LooksLikeSinbad Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I will be taking a family vacation in Ft. Lauderdale Feb. 13 - 20th. I am planning to sneak off for a day on Okeechobee. If any of you have a boat and room for a partner I would love to fish with you one day - I'll bring lunch, pitch in for gas, etc. If anyone doesn't have a boat, but knows the area and would like to split a boat rental that would work too. PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooked Solid Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 The Big O is crazy Low water levels right now.Without good knowledege of the lake running a rental might be a tough deal.You'd be limited to the rim canal which may not be a bad thing. I'd research other options,They will probably be in full blown spawn or just post on the stick marsh with this cold snap.Not much of a difference in travel either.

Braided Line Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Can`t help you on Okeechobee or the Stick Marsh. Have fished The Big "O" many a time and the Stick Marsh a few times. Great places! Have you thought about getting a guide? Beats staying at the hotel or where ever. Just a thought. If you ever make it to Orlando to visit "Mickey" send me a PM. Always nice to take an out-of-stater fishing. Besides it saves a whole lot on gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
