January 2023 – Freshwater

Sometimes after fishing charters you come to realize that luck, or the man upstairs, was on your side! Without the expected spawn in January, there were lots of times that studying those bythemtry maps became the key to finding fish. Water temperatures stayed close to 63 degrees, and that is still about 5 degrees too cold for spawning here in Central Florida. So, much like the summer pattern, it came down to ledges, flats, and humps. In addition, a little extension on the fluorocarbon leader line was necessary because the water clarity was really good. After some fine tuning, we had success catching mostly largemouth bass. No crappie, long-nose gar, chain pickerel, bowfin, or catfish were caught. However, forecasted warmer weather looks to arrive over the next couple weeks in February. The spawn should be on, and then it’s game on! Thank you for reading, and we look forward to seeing you on the water!
