Florida bass fishing references
from the State Of Pennsylvania. I have put together a Florida
bass fishing report of trophy bass caught using shiners by Pennsylvania
residents. Their name, address,
home phone number and e-mail address (if they have one) are also included
so as to verify the contents and afford prospective clientele
the opportunity to get first hand information from folks who have
fished with our guide service.

Ron, Thanks
so much for the recent 3 day fishing trip. My son Dave will
never forget it, as will I. The 3-3/4 bass Dave caught has grown
in size and
weight since we got back. If you could send me a copy of the picture,
I would
greatly appreciate it. Please send it to TrackWin1@aol.com. My
computer does
not have Zip files. Give Red a extra honey bun on us. Thanks again

FLORIDA BASS FISHING REPORT:

Florida
wild shiner bass fishing anglers Bob Craley and his 12 year-old
son Lee (York, PA - e-mal: Butch918@aol.com or TeresaC@yorktwn.com)
put up with gale force winds during the first afternoon of their
wild shiner bass fishing trip on October 9, 2001 with Cap'n Ron.
To stay out of the wind we fished the cuts of Harney Pond Canal
where Bob's son Lee caught 2 bass up to 4 1/2 lbs. Bob accidentally
hooked into a manatee that required the line to be cut before
Bob was pulled overboard! The wind clalmed down overnight to allow
us to get out on the lake the next morning October 10, 2001. Bob
and his son Lee caught 7 bass during their morning trip that inclued
a 6 1/4 lb., 5 1/4 lb. and 4 lb'er that were caught by Bob's son.
Two channel catfish were also boated. All fish were released except
the 6 1/4 lb'er which is being mounted. Bass
and catfish were caught in the Harney Pond Canal and North Shore
areas of Lake Okeechobee.

Florida wild shiner trophy
bass fishing anglers Mark Muller and Matt Johnson (Phila., PA

and released 10 bass up to 6 lbs during a half day (May 20, 2001)
of wild shiner bass fishing with Ron's Guide Service. Bass were

Florida wild shiner trophy bass
fishing anglers Don McGowan (Walnut Point, PA - e-mail: dmcgowan@telcordia.com)
and Ed Pollich (Farmingville, NY) caught and released 63 bass that included a 7 1/2 lb. and a 6 lb'er
during 5 days (April 23 - 27, 2001) of wild shiner bass fishing
with Cap'n Ron. Ed caught the 7 1/2 lb. and the 6 lb'er. An unusual
cold front and windy weather for this time of the year slowed
down the fishing action. We boated about 200 fish counting the
bowfin (mudfish) up to 10 lbs, catfish and gar. I fished the Point
Of The Reef out on the lake when the wind was down. Fished the
Harney Pond Canal and Moore Haven Canal areas with good results
when the wind was blowing real hard. Both the 7 1/2 lb. and the
6 lb'er were caught in the Harney Pond Canal. Ed caught the 7
1/2 lb'er on a worm (Red Shar Green Glitter) which he was casting
while we were wild shiner fishing. Seems best fishing is still
in the Harney Pond Canal area of Lake Okeechobee.

Hey Captain Ron,
Thanks for signing my guestbook.
Since my mounted fish (guided by you) hangs right above my computer,
I am constantly reminded of the great time my brother and I had
fishing with you............ Got a teenie, tiny favor to ask<*){{{><
could you email my brother and give him a clue where the bass
are lately??? He's got a tourney there this weekend and asked
me to ask you for a little info, he'd sure appreciate it.......
his email address is Howjacalit@aol.com

Subject: Re: Where the fish are.....
Thanks for
the info Ron. I'm coming down on the 2nd to pre-fish 2 days for
my tourney on the 4th. The last time you gave me info this past
spring it helped a lot. I had 3 previous Red Man tourneys on the
lake this year and that north shore area was where about 80% of
the boats fished. I was told that area has been holding fish all
year since the winter high water. Hopefully my sluggo technique
will also do well like it did last year at this time when my brother
and I were fishing with you. I'll let you know how I do and also
what the others were doing so it might help you out with your
guide service.
Thanks again,
Dirk Oswald

Ron Relosky (Pittsburgh, PA
- e-mail: Ronre@aol.com) and Willy Sans (West Palm Beach, FL)
caught 23
bass up to 4 1/2 lbs. during
1 day (Sept. 21, 1998) of wild shiner fishing with Ron’s
Guide Service. Fish were taken on the North Shore in the open
pockets scattered throughout the open water weed beds. All fish
were released.
Frank Zdziarski (Shickshinny, PA -
ph: 717-864-2403), Frank Oley Sr. and son Frank Jr. (Plains, PA
- e-mail: FRANK1961@aol.com) caught 63 bass
which included a 5 1/2,
6 and 7 1/2 lb'er. using shiners during the 3 days (May 5
- 7, 1998) they fished on Lake Okeechobee with Captain Ron. Frank
Sr. landed the 5 1/2 and 6 lb'er. Frank Zdziarski landed
the 7 1/2 lb'er. Frank Jr. "did a lot of missing".
All the bass were released except the 7 1/2 lb'er which is
being mounted.
7 1/4 lb. Lake
Okeechobee trophy bass.
Guided a husband and wife team
Quincy & Carolyn Wang (Erie, PA - e-mail: QC9295@aol.com and
e-mail: QCWang@pol.net) to 18
bass up to 7 1/4 lbs. Carolyn
of course hooked and landed the 7 1/4 lb'er. All bass were caught
off of the point of the reef along the pepper grass beds. Wild
shiners were used to catch the fish. All fish were released except
the 7 1/4 trophy that Quincy is having mounted.
Steve Wible (Mc Connellsbg., PA - e-mail: bestbid@epix.net) and
Travis Buterbaugh (Norristown, PA) caught 97 bass
up to 3 lbs. during 1 day of fishing (June 13, 1998) with Captain
Ron. They fished with wild shiners for a few hours during each
4 hour session of fishing. Wild shiner fishing however only produced
3 bass while topwater fishing produced 94 bass! We fished to dark
trying to hit the 100 fish mark. Although we didn't hit the 100
fish mark we had a great time trying. The floating Rapala any
color (size #11) caught 94 of the 97 bass landed. It seems a slow
retrieve with short erratic twitches seemed to draw the best strikes.
You will get at least 2 to 3 shots at hooking them if you don't
pull the plug away from them when they blast it. Best hours for
topwater action was from 6:30 - 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 - 8:30 p.m.
All the bass which were released were caught in the Monkey Box
area of Lake Okeechobee.
Dennis and Mike Reilley (Chadds Ford, PA - 610-388-1193) caught
22
bass up to 5 lbs. using
shiners during a day and the half of fishing with Captain Ron.
