Orlando - Freshwater Fishing Report
Lake Toho
Today we did a little scouting around out on Lake Toho.
Day started out with a very light breeze and ended very calm.
We started out the day working grass beds with Gitem K.O’s and Toads, managing to pick up 2 slot sized bass on the K.O in Red Bass color. From there we made the move to the grass and reeds just past Makinson Island, this was a move that would pay off in a big way.
We started out flipping Gitem Bugs with one good thump and a drop and watched as reeds were getting banged around, noticing this we tossed bugs and K.O’s up into the reeds managing to pick up 3 more good solid bass before they just stopped biting.
Shad had moved thru and the bass seemed to be more focused on them, so we made a switch to some top water minnows. Quick pops WITHOUT moving the lure was the key, as we managed to get 6 more bass, all of which came in between 5 and 5 ½ pounds each.
Pop R’s and chug bugs managed 3 more bass about 2 to 3 pounds each before we decided to call it a day. A lot of great hydrilla in these areas, which was a big key to catching the bass, also saw a lot of schooling activity out around the island, mostly which was taking place about 20 to 30 feet off the grass beds and pretty consistant. Bass all looked very healthy and were very aggressive when they hit.
Till my next report, tight lines and great fishing!!!!!!
