Xtreme on Lake Seminole. Posted in Fall Fishing Journal. Photo from xtremefishingseries.com. I recently fished the Xtreme Bass Championship on Lake Seminole. They were giving away a new Ranger so I had hopes of winning a new boat on the drive up there. With all the tournaments I’ve been fishing lately, I only had 2 days of practice that me and my partner Pete could devote to finding fish. A lot of the other top finishing anglers told me they were on a rattletrap bite which I would’ve loved to have ...

Finally Have Some Fish Located Before a Tournament. Posted in Winter Fishing Journal. After 2 long days of serious searchin, I finally found some fish for the Xtreme Tournament. At John’s Lake on January 3rd, 2009. I was starting to get worried because all I could find for a while were 12″ fish, but today was a fantastic day. I even dropped my phone in the water but it landed on some weeds and it still works. I never have that kind of luck. I fished 2 areas and caught a 4 pounder on a Gitem. I sure hope ...

Beginning of Bedding Season. Posted in Spring Fishing Journal. We’ll see what happens during the open but I’d feel a lot more confident if I can figure out where the heck these fish are staging before they move on to bed. I’ve checked shell bars, offshore hydrilla, outside grass lines, inside grass lines, and pads. The beds are made but most of them aren’t there. Where the heck are they?

Almost Ready for the Open. Posted in Winter Fishing Journal. I’ve been out in some brutally cold weather for Florida standards since Saturday. I spent the weekend on Lake Kissimmee and Monday on Lake Toho. I’m catching fish in a mix of vegetation. I can catch fish anywhere with that combination. In fact, I ran all of Lake Kissimmee looking for that combination. Everywhere I saw it, I would pull in, get a bite, and go to the next spot and do the same thing. I guess I’ll finalize my game plan after t...

Johns Lake Wednesday Night Tournament - Rattletrap Ramblings | Rattletrap Ramblings

Johns Lake Wednesday Night Tournament. Daylight savings means it doesn’t get dark until later and that the Wednesday night tournament at Johns Lake in Winter Garden is back on. It starts at 5:30 so you can swing over there after work and fish until dark for some cash and hear some made up fishing stories. It’s a lot of fun for just $25. They love that junebug Gitem KO. On this lake and I went through almost two packs on those little rascals. Anyway, I weighed in 6.9 pounds which was good enough f...It...

First Day on Lake Kissimmee - Rattletrap Ramblings | Rattletrap Ramblings
http://www.rattletrapramblings.com/2014/01/08/day-lake-kissimmee
First Day on Lake Kissimmee. Posted in Winter Fishing Journal. I heard the cold weather was coming so I spent the day on Lake Kissimmee this past Sunday in warm 80 degree weather with hardly any wind at all. It’s probably the best weather I will see in the next several weeks. It’s absolutely amazing how much the grass changes from year to year. The places where they were bedding last year are now filled in with hydrilla and a lot of places that was topped out is now clear. Aquatic Plants in Florida.

First Day of Toho Practice - Rattletrap Ramblings | Rattletrap Ramblings

First Day of Toho Practice. Posted in Winter Fishing Journal. I checked out Toho this past weekend in preparation for the Open coming up in January. Water temps were in the high 60’s, air temp in the mid 80’s, sunny skies, but the bedding has not started yet. The fish are still in the open water hydrilla in the same places I’ve been catching them all summer. They were gone for a while so I think they’re returning to the same areas in prespawn mode.
