The warm winter has been good and bad so far this year. The good part is it has been great weather to fish in, the bad part is that it has slowed down our big bass bite. Each year we look forward for a little cold air to help bring bigger fish in from the open lake so they can start their spawning cycle.Capt. Eddie PerryJan 29th, 2016
February is here and the Lake Okeechobee fishing is off the hook. We are catching huge numbers of bass and the size has been pretty good. Fish from three to six pound are coming to the boat as fast as you can reel them in and we have been mixing a few really big ones in to make this one of the best fishing destinations in the world.

Recent rains have raised lake and stream levels considerably. The Peace River spiked by 5-ft this past week though itâs returning to normal levels quickly. Other streams such as Fisheating Creek and Arbuckle Creek also saw a major spike in flow rates. Okeechobee EditionJan 22nd, 2016

The Big-O is in its fall pattern right now, but winter is right around the corner. Water temperatures have been in the high 70s and low 80s which are great temperatures for catching just about everything on this lake. Bass fishing has been very good with live shiners, but very tough with artificials.Capt. Eddie PerryDec 30th, 2015
So far the Lake Okeechobee duck season looks as if it is off to a slow or late start. There seems to be more hunters than ducks. Those few flocks that are spotted in December were getting sky blasted by trigger happy hunters. Capt. Chris ChesleyDec 30th, 2015
