Okeechobee Bass Fishing Report:
May
2002
Florida bass fishing reports for each month
of the 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999 and 1998 calendar years that describe
the amount and size of bass caught, the Lake Okeechobee Florida
bass fishing techniques used by guides to catch them, the areas
of Lake Okeechobee that produced the best bass fishing action,
and other bass fishing information is contained in our Lake Okeechobee
Florida bass fishing reports. To ensure validity the angler's name address, city, state, phone number,
e-mail address, date and year the party fished is also included
in every fishing report.
The
Lake Okeechobee Florida bass fishing has started out great for
the first week of May. The excellent trophy bass fishing of April seemed to be
carrying over into May. However, heavy windy conditions and a
unusually rare "cold front" which has never hit us during
this time of the year devastated the bass fishing. The gale force
winds that hit Lake Okeechobee besides stirring up the bottom
also shut down the fish.
