Nice Fish! Ive yet to try that lake, but may be heading up there in the next week or 2 to give it a shot.

the weekend before last I went out and seen a few bedding bass, but a lot of empty beds. figured out to burn and jerk flukes which a hardly use lately worked great.

That sucks!I was just up there for the gatornationals and was goin to bring a pole for Saturday after qualifying. Guess Im glad I didn't! Seems like there is some nice water up there too.

yea just about every body of water you find will have some in it. I try to avoid "new" looking places with hardly any grass or cover. Usually there are fish in them, and you may get 50 of them but theyre all typically small still. I don't really go up to Boynton myself because Im already surrounded by canals or go to bigger water, but I know there are plenty of places around there.

how ya been?!

The GF and I went out today for the first time in a while. Went through a canal in boca since the time change messed up a farther trip planned and it wasn't very productive, so we went to our local margate canal system where it was a slow bite till I figured out to BBUUUUURRRRRNNNN. Fast!!! esp the flukes. ripping and jerking we were getting em one after another. Seen a few bedding bass still to and got to ****** a small male off one. nothing big but we got a lot in the 2-3lbs range.

Loxahatchee, lake ida, osborne, c canals.there are hundreds of little canals and lakes to get a 15' tin into to list. They light enough to move without a ramp, and with 4x4 if available you should be able to yank that thing in and out of about anything lol

Cant decide between holiday or okeechobee tomorrow.

Nice! I wish I could do that with my family. No electronics, shower, and ac and they think theyre in hell lol

I go out alone quite a bit. I have phone service most of the glades and a gps on the boat. Apart from having some general knowledge of the area, common sense is all you need to know what to do/bring. Its actually hard to find a spot out there where someone isnt around or near by when on a boat. Everytime i TRY to find a place nobody is around, there they are, fishing in it lol.

Zoom are one of my favorite plastics all around. Strike king stick worms work ok, but I noticed they last longer than most others.

Thats a good group of guys. I was going to join them, but they use a system where non boaters are drawn to the boat they will use for the weekend and have their own competition. So you get a different guy every time. Didnt mind that, but my gf wants to do it with me, which gets to my jack lol.... Anyone know the club that does their meeting at dania bass pro. I cant remember the name to look at the site.

When I get the winch installed on my jeep I might head down there. I'm always a catch and release unless I'm in saltwater. I'll PM ya if I can get down there.

hah that's awesome.I live about hour and a half maybe 2 hours away depending on traffic. Up in North margate.

I've always wondered about that canal. I used to race there all the time and want to come back but it's so far from my house just to fish and not know. Now I might try it, thanks. Plus there are some good trails to 4 wheel across the street I've wanted to explore as well.

What part of the glades you guys hitting? I might be solo tomorrow am as long as I'm even allowed to go. Seen a sweet patch off the alley on the way back from the west coast this weekend I was thinking about prodding.

its ok, imma cull it this weekend anyways

Of course! No I have an 18' nitro as well lol. fish....

he said it was easier to slow down for gators in the water at 35 than 50.

out on one of the levvees he was up there shooting lazer. I seen the sign after I came back in and looked for it, but never noticed it before that.

Thats a problem down here too. Alot of the smaller lakes and canals get robbed by these guys. The area where I used to go 4 wheeling in bonita springs these mexicans would go out there in clusters and net up hundreds of fish and throw the ones they didnt want on the banks to die instead of back in the water. There have been a few times ive been able to get cops out, but they just make them leave like from a lake out back of brus room over here just a few weeks ago they were doing the same thing in a lake you could nearly fish out with the gear they were using.

Went out to lox this morning for a little bit. Got a bunch of fish but only one good fish worthy of a picture.maybe a 5lber. Oh and I caught a speeding ticket. I never knew there was a sign posted there for 35mph lol. He got me doin 51 in a 35. Alot of people for ticket fish this morning.

yea it wasnt a complete loss. We got something.didnt get to toss anything off 27. Just kept getting rain and were always to retarded to get ponchos to leave in the boat. I got a spawner in lox a few days prior wayyyyy out between levee 7 and lox north ramp. We need to get a gathering of us out there soon.

oh yea... we did. We even went blazing out of the trails where there were no trails into grass and pad fields lol. Your right though. Just didnt know the area, was late, weather sucked, and I was pissy... just a bunch of negatives that dont make good fishing. Next time.
