I fished with Russ & Nicki Wyckstra and there friend from Stuart today. That is Nicki showing off a 12 inch shell cracker she caught. We caught bass, blue gill, shell cracker and warmouth today, using crickets for bait.

I fished with Benny & Mary Thompson from Ohio today. It was their first trip to Okeechobee and they just had to go bass fishing, I can't blame them. Bass fishing is terrific on the Big "O" right now and will only get better as the fall season starts. We caught over 60 bass today using shiners and artificial baits. Another good day with very nice people.

Labor Day 2010

I fished with Preston McDonald and his friend Pastor Dave today. Preston has fished with us before and is a lot of fun to hang out with. We caught bass on artificial baits and shiners both today. The artificial baits outfished the live bait about two to one. We had a great day together, joking and catching bass.

Today was day 2 with the Bingham family, as you can see the blue gill & shell cracker are all iced down for the trip home. There is going to be a great fish fry at the Bingham home when they return. It was a great two days of catching fish, and fellowship with our new friends

Today we had a 2 boat trip with the Bingham family from Columbia S.C. Bill Sr, Bill Jr, Kenny and their brother in law Thad all made the trip to fish with us. We went Blue Gill fishing and had a great time together. We caught over 150 blue gill between the 2 boats. The guys all love catching & eating pan fish.

I fished with long time client and good friend John Maiuro today. It is always a pleasure to fish with John, he knows fishing and loves to catch bass. We had a great day catching bass on artificial baits and shiners today.
