FLORIDA BASS FISHING BRAG'N BOARD: JANUARY 1999

Our Florida bass fishing during the month of January got off to a good start. Big Florida trophy size bass were moving into the spawning areas all around the lake. Good catches were made using lively wild shiners fished under a float or free lined either by drifting or anchoring down along a weed line. Okeechobee's North Shore, Moonshine Bay and the Monkey Box areas seem to be the hot spots to fish.
