Boats and Equipment

When's The Best Time To Come?

Is the foremost question I am asked by every angler planning a trophy bass fishing trip to Lake Okeechobee. In the 21 years I have guided on Okeechobee I would honestly have to say that there really isn't a bad time to fish Okeechobee. The summer months and early fall months produce good numbers of fish as well as trophy bass. The spawn (November - April) when the fish are bedding is considered to be the better months to catch a trophy Lake Okeechobee bass.

Things To Bring

Rain gear, camera, sun screen, cap and other such items. A medium - heavy action rod with 20 lb. test braided line and a "small tackle box" is all that is needed for shiner fishing. This type of equipment as well as all shiner fishing tackle is furnished free of charge by Ron's Guide Service. All guide fishing bass boats have a ice cooler storage compartment for soft drinks and food. Ice for the guide boat food and soft drinks cooler can be purchased down here. Terminal tackle (hooks, floats, weights, etc.) for wild shiner fishing and artificial lure fishing is furnished free of charge by Ron's Guide Service. We provide artificial lures on a you replace it if you loose it basis. We do not provide plastic worms. You can bring your own plastic worms or purchased them down here. Plastic worms 4 1/2 - 7 inch Fluke, Assassin or Yamamoto style worms as well as Zoom Finesse Worm or Trick Worm in Red-Shad, June-Bug, Watermelon, Black/Red Glitter or Black/Blue Glitter colors and a host of others are popular on Lake Okeechobee throughout the year.

Winter's general day temperature is 75 degrees. Nights and mornings are cool to cold. Late spring and early fall days are in the 80's. Summer days range in the 80's - 90's. Rainfall during the winter, early spring and late fall is slight. Brief afternoon showers are common in late spring, throughout the summer and early fall. Guides fish "rain or shine and under all weather conditions". Rain gear is a must bring item. If you are fishing during the winter months, be sure to bring some warm clothing with you -- it can get quite cold at times.
Hopefully bad weather does not interfere with your reserved fishing trip. We do not offer rain checks or a refund in the event a party is not able to fish due to bad weather conditions. We have no control over the weather and therefore we cannot be responsible for the disruption of your trip due to bad weather. Please bring rain gear with you. If bad weather moves in the decision to leave is up to the guide.
