Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report: Bass Bonanza and Crappie Crushers in the Sunshine State

  • Résumé

  • Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Okeechobee fishing report for March 11, 2025.

    We've got a beautiful day ahead of us with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-70s. Sunrise was at 6:37 AM and sunset will be at 6:28 PM. There's a light breeze from the southeast at about 5-10 mph, which should make for some nice ripples on the water.

    The bass bite has been on fire lately! Anglers have been reporting excellent catches of largemouth, with many fish in the 4-6 pound range and a few real lunkers over 8 pounds. The spawn is winding down, but there are still some big females hanging around the beds. Crappie fishing has also been productive, with limits of specks being caught in the deeper grass edges.

    For bass, plastic worms and creature baits have been the ticket. Junebug and black/blue have been hot colors. Topwater action has been good early in the morning with buzzbaits and walking baits. As the day progresses, switch to flipping heavy cover with jigs or Texas-rigged soft plastics. For crappie, small jigs tipped with minnows have been the way to go.

    Live shiners are always a great choice for big bass, but artificial lures have been holding their own. Some of the best producers have been 10-inch Zoom Ol' Monster worms, Gambler Big EZ swimbaits, and 1/2 oz. black and blue Medlock jigs.

    A couple of hot spots to check out are the Monkey Box area on the west side of the lake and Harney Pond on the northwest side. Both areas have been producing good numbers of quality fish.

    Remember to stay hydrated out there and keep an eye on the weather. Tight lines, everyone!
