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

    Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report: Bass Bonanza and Crappie Crushers in the Sunshine State
    Mar 11 2025
    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!

  • Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report - February 2025: Ideal Conditions for Bass and Crappie

    Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report - February 2025: Ideal Conditions for Bass and Crappie
    Feb 15 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers, this is Artificial Lure here to give you the latest fishing report for Lake Okeechobee as of February 15, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the weather. Today, we're looking at a partly cloudy sky with a high of around 75 degrees Fahrenheit and a gentle breeze out of the southeast. Sunrise was at 7:04 AM, and sunset will be at 6:04 PM, giving us a good long day to get out on the water. The conditions are just about perfect for some prime fishing.

    Lake Okeechobee, affectionately known as the "Big O," is in prime condition for fishing right now. The bass and crappie spawn has been in full swing since last month, making this an ideal time to catch some big ones. The lake's shallow waters, rarely exceeding 9 feet in depth, are filled with diverse vegetation like bulrush, hay fields, and needle grass, providing perfect habitats for our target species.

    For bass fishing, you'll want to focus on areas like the Shoal from the Blue Hole up to just past the 2nd pole area and into the opening that leads into Moonshine Bay. The Monkey Box, Whidden's Pass, Dyess Ditch, Indian Prairie, and Tin House are also hot spots. If you're willing to make the run on a low-wind day, the east side around J&S is worth a try. Bass are being caught using live golden shiners, plastic worms, spinner baits, and frog-style baits. Flipping lures into the vegetation often produces the larger bass.

    Recently, anglers have been catching 5 to 10-pound bass regularly, and occasionally, 10 to 12-pound bass show up. The lake record stands at 15 pounds 5 ounces, so there's always a chance to catch a monster. Crappie catches have been plentiful as well, with many anglers reporting baskets full of these tasty fish. For crappie, areas like Dupree Bar on the north side, around Sportsman's, Indian Prairie, and the Kissimmee River are particularly productive. Jigs and minnows are your best bet for crappie.

    One of the standout areas right now is Clewiston, located on the Southwest shore of Lake Okeechobee. This area offers great fishing from both shore and boat, and the Monkey Box here is notorious for largemouth bass. Another spot worth mentioning is Moonshine Bay, which is fishable even on windy days and has seen some decent catches recently.

    For those targeting crappie, now is the spawning time of year, and jigging on or around the beds in the shallows is highly effective. Some people use live minnows, drifting, trolling, or pushing with longer poles in the canals and river system, which can be productive on windy days when the lake is unfishable.

    In terms of lures, for bass, white, junebug, redbud, tilapia, golden shiner, and watermelon/red are good color patterns right now. For crappie, jig body colors like chartreuse, green, white, and orange, along with jig head colors such as black/chartreuse eye, white, orange, and blue, are working well.

    Remember, the lake has a 5-bass limit per angler, with only one of those bass allowed to be over 18 inches in length.

    Given the current conditions, it's a fantastic time to be out on Lake Okeechobee. With the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you're set for a fantastic day on the water. So grab your gear, and let's get fishing. Tight lines, everyone

  • Fishing Report for Lake Okeechobee: Ideal Conditions, Hot Spots, and Lure Recommendations

    Fishing Report for Lake Okeechobee: Ideal Conditions, Hot Spots, and Lure Recommendations
    Feb 14 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers It's your buddy Artificial Lure here, and I'm excited to share the latest fishing report for Lake Okeechobee as of February 14, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the weather. Today is looking pretty good with partly cloudy skies and a high of around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. The winds are light, blowing at about 5 mph, which is perfect for a day out on the water. Sunrise was at 6:53 AM, and sunset will be at 6:14 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to catch some big ones.

    Now, let's dive into the fishing conditions. February is typically a great month for bass and crappie fishing on Lake Okeechobee, and this year is no exception. The recent cold fronts have made the fishing a bit unpredictable, but with the current stable weather, the fish are starting to get active again.

    For bass fishing, live shiners are still one of the top choices, especially when dealing with mixed weather conditions. However, on calmer days like today, you can't go wrong with throwing some lures. Topwater baits, worms, popping frogs, and swim baits/swim jigs are all producing good results. Color patterns that are working well include white, junebug, redbud, tilapia, golden shiner, and watermelon/red. If you're looking to mix it up, spinnerbaits and flipping/pitching techniques are also yielding some nice catches.

    If crappie is what you're after, now is the time to catch them as they are in their spawning season. Jigging on and around the beds in the shallows is highly effective. You can use live minnows or jigs with colors like chartreuse, green, white, and orange. Drifting, trolling, or pushing with longer poles in the canals and river system can be very productive, especially on windy days when the lake is rough.

    As for hot spots, I highly recommend checking out the north end of Lake Okeechobee, particularly around Okeechobee City and the areas near Scott Driver Park on the Kissimmee River. These spots offer excellent access to largemouth bass and black crappie. Another great area is Belle Glade, known as the bay bottom by locals, which is between Grassy Island and Torry Island. This southeast part of the lake is known for its calm waters and is perfect for shoreline fishing.

    Clewiston, on the southwest shore, is also a must-visit. The monkey box area here is notorious for largemouth bass, making it a great spot if you're looking to land a big one.

    In summary, today is shaping up to be a fantastic day for fishing on Lake Okeechobee. With the right lures and bait, and by targeting the right spots, you're bound to have a successful and enjoyable day on the water. So grab your gear, and let's get out there and catch some fish!

    Tight lines, everyone
