Tell us how your Kissimmee trip went. I remember that 12lber you got last time.

Andy,

It was a very poor trip. Fished 3 1/2 days and caught 13 LM, 1 Bowfin, 1 Chain Pickrel, and 1 Catfish lol. The biggest LM was MAYBE 3 pounds. The water temp was mid 60's which is very cold for down there. Some locals we know said it was as tough as they had ever seen it, and most of them blanked two of the three days we were there. They had a real bad cold front a week before we got there and the fish and the water just hadn't recovered. We caught fish on a T-rigged Junebug Worm and a flippin jig. Had a couple blow ups on the frog but no hookups. Fished Hathichenha, Kissimmee, Tiger, and Walk-in-water. Kissimmee was where ALL of our fish were caught. I am planning on going back down in Feb/Mar in hopes of redemption. Tough Tough trip to drive 16 hours pulling a boat for 13 fish...

Im sorry to hear that. Reminds me of the two weeks I spent there back in January after you guys left. Kissimme got as cold as 46 degrees for two of the days there. No one believes that when I tell them, but it was a record low week, back when the oranges were freezing. Most of our fish were down i the canal at the dam, 20-30ft deep. Boy did it get good when it warmed up though. Had to leave the next day
