Lake Kissimmee

Largemouth bass anglers will most likely need to expend their fishing effort during the cooler periods of the day as unpleasant heat from summer air temperatures will be in full force during most of the daylight hours. Anglers still should be able to find fish to bite. Brahma and Grassy islands, Lemon and Philadelphia Points, North Cove and the Pig Trail should be a good place to try. Anglers should Try spinnerbaits, senkos, flukes and plastic worms in and around hydrilla beds. Crankbaits should also work well fished just off the hydrilla edge. Try some topwater baits over hydrilla beds in the early mornings.

Also look for schools of baitfish being busted out of the water by largemouth bass. Throw a lipless crankbait in the area when experiencing this feeding frenzy for some hot action.

Good places to try for panfish are the lily pads and bulrush around Overstreet landing, Philadelphia Point, and Brahma Island. Try using crickets or red wigglers just off the bottom.
