Kim City - Feb 26 - The Rock vs Lake Okeechobee

[Dock-in-it]

I fished yesterday morning and a few hrs this morning. Yesterday the A-rig was not yielding much so I settled on catching mostly K's on a 3" swimbait with 3/8 jig head to help cut thru the wind. Had 8 keepers and there was a LM in the bunch. These fish were in a pocket that had some shad. I fished another pocket that was loaded with shad and could not get a bite (with fish present). This morning my main goal was to stay out of the brutal wind and I caught 3 keepers. One on a jerkbait and two on the A-rig. The jerkbait fish was a SM on the main lake and the A-rig fish were in a protected pocket. I have followed the BPT on the Big O and I would rather be fishing Table Rock this week. I grew up in Florida and I know the cold fronts can shut the bass down.....we just hunted and fished for speckled trout in the winter months.

I did see some BFL guys practicing this morning and I know the wind eliminated more than 75% of possible locations to check out.
