Okeechobee Pennysaver • October 23, 2013 - October 29, 2013
Bass fishing remains consistently good around Lake Okeechobee, number of bass and big bass are being caught daily. With the warm weather of the last week the water has warmed back up to near 80 so the bite isn’t lasting all day. Tin House Cove and the area in front of the pier are yielding good catches of fish. Early morning top water action is still good for anglers using a prop bait over and around the hydrilla or against the thick cover edges. Speck anglers are making a showing but as far as great catches I am not hearing much about it. The Kissimmee River will be the first place they start biting when the water cools. The area up the river around the wier where the water is flowing is yielding fish periodically. Anglers trolling deep are finding scattered schools of smaller sized specks with larger one mixed in.
