27 OCT 2024 · As of October 27, 2024, Lake Okeechobee is buzzing with activity, making it an exciting time for anglers. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Conditions
The water level at Lake Okeechobee has been hovering around the 15-foot mark, with the level currently at 12.74 and slowly falling, according to Captain Tom Mann's report. The weather is ideal, with mild temperatures and occasional light rain, which has kept the fish active.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 7:33 AM, and sunset is at 6:44 PM, providing ample daylight for both early morning and late afternoon fishing.
### Fish Activity
Fishing has been picking up significantly, with largemouth bass, peacock bass, clown knife fish, and various panfish all biting well. Bass are staging for their winter spawn, concentrating along the outside fringes of inshore spawning grounds, particularly around underwater hydrilla lines, the outermost points of cattails and bulrush, and areas like the mouth of the Kissimmee River and King’s Bar.
### Catches
Yesterday saw a flurry of activity with anglers catching a mix of species. Bass up to 8 pounds were common, with some larger females showing up in the reeds and under mats. Panfish action was also strong, with bream and crappie biting well in moving water areas like John Stretch Park in South Bay and the Rim Canal near the Moore Haven Lock.
### Best Lures and Bait
For bass, effective lures include worms, swim baits, shallow crank baits, top water lures, frogs, and the flipping/pitching technique with jigs. Color patterns such as Junebug, Redbug, White, Okeechobee Craw, Alabama Craw, Tilapia, and black/blue have been successful. For bream, live crickets or worms are recommended, and you might also catch catfish, Mayan cichlids, and Oscars using these baits.
### Hot Spots
Some of the best areas to fish include Buckhead Ridge to Tin House, the North shore area around Dyess Ditch/Harney Pond, areas around Dupree bar, Monkey Box, and parts of Observation Shoal down to the Blue Hole area. The Pelican Bay and Uncle Joe’s area have also produced good numbers of bass.
If you're launching on the West side, stop by Jack’s Big Water Bait & Tackle store for all your tackle needs. With the upcoming busy fishing season and ideal conditions, now is the perfect time to get out on Lake Okeechobee and enjoy some productive fishing.
