Super User Popular Post Dwight Hottle Posted April 1 Super User Popular Post Posted April 1 What do you gift yourself on your birthday? You go fishing is my answer. So I called up my buddy Capt Erik Tilson to go shiner fishing on lake Kissimmee yesterday. We put in at the ramp at Camp Mack my first time staying there. We found a floating island & set up there. The fishing was fast & furious with over 50 fish caught before we ran out of bait. We spent the rest of the day fishing artificials which resulted in only one fish caught on a swim jig. The best two went 7-12 and 9-10. An epic birthday for sure. 30 Quote

Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted April 1 Super User Posted April 1 Happy Birthday brother! Congrats on the incredible day on the water as well. One of these days I'll come down for one of those epic Shiner trips. I hope Florida continues to realize the importance of Bass fishing to the economy and protects places like the SJR and the big O. No telling what Shiner guided fishing brings in annually for the state. 2 Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted April 2 Author Super User Posted April 2 @Swamp Girl We caught all our fish off that island except for the big girl. We heard a splash further away on the other side of the island at a mile marker post with some vegetation around it. So we went over to investigate & the first cast at the edge of the weeds she bit. We both patted each other on the back for pulling up to check it out. We didn’t get any further bites there so we set back up where we were at the island before. My first cast there resulted in the second biggest fish of the day. 3 Quote
