January 2009 Fishing Report
<p>Well, 2009 has quickly arrived and to be honest I am pretty excited about the New Year. On a personal note, I am hoping this is the year my wife and I finally start the family we have been trying for over the last few years. I am also hoping for another healthy year for me and all those effected with cystic fibrosis. I would also like to take the time to wish all my clients, friends, and future clients a Happy New Year.
I have been fishing everyday over the last three weeks thanks to some great unusually warm weather, preparing for trips and tournaments. John’s Lake has been slow for me the last few weeks. The usually morning schooling fish are still productive but once they slow down I have had some difficulty locating fish. I have been waiting for some pre-spawn and spawning spots to turn on. The water temperature on John’s Lake as of last Friday was 63 degrees, still a little too cool for bedding fish to begin.
Lake Toho on the other hand, has been on fire for me. Now, they are spraying hydrilla with helicopters which usually shuts down the bite in certain areas while the hydrilla dies off. Thankfully there areas that I have been fishing have not been sprayed. All my fish are being caught in clear water, using a dark colored worm. Haven’t seen any bedding fish yet but I am seeing the males scouting the shallows.

Bio:
My name is Capt. Kevin Przybyl, I am 26 years old, married and I have been a fishing guide in Central Florida for over a year. I am originally from Buffalo, NY and moved here a short time ago.
Prior to my move to Florida I was a Paramedic for 6 years. During my shifts I would bring my rod and gear to fish anywhere I could. Once I moved to Florida I began fishing professionally as a guide. I have been competing in tournaments since the beginning of 2006 and have had great success. I enjoy sharing all my skills with my guests each and everyday.
