Many people travel to Florida every year to come and enjoy some of the best beaches in the world. What they are missing out on is the incredible bass fishing that can be had. You have to experience your first Okeechobee fishing trip next time visiting Florida.
I had the pleasure of fishing with Kevin, Luke and Travis. They were traveling from Ohio this season and wanted to experience something different. It was their first time ever on Lake Okeechobee. A Peacock Bass Fishing adventure in the Amazon was the only bass fishing they had ever done.
We had an amazing fishing trip. The action was incredible and more than anticipated. They went out on a quick morning trip and had a great time on the water.
Wild caught live shiners were the most effective bait to catch Florida Lake Okeechobee Largemouth Bass. Anchor rigs were highly successful. You have to let the bait marinate the water in order to produce a big bite.
Kevin, Luke and Travis caught over 50 largemouth bass on their fishing trip. Several quality bass were caught weighing 5 and 6 pounds. Along with these bass, Kevin caught a 7.22 pound largemouth bass to top the day off.
Water temperatures and fishing conditions were just right to produce an excellent fishing trip. I am looking forward to fishing with these awesome gentlemen next year. Don’t miss out on your Lake Okeechobee adventure today!
Lake Okeechobee Bass Fishing has been picking up. Florida largemouth bass are everywhere and are feeding steady. Now is a great opportunity to go House Boat big bass fishing right out of Clewiston, Florida.
I had the pleasure of fishing with Dave and Josh traveling from Ohio. Dave is a repeat of mine and loves to fish on Lake Okeechobee. Josh has never been on the lake and this was the perfect time to experience it.
They spent two consecutive days on the water here in Florida. We adventured out of Clewiston, Florida to House Boat Cut and the East Wall. Action was steady for both days and they landed big numbers on both days.
Dave and Josh caught over 100 largemouth bass. The biggest bass weighed 6 pounds. They also caught several 4-5 pound fish. You can’t beat the action here on Lake Okeechobee this time of year. Wild caught live shiners were the most effective bait to throw on this fishing trip.
I am looking forward to another great time fishing with Dave and Josh in the future. Don’t miss out on your adventure to come to Florida and catch some big bass!
Each destination on Lake Okeechobee has incredible things to offer. Florida Bass Fishing has been exceptional on Lake Okeechobee this season. A Kissimmee River fishing charter can help provide you with a true outdoor experience.
I had the pleasure of fishing with Bill and Mike. They were traveling from Central Florida to experience what Lake Okeechobee had to offer. Okeechobee City was the closest location to them. The North End is an excellent destination to catch quality largemouth bass.
We adventured out for a quick 4 hour fishing trip. Wild caught live shiners were the most effective using 4 dozen of them. We focused mainly on the Kissimmee River. During this fishing trip, the Gut or Pass was the most effective location.
The bass started to bite later than expected. Even though, we still caught several quality fish. Bill and Mike landed a 4.5, 4.7 and the biggest at 5 pounds. You can’t beat the action down here on Lake Okeechobee.
I am looking forward to fishing with Bill and Mike again in the future. Don’t miss out on your fishing adventure in Florida next time visiting!
Florida is one of the best places in the nation to come catch largemouth bass. Enjoy Double Bass Fishing Adventure next time you are visiting the state. Lake Okeechobee is starting to produce great fishing trips.
On my first trip out, I had the pleasure of fishing with Tyler and his Dad Greg. They wanted to explore Lake Okeechobee while the fishing conditions were clean and clear. We fished out of Harney Pond near the North End.
The bite was active the whole trip and they caught 50 largemouth bass. Water temperatures were at 75 degrees. Bass are continuing to transition to the flats to spawn. They had a blast catching Florida Largemouth bass with a giant in the boat weighing close to 7 pounds.
After this trip, I went out in the afternoon with Patty and Paul. They wanted to explore Lake Okeechobee during a late day bite. Fishing was great again with a lot of action.
Top water baits, flukes and speed worms near milfoil grass flats were effective in catching the largemouth bass. They caught some great numbers weighing up to 3 pounds.
Unfortunately they had a big one on and it broke us off. Don’t miss out on the action on Lake Okeechobee as it begins to pick up. We had a great time and I am looking forward to fishing with these people again soon!

Maverick and Evan were traveling from New York to come fish Lake Okeechobee. They adventured out on an afternoon fishing trip out of Belle Glade, Florida. It is awesome to have great friends on the boat. Fishing can be a great way to bond with those that are close to you. They always wanted to go fishing out of Slims Fish Camp where they can enjoy the wonderful hospitality of Tory Island.
After picking up 4 dozen wild caught live shiners from the tackle shop, we cruised out to a local fishing spot where the fish were biting. Maverick and Evan had a fishing trip of a lifetime catching some of their personal best largemouth bass. They put 30 bass in the boat on this memorable day. The biggest fish weighed 7.9 pounds. Everything was perfect along with amazing weather. Captain Mark is looking forward to the next opportunity to catch bass with them again.
According to Captain Mark, the fish are on the move. The next trip out of Belle Glade proved this to be true. Frank, Brian, Dave and Curt were traveling to the south end of Lake Okeechobee to enjoy catching Florida largemouth bass from West Virginia. Captain Mark pulled up to a very productive mat and the action was red hot from there using another 4 dozen shiners from Slims Fish Camp.
Frank, Brian, Dave and Curt also caught 30-35 largemouth bass on another gorgeous day on the water. Wild caught live shiners were the most productive bait to use on this fishing trip. In order to entice the bass, anchor rigs along the mat edge drew the fish to the bait. They truly enjoyed catching several quality bass weighing up to 7.94 pounds. It was a blast putting these great gentlemen on fish that they will remember for a lifetime.
After our trip, we went back to Slims to get an official weight on the big bass we caught as seen in our cover photo. Check out our video either on our Facebook or YouTube Page. Each Slims Fish Camp Fishing Report will provide an exceptional new look on how the fishing is on Lake Okeechobee.
Captain Mark adventured out on two more excellent fishing trips out of Slims Fish Camp the following days. Three brothers, Mitch, Todd and Greg were traveling from Ohio to crush some Florida largemouth bass. Over the course of two days, these awesome brothers landed 80 bass.
The main bait of choice on Lake Okeechobee if you are in search for trophy bass are wild caught live shiners. Mitch, Todd and Greg caught several quality largemouth weighing up to 6.8 pounds! I am looking forward to fishing with these amazing brothers again in the future.
