LAKE OKEECHOBEE FISHING REPORT
AUGUST 1998

cartoon
Okeechobee bass fishing during this month of the year is usually very good. The very hot weather of days in the high 90's however has slowed down the fishing. Our morning sessions of fishing have been really very good due to the cooling of the lake water overnight. Our afternoon showers which have finally arrived are a big help to turning on the fish during our evening session of fishing. Small schooling bass are everywhere on the lake. Am experiencing a lot of action from them playfully blasting our shiners out of the water. Limits of bluegills are being caught by local fishermen daily.

FLORIDA BASS FISHING REPORT: AUGUST 15 & 16, 1998

Hank & Joann Stasiewicz (Wellington, FL - e-mail: hsjs2349@msn.com) caught 7 bass up to 4 lbs. using shiners during 2 half days (Aug. 15 & 16, 1998) of fishing on Lake Okeechobee with Captain Ron. All the bass which were released were caught in the Monkey Box area of Okeechobee. This couple who hardly missed any fish hits experienced poor fishing due to a week of hot sunny days that produce high water temperatures in the 90's. Florida bass which are at their peak when the water is in the 80's however turn off when the water temperature is in the 90's.


FLORIDA BASS FISHING REPORT: AUGUST 8 & 9, 1998

Tracy Teaff (Arlinton, TX - e-mail: TTeaff@aol.com) caught 16 bass up to 4 1/2 lbs. using shiners during 2 half days (Aug. 8 & 9, 1998) of fishing on Lake Okeechobee with Captain Ron. All the bass which were released were caught in the Monkey Box area of Okeechobee. The fish during the first session of fishing put a show on for us buy playfully blasting the wild shiners out of the water. These tactics which are a sight to see have a way of keeping you on your toes. During the second session of fishing the bass were more aggressive without the topwater action that is delightful to watch. Tracy who I must say is an exceptional good lady bass fishing angler and a Arlinton Texas school counselor wanted me to say hello to all of her school students in this report. Well here's a big "HELLO" from a very special counselor who's thinking of all her students even during her vacation.
