  • Lake Okeechobee's monster bass finally showed up and record catches were taken! The western and northern reedy shorelines , particularly where the blue gills were bending, held hundreds of giant bass with 20 , 5 bass stringers over 30 pounds on the Roland Martin Marina tournament on Saturday May 6th 2023. This appears to be a Florida record tournament catch! I fished the lake the following Monday and Tuesday and did equally as well. The water was calm and the strikes were legendary. I also explain all the details and the pattern. This is epic frog fishing!

    In my opinion if we take modern day electronics out of the equation, Roland is the best natural fisherman ever to walk the earth. He has the sixth sense. So connected to what the fish are doing.

    I snip one of the double hooks off the frog so it has only one hook.
    I use a spincasting reel to cast far easily, on an old-school short grip handle 5.5' rod.
    If casting close quarters shorter distance, I use a baitcaster on a 5.5' spinning handle rod with that rod end bulb Roland has.
    I always use 20lb. mono line.
    Someday a company will make a single 6/0 hook frog, I think with a 1/2-ounce weight inside it, that still floats high.

    I watched Roland every week back in the 80s and 90s. There is one person responsible for everyone knowing about Lake Okeechobee bass...and it's Roland Martin (well, Doug Hannon too)! Anyway, I find Roland's You Tube Channel today and I swear I'm still watching a video from the 90s! Roland never ages, I guess...and I'm glad he's still doing well!! :)

    Ive been watching roland for a long tine and enjoy his excitement for fishing. I have 1 question. I love top water fishing and i was just wondering if a black frog is the way to go in Virginia. Ive always used a dark green frog and was wondering if it would be good to get an arsenal of black frogs. Love ya roland and keep up the good fishing.
