Group Trip Bass Fishing Out Of Clewiston
This is Capt Mark Shepard with your Lake Okeechobee fishing report.
Well, folks just got off the water, doing a 2-boat trip with my partner, Mark Rose, and fishing with four people known as the Snowden party from Ohio. They’ve been with us before, but this morning the winds were blowing 40 miles an hour, gusts up to 40. It was steady at over 30 miles per hour for the first 2 hours.
I didn’t know if we were going to be able to catch any fish. I had a few places in the swamp to hide so we went back in there in a safe place, and hunkered down and tried to stay out the wind best as possible and we burned them up, we went through our bait. We had a lot of fish, some really, really good ones. Even sometimes when Mother Nature throws down on you, you can still have a blessed day. The coming day is going to be super cold; we’ll see what happens then. Big shout out to Capt Mark Rose, he did a great job, and we all had a lot of fun, and two of those folks got their personal best, so that’s what makes for a great day.
Captain Mark Shepherd, all the best
