This is a quick video of Bass Fishing in Florida. Tom Martin was on the boat with me for the day for some bass fishing action on Lake Jackson which is part of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes and is located just south of Saint Cloud Florida. This body of water is in the Three Lakes Wildlife Management Area and has probably some of the best bass fishing action going on right now in Central Florida.
We had mixed the day up some using live wild shiners as well as some artificial lures to catch our bass for the day. The live wild shiners were doing great as they boated over 20 bass for us in under six hours of bass fishing.
Artificial lures we were using were wacky rigged senko type baits, zoom brush hogs and spinner baits. Main areas of focus for us was Kissimmee Grass and areas with a mix of Lily pads and hydrilla. These are areas that seem to always produce bass for us out here, and with this body of water being strictly catch and release with largemouth bass the fishing is always great out here.
For the most part, the bass out here will run in the two to five pound range and are very good fighters. Not the typical bass, which while fighting will go for that heart stopping jump, these bass tend to go deep, or as deep as possible in four foot of water and pull a lot of drag. Good numbers and good size make for a complete bass fishing day out here, and yes, there are the fair share of trophy bass out here as well, ranging from 7 to ten pounds. Lake Jackson is definitely a must try lake here in Florida, its just an often overlooked body of water.
The past two weeks has seen some very good bass fishing in Florida, especially on the Kissimmee Chain of lakes to include Lake Jackson.
Kissimmee Chain of Lakes bass fishing has been doing very good for us. We have been focusing on mainly Lake Jackson as it has been producing not only some great numbers of bass, but some good size as well. We did a quick scouting trip out here to check out a few other spots. These spots in the past have produced some great trophy bass for us and have typically reloaded after a few months.
Bass Fishing in Florida is still a hook setting bonanza. Sid returned once again for some great bass fishing action out on Lake Jackson here in Central Florida. We started the day out hitting the ramp very early so we were on our first spot just before 7am. Cooler temperatures than the day before and a fog that did not let go of us until just after 10am, looked like it was going to be a tougher day than we had been used to.
Folks, we have been having a blast with bass fishing. Waters are cooling down and the bass have been biting. Exciting part is they have been hammering our soft plastics and lipless crankbaits. Today the wind was up some, which spooked off our top water action, or did it? No sir, we worked senko type baits across the top of lily pads and had more than our share of bass explode on our baits.
