- Punching Lake Okeechobee for bass is always epic and one of the most techniques when fishing for trophy largemouth bass. With Florida spring coming it's time to brush up on our punching skills and lay out some of the inside details from fishing rods and reels, baits, terminal tackle, and fishing tips for where - when - and how to target bass in heavy vegetation.
On Lake Okeechobee the best time of year to use this fishing technique is from October to April - basically what most people call winter is an elongated spring pre-spawn period for fish. This means waves of bass staging and spawning throughout these months and punching is a great way to target them. in the vid we highlight how to fish for bass in emergent vegetation like cattails, bully whips, and lily pads, as well as mats like hydrilla, penny wort, and hyacinth. If you want to learn how to punch for bass it's all right here.

Funny listening you speak from florida about punching when the water is cooler. Over here in New York punching season isnt untill the heart of summer time post spawn when the vegetation surfaces together. Love your channel dude, keep it up!
I could watch you do this all day man!!!
Man I could listen to this all day. I wish I could be doing some punching where I'm at. But we're getting into that fall bite finally so topwater is getting hot, weird weather though. Been.down as low as 36 and today was 75 so things are dragging and fish have been in and out or in between. Most of the vegetation hasn't started dying yet. Once it does I'm gunna pull my frogs and big weights out and get to work!! I like these kind of videos.
I liked the part where he caught the bass
Still a great intro three years later
Going through the ole Mikey vids again.never gets old bro.keep those new vids coming
Central Florida everything u said is spot on. It's takes as much time to learn to punch successfully as it does to learn any other techniques. I just take 3 rods and only punch all day. U have to accept that the bite is slow but generally big like over 5 big around here.
Love junk mats! And hvy pad fields! Ive blown a few out at pressured spots around my home.tried the d&m Matt rats,and t- rigged tungsten .had 1 on the t rig.also blow holes in grass pockets. Drop the jig in there,and pow! Action trailer on the fall worked good!
Mikey. You should write a book...
Dude these Gambler plastics look great
Great video. Like the way you explain punching. Gives me a whole way to fish. Thanks.
Great vid man. Just moved to Florida, never flipped before. This video is probably the most informative and interesting one I've seen. Can't wait to try it out soon
This really helps Mike...I live in Florida with lots of heavy mats. I am learning so much from your videos.
IMHO: One of the best descriptions explaining the variety of vegetation and punching. The descriptions of targeted points in various mat covers very good.
