Location and Method:

Large lake, very shallow up to only 8 ft deep. Variety of cover. The lake is near Hwy 27 south of Sebring. Gotta check this lake out for some great Florida bass fishing.

#1- Small island- I like the west side of the island. Nice buggy whips and cattails in 4-5 ft. Flip or pitch a junebug/redshad worm in 1/4-3/8 ounce. Good  all year round.

#2-Big island- This island doesn't have as deep of water as the west side of the small one, but the opening to the cut from the south is good in the spring(3-4 ft). Cast or pitch 1/4 ounce worm to buggy whips/cattails and pads.

#3-Cattails/buggy whips offshore weedline- The northeast side and the entire west line is good for pitching a worm (1/4 ounce) most of the year(4-5 ft). On the west side, try a #7 shad rap away from the cover in the 7-10 ft of water.

#4-Cut through island- The cut itself is good in early spring. A fluke or lightly weighted worm (1/8 ounce) cast near structure is great! Cut is usually only 2 ft deep.

#5-Offshore hydrilla beds/peppergrass- These beds are in water from 5-8 ft deep. Look for definite lines. Cast worms (1/4 ounce), work #7 shadrap and try boy howdy around clumps. In scattered stuff, also try 1/2 ounce black/blue rattletrap. Spinnerbait works in the thicker stuff, especially with wind. Good summertime spot.

#6-Josephine creek- I can't say I've done much here, but some fishermen in my bass club with johnboats have caught boatloads up this creek.

#7-Hendersons cove- The pads and reeds to the left of Henderson's landing (looking from the water) is usually good in late spring. A good 200 yard stretch. Pitch or cast a red shad worm into the 3-4 foot of water near the pads. Use 1/4 ounce weight and redshad.

#8- Arbuckle creek- The mouth of the creek often has smaller schooling fish, especially where the 1st cut to the left intersects it, just past the sandbar as you are entering it (2-3 ft). Use smaller worms (6") in any color and 1/8 ounce weight. Cast upstream, near the cover and let the current work it back. Watch your line for irregular movement.
