Lake Okeechobee Bass Fishing in the Summer!

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

  The summer is here and the weather is warm, but the fish are smart, they’re starting to school on bait-fish. Fishing has been fun, just look at the pictures, big smiles & nice largemouth okeechobee bass. 

The early morning  is when the honor roll bass attend class, the fishing has been easy with lite tackle and mostly in the open water which makes for some great fishing. I sure had a lot of fun with everybody over the last few weeks here, so here are the some recent pictures of us on Lake Okeechobee fishing this month. Every day brings a new fishing adventure, with the movement of bait and wind it makes for a new exciting and different day everyday on the Big” O”.

Summer time fishing can be very exciting with a lot of different types of fishing to enjoy for the expert angler and novice alike.

I hope to see ya soon,

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….

FWC covers ‘Wounded Warriors,’ hook, line and sinker

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

News Release

Coleen Curran (SMI Cold Therapy), 704-900-7275

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has teamed up with the “Wounded Warrior Project” to recognize the service of our nation’s injured war veterans. The FWC presented war veterans with five-year fishing-license bonus packages containing items donated by the freshwater fishing industry.

The FWC’s Division of Freshwater Fisheries Management presented the promotional package of tackle samples, fishing publications and discount coupons to each of the Wounded Warrior Project veterans as part of its current promotion of 5-year freshwater fishing licenses. For information on that, visit MyFWC.com/License.

The Wounded Warrior Project is taking U.S. war veterans on fishing excursions on Lake Okeechobee. A pair of Iraqi war veterans went fishing June 7 and 8, guided by a professional bass angler, and caught more than 60 bass. During a two-day excursion last month, another pair of Iraqi war veterans caught approximately 50 bass.  Two more fishing trips are planned for August and October.

The trip was sponsored by SMI Cold Therapy of Butler, Pa., a manufacturer of cold-therapy products and services for post-operative patient care in hospitals and surgery centers, and byBassOnline.com, Florida’s largest freshwater guide service and outfitter for bass fishing on Florida lakes, canals and rivers.

Lake Okeechobee & Florida Everglades with BASSonline Team!

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

Good morning Lori,

I have attached a couple of pics to go with the testimonial below.

For Spring Break 2010 my husband and I took our son and one of his friends to Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades to fish.

This was our first guided fishing trip and the BASSonline staff made our three day experience unforgettable.  Lake Okeechobee is a beautiful lake and the fishing is awesome!  Capt. Mark Shepard is great and he taught us a lot. He really knows his stuff and worked hard to put us on our largest fish to date!

We will definitely be back.

Many Thanks!
The Noffsinger’s

Lake Okeechobee World Famous Bass Fishing Lake!

Lake Okeechobee Fishing this week has been super with big numbers of bass, each day with a lot of big fish mixed in our daily catches. The fishing condition’s have been pretty good, weather more stable and the water is warming. With the full moon this week, the spawn is getting stronger and stronger.

It hasn’t happen in years, but the fishing opportunity’s have been really good with artificial lures. We have been doing a lot of site fishing for big bass, a lot of swim baits and all kinds of plastics. This fishing is pretty easy, great for all types of anglers.

I would like to say thanks to every body I fished with this week,  it was great to be part of your adventures.

Till next time tight lines and good fishing….
