If you ever find yourself down in Kissimmee, Florida, and got yourself a hankerin’ for some good ol’ fishin’, you best listen up! Now, I ain’t no professional, but I been fishin’ ’round these parts long enough to know a thing or two. So, let me tell ya ’bout what’s been bitin’ at Lake Kissimmee lately.
First off, let me just say, the fishin’ here has been mighty fine these days! I hear from the folks down by the lake that they been catchin’ all sorts of fish, from them big ol’ bass to the little crappies and even some good-sized catfish. If you’re lookin’ to reel in somethin’ tasty, now’s the time to head out!
Now, I reckon you’re wonderin’, what’s been bitin’ the best? Well, I’ve been hearin’ a lot of talk ’bout them largemouth bass. Folks been usin’ Carolina rigs, tossin’ out them 8-12 foot crankbaits, and they been pullin’ in some real beauties. I’m talkin’ fish that weigh between 3.5 to almost 8 pounds! Can you believe that? Some days, it’s like the fish are practically jumpin’ right onto the boat.
If you’re thinkin’ about where to go fishin’, well, let me give ya some tips on that too. The south shore of Brahma Island seems to be a real hotspot for them bass. Then there’s the area around 7-Palms in North Cove where the vegetation’s just right for catchin’ all sorts of fish. If you don’t mind a little bit of a trek, head over to Philadelphia Point or Lemon Point, or even try around the mouth of Tiger Cove. You never know what you might catch in them parts!
Aside from bass, there’s a whole mess of other fish in that lake. Crappie’s been bitin’ real good too, so if you like them small fish for fryin’, this lake got ya covered. And don’t forget about the catfish! I hear they’ve been mighty active, and there’s always a chance you might catch a big ol’ one that’ll put up a good fight. Oh, and I wouldn’t leave out the bluegills, carp, walleye, and perch. They been bitin’ just fine, too, especially if you’re fishin’ in the right spots.
If you’re wonderin’ when the best time to go fishin’ is, well, it seems like the early mornin’ and late afternoon are your best bets. Them fish, they like to come out when the sun ain’t too high up in the sky, so if you’re up at the crack of dawn or fishin’ just before the sun sets, you might have better luck. I always say, the early bird catches the fish, and there’s some truth to that, I tell ya!
And, I heard tell there’s an app you can use now to help you find the best fishin’ spots around Lake Kissimmee. They got this thing called BiteTime™ that’ll help you figure out the best hours to fish, and if you’re like me, that can save ya a whole lotta guessin’. All you gotta do is download it and start checkin’ out the spots. It’s a real handy tool for any fisherman or fisherwoman worth their salt!
Now, I know what you’re thinkin’ – “What about the size of the lake?” Well, Lake Kissimmee’s a big ol’ body of water. It’s got plenty of room for fishin’, and it’s deep enough in some spots to keep things interestin’. You ain’t gotta worry ‘bout not findin’ a place to cast your line, that’s for sure.
In conclusion, if you’re headed to Lake Kissimmee and you’re lookin’ for some good fishin’, now’s the time. With a whole mess of fish biting, from bass to crappie to catfish, you won’t be disappointed. Just make sure you got your gear ready, pick the right spot, and head out early or late to make the most of your day. The fish are waitin’, and they ain’t gonna catch themselves!
