Two weeks until I get to fish the Kissimmee area for BASS. The trip is reserved with guide. What a thrill and I can only hope for a big one, but I really don't care. I would like to fish artificials, but understand that he uses big shiners for big fish. Who cares, I will get to fish where the

big ones live. This old man has waited for 65 years for this chance. Hopefully, I will have some good pictures to share.

I was born in that area and go back every summer. Although those shiners arent as fun to fish, they catch a lot of big fish. Good luck!

Shiner fishing is a BLAST! I did it back in June for the first time, self-guided on the Kissimmee River and on Okeechobee. Good luck and watch out for gators.
