  • Résumé

  • As of November 21, 2024, Lake Okeechobee is offering some exciting fishing opportunities. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    First, let's talk about the conditions. The lake level is currently at 12.74 and has been falling, but according to recent reports, the water level is still rising in some areas[2][5]. The weather is mild, with temperatures in the mid-70s to low 80s, making it ideal for fishing.

    Sunrise today is at around 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 5:20 PM. These times are perfect for catching the early and late bites when fish are most active.

    Fish activity has been robust, especially for bass. The bass bite has been on fire, with many anglers reporting multiple catches throughout the day. Areas such as the Shoal, North shore, Dyess Ditch, and Tin House have been particularly active for bass[1][2].

    For crappie, the bite is still a bit iffy due to warm water temperatures, but this is expected to improve in about three weeks as the water cools down. For now, slow trolling or minimal wind drift in deeper water, targeting ledges and drop-offs, is the best approach. Use rods like the BnM Capps and Coleman 10ft trolling rod, and lures such as Road Runners in Chartreuse/Black, White, or Electric Chicken colors[1].

    Other fish like bluegill and smaller bass are also being caught while trolling for crappie, making it a fun experience for families.

    For bass, the best lures currently include popping frogs, swim baits/swim jigs, flipping/pitching worms, rattle traps, and top water lures worked slowly around cover like reeds, cattails, and bulrushes[1][2].

    Hot spots to try include the areas around Uncle Joe’s, Blue Hole, and Turners Cove on the south end, and Monkey box/Dupree bar, Dyess Ditch/point of Horse, and areas around Indian Prairie and Tin House on the north end[1].

    Additionally, the mouth of the Kissimmee River, King’s Bar, Fisheating Bay off the Harney Pond Canal, and the hayfields of the Bay Bottom area have been producing good results for both bass and panfish[2].

    Remember to use boater courtesy and respect other anglers on the water. With the right gear and knowledge of these hot spots, you should have a productive and enjoyable day fishing on Lake Okeechobee.
