The Bass Fishing is starting to heat up as the post spawn is in full affect and the big'uns are wanting to eat. They are spread out though some are shallow and other are out deep following the bait fish. Look for schools of bait in 8-12ft over submerged grass.

Now in the 3rd week of February water temps are above normal and temperatures are 10° above normal. It's been so warm that fish are confused and have been hard to find. Red fishing has been the most consistent but has taken a lot to find these bruisers speckled trout should be all over the back Waters but with temperatures so warm they are constantly moving and making it tough to locate them lots of moving. We've had some Spanish mackerel and Pompano show up which has helped with catching fish but things should get better towards March just through...
