Fishing the Fellsmere Way

Fellsmere isn't your average fishing hole - it's a bass angler's paradise. You'll likely start the day targeting those big largemouth bass that have made this spot famous. Your guide might have you flipping soft plastics into heavy cover, working topwater lures across lily pads, or slow-rolling spinnerbaits along underwater structure. As the day heats up, you might switch gears and go after the prehistoric bowfin. These hard-fighting fish require a different approach, often using live bait or cut bait fished near the bottom. Your guide will show you the ropes, helping you read the water and choose the right presentation for the conditions.

Top Catches This Season

Anglers have been crushing it on Fellsmere lately. The bass fishing has been red hot, with several 10+ pounders coming to the boat. Bowfin action has been steady too, with some real dinosaurs in the 8-10 pound range giving folks a run for their money. Your guide will have the inside scoop on what patterns have been working best, so you can make the most of your time on the water.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Largemouth Bass: The star of the show in Fellsmere, these bucket-mouths can grow to trophy sizes in these nutrient-rich waters. Spring and fall are prime times for big bass, but you can catch them year-round. They're known for their explosive strikes and acrobatic fights, making them a favorite among anglers. In Fellsmere, a 10-pounder is always a possibility, which keeps anglers coming back for more.

Bowfin: Often called "mudfish" or "cypress trout" by locals, bowfin are living fossils that have been around since the time of the dinosaurs. They're ambush predators with a nasty attitude and a set of teeth to match. Bowfin put up an incredible fight, often making multiple runs and even jumping clear out of the water. They're most active in the warmer months and can be found in the weedy, swampy areas of Fellsmere. Landing a big bowfin is like wrestling a prehistoric creature - an experience you won't soon forget.
