Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 7, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 7, 2011 Got a couple of other PM's tonight. Seems like most people want to head out on Friday. April 15th, hope you have your taxes done. I know I'm ready to go vent my frustration for the IRS on a few fish. Lox Road ramp work for everybody? I'm going to make the assumption that everybody wants to get out at first light to avoid some of the heat in the afternoon.

piscicidal Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Eric, something came up. I can go Wednesday but Thursday / Friday are out for me. Have a surgery on Thursday. I dont want to upset the whole plan, but if Wednesday works for everybody then I can make it. Quote

sunkboat on big o Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 I've never been to lox. what are the directions to ramp, coming from plantation Quote
GLADES Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 It is located north of Parkland, 7 miles west of 441/SR7 at the west end of the Hillsboro canal and Lox Rd. Quote

Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 8, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 8, 2011 Looks like the guys over at JD's Custom baits will be pouring some stuff to hand out to everybody Friday morning as well.

Super User South FLA Posted April 8, 2011 Super User Posted April 8, 2011 I'll be there, headed to Lake Okeechobee this Saturday or Sunday. Dale if you are in shoot me a P.M. Mike, hope all is fine with you and your family. Quote
Shane Procell Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Dan from JD's Custom Baits sent me a picture of a 30" bass caught today at Lox on one of his baits. Estimated at 10#'s. Quote
evrgladesbasser Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Wish I could join you guys but I'm leaving town next Friday. Make sure to post some pics and good luck Quote
Fishing Cowgirl Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 You guy's have fun! I'm headed to Lake O tomorrow to wear out the 11 year old on schoolies (So he has fun on something besides video games), then see if I can upgrade my personal best for something I can post on the "State vs State" thread. I've caught bass, had fun with dinks, but would love to catch a biggun. We'll be up at the north end in a Red Stratos. Then we'll catch some panfish for a fish fry, with sweetcorn bread,cheese grits, and turnip greens. Quote

bocabasser Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 i just got a couple of bags of those frogs at the 4th round qualifier of the kotg series. never tried them, but after those pics, i will certainly be giving them a go. Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 8, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 8, 2011 They're not bad, Bruce. They've got no salt in them so they're very durable. They don't really sink much. Once it hits the water and you start cranking, it's up on top kicking. It's also a little bigger than the normal frog like a horny toad or a cane toad. Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted April 8, 2011 Author Super User Posted April 8, 2011 I got a text a little while ago from Dan from JD's baits who brought up an interesting point. Lox could well be closed next week with some of the government shutdowns. They're closing national parks and whatnot. If that is true and does happen, anybody have an alternative place? Holiday Park, Ida, Osborne, etc etc? I'll do a search to see if I can find a phone number of who to call to get some information. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted April 8, 2011 Super User Posted April 8, 2011 Osborne is best in the evening, I don't know but it just is. Lake Clarke is good whenever. I don't fish Ida enough to know. Quote

Super User South FLA Posted April 8, 2011 Super User Posted April 8, 2011 If we can't fish Lox, than I am most likely out. Quote
Shane Procell Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 I'am 20 miles deep in the Big Cypress national Park untill monday morning. I hope they don't lock me in. Quote
