Lake O Big Mouth (no not my MIL)
Posted: Apr 6th, '14, 05:36
Been a few years since I visited Lake O due to the powers that be screwing up the lake levels and killing off the fishing for a few years. Went out last Saturday overcast low ceiling, drizzle, windy.
Was throwing shiners@7am. First hour dead. Second hour moved and found some kind of hole and it was on.
Boated 8 18" or better using lite tackle, lost a few at the boat but the action was awesome chasing the shiners up to the surface and knocking them around before taking them.
Action on plastic was not as good as the wind picked up but boated one and had a few hits.
Weather was turning worse so we headed in. Very nice guide out of Roland Martins fish camp in Clewiston. Young guy who fishes out of Pittsburgh in the summer, Lake O in the winter with a year old decked out Ranger and Chevy 2500HD truck.
