Weekly Okeechobee Fishing Report: Dec. 11-13

Finally some cool weather has set upon us with most of the area seeing upper-50’s to low 60’s at night. According to all pundits, this is exactly what we have been waiting for to turn-on the fishing. The north and west sides of Lake Okeechobee have been on fire for shiner fishermen these last few weeks so expect conditions to improve on the rest of the lake. Dec 10th, 2015

Weekly Okeechobee Fishing Report: Dec. 4-6

Another weekend and yet another weather front is to play a dominate roll in this weekend’s fishing. When venturing out this weekend you’ll need to have a Plan A, B, and C prepared for the changing conditions. High winds and some rainy periods may cause you to shift gears a few times this weekend.

Lake Okeechobee North End Fishing Report: Dec. 2015

Every month when I write this report I start with the bass fishing and move onto whatever else is biting, not this month. We're gonna start with the Speck fishing. Specks are moving into the edge of the grass lines, but your best bet still remains to drift the open water. Catches of 12-inch and up fish are caught daily with numbers in the 20 to 25 range.Nov 29th, 2015

Lake Okeechobee South End Fishing Report: Dec. 2015

December is here and it is finally starting cool off a little here in South Florida and the bass here on Lake Okeechobee are moving into spawning areas from the main lake. The fishing has been really good the past month and has been getting better almost daily. Nov 29th, 2015

Peace River – Port Charlotte Fishing Report: Dec. 2015

Along with the holiday season comes cooler weather here in sunny Southwest Florida. Water temperatures are falling down into the sixties and seventies, pushing the schools of baitfish that we depended on during the summer and fall months in search of warmer waters.Nov 29th, 2015

Fort Myers Fishing Report: Dec. 2015

December is the Holiday Season and a time for remembering the past, which brings me to the subject of antique fishing reels and all the questions I get about them. In the old days, pre-internet that is, determining what a reel, lure, or old rod was worth used to be simple to figure out. Nov 29th, 2015

Highlands Fishing Report: Dec. 2015

I've had the opportunity to spend quite a bit of time on the area lakes since the last edition of the Coastal Angler, fishing for both bass and crappie, and both have been tough situations. Nov 29th, 2015

Palm Beach Kayak Report: Dec. 2015

Well I’d like to hope December will bring some cold fronts, but we will have to see since November felt like June. Coming into the winter months when water temperatures drop, targeting areas that warm quickly like docks, mangroves and potholes will be the best bet. We do a lot of sight fishing this time of year when the water clears and finding pot holes is a breeze. Nov 29th, 2015

Weekly Okeechobee Fishing Report: Nov. 20-22

The weather for this weekend will be cool and unstable but the fishing should be hot. I don’t know about you but I always love fishing in sloppy weather so long as the lightning is held in check. The long range forecasts indicate that this will be the end of our unseasonably warm temperatures and a return to seasonable temperatures which means cooler nights and falling water temperatures which will ignite the fishing bite. All reporting stations can’t wait for next week’s cooler temperatures. Nov 19th, 2015
