Lake Wissota Wisconsin

Big SandLake

Ice fishing baby!!!! Thats right we got out and did some ice fishing. White Ash Lake is where we went and folks this is definitely something you have to do. Its not as bad as some may think and its a blast reeling in fish with a little 19 inch rod and watching your catch come up thru an 8inch hole in the lake. Pictured here is Dustin, good friend of mine with a nice Northern caught on a tip up using a shiner.

Sorry this is coming so late, things have been very busy around here. Pretty much all of our trips have been done on Lake Toho and the bass have been playing very nicely for us. With most of the people opting for using live wild shiners, and a great choice of bait to use at this time of year I might add, they have been catching some good numbers of bass as well as some great size too.

With calmer days we have been working the wild shiners under a float, sometimes anchored in areas where we know we have a good concentration of bass marked already, if the bass have scattered on us we will slow troll the live bait to get back on them again. When the wind is up some we will work our baits freelined and this is an amazing way to catch some great bass as you can see from the pictures here.

Trips using artificial baits have been doing good as well. We have been throwing a lot of the Bass Assassin baits, mainly the Die Dapper and the TapOut and they have been catching some quality bass. Main focus has been in and around areas with good concentration of Kissimmee grass hitting the nooks and holes. One big key is to get a read on the wind patterns for previous days, if there has been a consistent direction in the wind, that will play a big key for locating bass quicker for you.

Till the next report, keep those lines tight and BASS ON!!!!!

Bass fishing on Lake Toho has been doing ok for us. Tiege and Tony came out for some action and the bass were around, but it was tough to get a good bite going. The guys did ok but it was not what I am used to out here. Very hot with water temps in the upper to low 90’s made these bass a little stand offish.

Day two we headed to Lake Jackson for eight hours of bass fishing, and I told the guys I fully expect a 30 bass day out here. The guys had a blast as they just kept hauling bass after bass over the side of the boat, needless to say they safely boated their 30 bass easily before 10am and burned thru 5 dozen shiners with no problem. Once the live bait was gone we continued on with flukes and senkos to catch a few more scattered bass here and there.

The guys loved it out here and definitely had a great time not only catching some serious numbers of bass, but some nice quality bass as well.

Lake Toho Bass Fishing

Lake Toho has been fishing pretty good for us. All artificial fishing trips out here for us as of late and the bass have been playing good for us. Bass we have been targeting have been hanging around scattered grass and hydrilla mostly on the northern end of the lake. Flukes and senko type baits have been great baits to use, as well as spinner baits and early morning the top water plugs have also been very good for us. We have been getting some limited action on swim baits




Lake Jackson Bass Fishing

 We have been doing pretty good out on Lake Jackson. Wild shiners have been catching a lot of bass out here and some good sized bass as well. Steve came out with us today for a couple hours of some of Florida’s best bass fishing and did it all with artificial lures. Numbers were down some but believe me the smiles Steve had when he caught his new personal best just over six pounds on a senko type bait made for a great day. This toad did a lot of jumping and put on a great show for Steve today. Early morning bite remains the best action as things will slow down some close to high noon. This does not mean fishing is off, just means we slow down the presentation and target certain areas a little harder to keep catching the bass!

Thank you

Central Florida Bass Fishing

What can I say, the months of March and April have seen some very good bass fishing. We have been hitting several different bodies of water. East Lake Toho had been doing good for us for a good stretch and then the action started to slow down a bit too much for my liking. Spinner baits, flukes and stick baits had been the hot ticket baits out here until things slowed down.

We made the move to Starke Lake in the small town of Ocoee where there was some good action, this place can definitely be a good numbers lake for bass fishing, and if you’re looking to take a break for lunch, the Ocoee Café has some great food, just a matter of minutes from the lake.

Lake Jackson has still been fishing great. Live wild shiners have been producing not only some good number but some darn good sized bass as well. Just ask Vonda Ward, as her and husband Mike came down for some great bass fishing action on Lake Jackson. Vonda had informed me that she had never caught a largemouth bass before, plenty of catfish and such, but never a bass. I told her not to worry she WILL catch some bass, and folks she was on fire! Her first bass of the day, took a little long than expected, maybe 30 minutes but she handled this big gal like a true pro! Gave her one heck of a fight, and in the end she was holding this 7 pound largemouth bass for some pictures and some great memories for sure.

Mike did a great job working the artificial lures himself, catch a scattering of bass around the lake using spinner baits and senko type baits, let me tell you, hats off to the folks at Pure Fishing, for which I am now a team member of, these new Veritas rods we are using have been absolutely awesome, a much lighter rod and tons of hook setting power.
