Okeechobee, Florida - Freshwater Fishing Report
Lake Okeechobee
We had our first cold front of the year this weekend with nightime temps down in the high 40's. Prior to the cold fron the bass were chewing with catches of 30 to 50 bass coming on shiners and artificials. I fished with Brian & Christi Delahunt from Buffalo NY Saturday and Sunday. Saturday we caught over 30 Bass with a big Bass of 8 pounds, it was Brians biggest Bass, he was pumped, and som was I. Sunday we awoke to 49 degress temps and expected that the fish may nbot bite, we were wrong after a slow start the fish bit very well, we ended the day catching 17 Bass before 10:30 AM.
