Florida Everglades Bass Fishing


It's still good in the Florida Everglades despite poor oxygen levels and rain fall. We've had three trips this week and boated over 200 largemouth mostly on the smaller side. If the rain would push some fresh water in the system the bigger bass will eat better. South Florida Everglades bass fishing and Lake Okeechobee produce some of the best bass fishing in America so come join us for a guided bass or peacock bass trip to Ft. Lauderdale or Miami areas of South Florida.

Florida Peacock Bass


This week we've had two peacock bass trips and they were a little slow because of low water quality and oxygen levels. We've had little rain until this week which should improve the water flow and fishing. Our trips still managed about 10 to 15 peacock bass per half-day trip which isn't bad considering the water. Here is Bob Hager's nice 5 lb. Peacock Bass from a Miami canal.

Lake Okeechobee Bass Fishing


It's been a great week of bass fishing on Lake Okeechobee and the Florida Everglades for largemouth bass. We were out 4 times this week and caught in the neighborhood of 300 largemouth bass up to 6 lbs! Lake Okeechobee was absolutely incredible with about 100 bass all on artificial from the south side of the lake. I haven't fished the lake much this year because the Florida Everglades fishery has been red hot and produced about 200 bass in three trips this week. Most of these fish were on the small side though. South Florida bass fishing is fantastic this year and should last another 2 to 3 months before the heavy rains will shut down the fishing.
