Central Florida Bass Fishing Report, January 2021

Winter Bass Fishing

Winter time Bass fishing from December through March is a great time to book a Orlando Bass fishing charter on the Butler Chain of Lakes! The cooler temperatures make the Bass fishing good almost all day long, and our fish have big bellies right now since they are getting ready to spawn. We've been staring most of our fishing charters at 8am.

Pre-Spawn Bass Fishing

Our Bass are in full pre-spawn mode. This means that all the males and females are very active, and are feeding throughout most of the day. As these fish begin staging to spawn, they are commonly found in 10-20ft of water, and are feeding on the Hydrilla and Eel Grass edges. We've been fishing with Rapala Suspending Jerkbaits, Alabama Rigs, Senko's, and swimbaits. We are seeing schools of Bass and birds feeding all over the Butler Chain of Lakes, and most of our fish have big fat bellies right now! We have been catching around 15-25 Bass in 4 hours with the average fish weighing 2-3 pounds. We've been catching at least 1 fish over 4 pounds every trip, and expect to see bigger fish being caught as we get closer to the Spawn in mid February.
