Spring has sprung and so has the bite on Orlando’s Lake Toho. With the cold fronts out of the way, the temps are becoming more steady and the fish are gorging themselves now after the spawn. The bass are beginning to school and chase bait to the surface in certain areas and 20-30 fish days are becoming common! 

The best bite on our charters has been on shiners, especially if you’re looking for bigger bass. But artificials have been productive also. Flukes, jerkbaits, senkos, speedworms, and topwaters in the areas the bass have been schooling have all been working well. 

As we move to the summer the bass have mostly all moved offshore in submerged grass flats. Good flats of hydrilla, peppergrass, and eel grass cover the lake. Once you’re over top of one of these grass flats, just get to fishing. Nearly all of these areas throughout Toho are holding bass right now, and keep your eyes peeled, as bass have been coming up schooling occasionally throughout the lake also.

Lake Toho is setting up extremely well for the rest of the year and as the grass continues to grow throughout the summer, it should only get better.

Bass wishes,
