals. The Burmese python is one of these that has established a foothold.Sep 29th, 2015
I know it's been a long hot summer but we're seeing some ducks early this year. Teal have been available early and late in the day along with some nice bass. The problem has been the heat, nobody wants to be out on the lake too long.Sep 29th, 2015
As summer begins to draw to a close, bass fishing enters a new chapter in south-central Florida and specifically at Lake Istokpoga. Water temperatures in the high 80’s and even the low 90’s in some areas will begin to cool and the baitfish, which seemed to disappear during the summer months will become much more evident in the shallower water as bass begin their seasonal migration, eating everything in sight in preparation for the cooler months ahead and eventually the spawn.

My first fishing rod was a hand-me-down from my father back in the 60’s. A 6’, medium action spinning rod, coupled with a Mitchell 300 reel was all I needed to tackle bass, walleye and panfish. Sep 29th, 2015
Lake Okeechobee is alive and well. Water levels are rising and that is a good thing, but what’s even better is that it is rising slowly. This helps the vegetation to keep up with the water as it rises and doesn’t die off because of higher water. Sep 29th, 2015
October has arrived here in Florida and that means pumpkins, Halloween, and the start of cooler weather for some much needed relief for bass and man. It has been another very hot summer here in Florida but we have had a good amount of rain and the water level is going to be high enough to get us through the winter and spring.Sep 29th, 2015
