Okeechobee Anglers Enjoy Steady Conditions, Hot Bass and Crappie Bite in June
Lake Okeechobee anglers, this is Artificial Lure with your local fishing report for June 11, 2025.
Conditions are shaping up for a fantastic day on the water. Water levels are steady right around 11 feet, concentrating fish and ramping up the action, according to the Lake Okeechobee, Florida Fishing Report - Daily. Sunrise came early at 6:34 AM, and sunset will close out the day at 8:16 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to chase those trophies. The morning saw calm winds and a light cloud cover, keeping the bite hot through the early hours.
Bass fishing has been truly exceptional this June. Captain Mark from lakeokeechobeebassfishing.com notes that both numbers and quality of largemouth bass are up, with several reports of anglers landing monster bass, including a few tipping the scales at seven pounds or better. Most successful catches have come early, so get out before the sun really starts to bake.
The crappie bite is running just as strong. Captain Experiences and recent reports show anglers experiencing days with 100–150 crappie, and some slabs stretching up to 14 inches and weighing close to two pounds. Focus your efforts in open water pockets near vegetation for the best results. Bluegill and shellcracker are still hanging along the grass edges as well—perfect for families or those looking to fill a cooler.
Best baits right now: for bass, stick with wild shiners if you want trophy action. But don’t overlook soft plastics like Senkos and Speed Worms in junebug or watermelon red, especially worked along the outside grass lines. Early in the morning, white or black frogs and popping topwaters have produced some explosive strikes in the thicker mats. For crappie, small jigs tipped with minnows are the ticket—stick with bright colors on overcast days, and natural patterns in the clear.
A couple of hot spots you don’t want to miss: Bay Bottom, stretching between Belle Glade and Grassy Island, is on fire for both bass and crappie, offering calm waters for shore and boat anglers alike. Over on the west side, The Shoal is another standout, especially near the Kissimmee River mouth—thick grass lines are loaded with largemouth. And for those after tranquility and a mixed bag, Fisheating Creek on the western edge promises bass, crappie, and bluegill for the kayakers and explorers.
Tides aren’t a major factor on the lake, but pay attention to wind direction, as it can push bait and fish up against windward shorelines, especially mid-afternoon.
