Pretty much open water everywhere and with this warm week coming up I think Ice will be a thing of the past. Yay for me but sad for some of you guys. Do you guys prefer ice fishing over open water?

| We're open water people for sure, we'd keep our boat in the water year round if possible. |

As much as I enjoy ice fishing, I'd much rather fish open water. However, I hate these in between days, when there's too much skim ice to take a boat out, but not enough ice to ice fish safely.
I'll get to fish Lake Okeechobee in Florida for a couple of days in a week and a half. I'm gonna throw a frog!

Hey Peco!
Where on Lake O are you going to be fishing out of ? I used to fish club tournaments there, mostly out of Clewiston. Roland Martin has a marina there. Now is a good time to go because the fish are active and the temps are good. Just pray for no cold fronts. Boy, am I jealous! I had some memorable times there.
We used alot of Senkos (Texas & wacky), Horny toads, Gambler flappin' shads, worms, rattle traps, and flippin'. June bug, watermelon, pumpkin, black/blue are some awesome colors for soft plastics.
Good luck and take lots of pictures.
P.S. Don't let the gators hit your bait !!

We'll head out of Clewiston, too. I plan to spend one day fishing with my daughter and father-in-law, so I'll do whatever they want to do, but I plan to hit the pads on the other day, throwing a frog and flipping. And, yes, I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for perfect weather.
