Florida
trophy bass fishing during the month of May yielded plenty of
bass fishing action with good catches of 20 or more bass landed
per each day of fishing. Florida trophy size bass were also taken
that scaled from 6 to 8 1/2 lbs. Wild shiner fishing of course
was the most productive method. s fished under a float along the
weed edges was the best method used.

Brian Ouderkirk (Davenport,
IA - ph: 319-324-2733) and brother Ed (Davenport, IA - ph: 319-323-4939)
caught about 80 bass up to 6
lbs during 5 days (May 10 - 14, 1999) of wild shiner fishing with
Captain Ron. Brian caught two bass that weighed 6 lbs each and
an 11 3/4 lb. mudfish. His brother Ed landed a 5 3/4 lb. bass
and several others in the 4 - 5 lb. range. A pickerel that weighed
at least 4 lbs was also boated by Ed. The best catch of the trip
was a 10 1/2 lb. huge bass that I noticed floating on top of the
water struggling to stay submerged. Upon netting this beauty after
several tries, we discovered that it had a very large fish in
its stomach that caused it to be unable to stay submerged. This
trophy bass as of this time is recovering in one of my shiner
tanks. I have been treating it with antibiotics and will release
it in Okeechobee soon. I fished the Monkey Box and North Shore
areas of Lake Okeechobee. All bass caught were released.
