Spring Harbor Pond

I’ve fished a lot growing up, and I can tell you for a fact, the Spring Harbor Apartments’ pond is the most consistent place I have ever been to. With the right tackle and the right presentation, I have successfully been able to pull out at least one 3lb fish every time I have been [...]

Size Exemption Permit

I’ve recently returned from a windy day of tournament fishing on Lake Okeechobee. Unfortunately a member of our club submitted incorrect dates on the required Lake Okeechobee size exemption permit. This permit allows tournament anglers to keep 12″ bass for weigh ins. Standard length requirement for Largemouth bass on Lake Okeechobee is 18″.  Needless to [...]

Pre Fishing

Four days of rain, two additional days of 60 degree temperatures, and where did all the bass go? Well if I had a boat I could tell you. But here at the pond, they just moved one canal south. I got to the Spring Harbour pond around 9:30am this morning and I didn’t get a [...]

Largemouth Bass

  I have always been amazed at how wide a Largemouth Bass’s mouth could actually open if it sees a satisfying meal. I found this bass laying on the shore of the pond…I think she bit off more than she could chew. That’s too bad…she was a nice sized fish close to 4lbs.

Windy Conditions

It was super windy today; good thing I just watched a Bill Dance Episode on how to fish in the wind! I’ve heard contradicting opinions on how to fish in the wind, so I guess I can only tell you what has actually worked for me. First, you can pretty much rule out top-water baits [...]

Wacky Rig Improvised

Shout out to the AT&T guy, in the parking lot, that asked me if I catch anything in here! Yes sir I do. The wacky rig strikes again! I am telling you right now, the Jackall Flick Shake is on FIRE in Florida! For those of you that don’t know, the Flick Shake setup is [...]

Jackall Flick Shake

This 3.5lb bass was caught on a Junebug colored Jackall Flick Shake, with a 1/8oz jig head with a single wire brush guard. This was my first experience using the Flick Shake and I absolutely loved it. I caught 6 smaller fish in a matter of 30 minutes, and then this chunk. The Flick Shake [...]

Carolina Rig

I went to the Spring Harbor Pond a little earlier today, approximately 1:30pm. It was extremely windy and a slight cold front had made its way to South Florida. I knew these conditions were not necessarily ideal, but fish still need to eat! I fished for about 45 mins with an orange lipless Redeye Shad [...]

Lake Okeechobee

Today was kind of a slow day fishing at Lake Okeechobee. My buddy John and I went to the western grass flats, little did we know, there were a ton of other boats with the same idea. It made it very difficult to get on a good area, but we did manage find some fish. [...]
