Another trip to Okeechobee, totally different than last year, lake down almost 4’ and the places I ran over and fished last year, is all dry land now, what bulrush and pads we have marked on electronics, are not accessible by boat, fishing is slow on Okeechobee this year, best day on crappie was 9 fish, no big bass wanted to play, but the smaller
bass bite was fair around the outside of pads and bulrush, but really couldn’t get in it far enough to fish it good, because of the water level, caught the bass on jigs, tried using live shiners in the river, but the little gators liked them, more than the bass, had beautiful weather, fun trip overall, but fishing was tough. Loving retirement more each day...
