Pehr Wickenberg (Oct. 1, 1812 - 1846) was a Swedish artist who died quite young from tuberculosis. He entered the Academy in Stockholm at an early age and traveled extensively after graduating. One of his paintings ended up in the Louvre in Paris, but has since been lost - one of the museum directors lent it to a Parisian lady who failed to return it...

best winter fishing in florida

While winter blankets many regions in icy temperatures, Florida remains a haven for anglers seeking warmth and bountiful fishing opportunities. The Sunshine State's mild winter climate opens up a plethora of options for anglers to indulge in their favorite pastime. From saltwater to freshwater, Florida's diverse ecosystems offer a winter fishing paradise. Let's explore some of the best winter fishing spots and the species that lure anglers to Florida's waters during the cooler months.

1. Mosquito Lagoon: A Redfish Haven

Nestled along Florida's east coast, Mosquito Lagoon is renowned for its pristine waters and flourishing redfish population. Winter brings optimal conditions for sight fishing as cooler temperatures reduce water clarity, making it easier to spot redfish tailing in the shallows. Anglers can target these copper-colored beauties using artificial lures or live bait. Additionally, speckled trout and black drum are common catches in Mosquito Lagoon during the winter months.

2. Lake Okeechobee: A Bass Fishing Extravaganza

Florida's largest freshwater lake, Lake Okeechobee, is a bass fishing paradise that beckons anglers year-round. Winter brings about a unique scenario as bass migrate to the lake's warmer shallow waters. Spinnerbaits, soft plastics, and live shiners are effective bait choices for luring largemouth bass during this season. The expansive nature of Lake Okeechobee allows anglers to explore various hotspots, including the famed grassy areas and the Kissimmee River.

3. Tampa Bay: A Diverse Saltwater Playground

Tampa Bay offers a diverse range of saltwater fishing opportunities, making it an ideal destination for winter anglers. Snook, redfish, and spotted seatrout are prevalent during this season. The abundance of seagrass beds and mangrove shorelines provides excellent habitats for these species. Artificial lures such as soft plastics and jerkbaits, along with live shrimp, can prove fruitful when targeting these prized catches in Tampa Bay's clear winter waters.

4. Indian River Lagoon: Seatrout and Redfish Haven

Stretching along Florida's Atlantic Coast, the Indian River Lagoon is a productive estuary that attracts anglers in pursuit of seatrout and redfish during the winter months. The slightly cooler temperatures spur increased feeding activity among these species. Topwater lures, shrimp imitations, and live bait are effective choices for enticing seatrout and redfish in the lagoon's shallow waters.

5. Florida Keys: Winter Wonderland for Anglers

The Florida Keys, with their tropical allure, provide a unique winter fishing experience. While bonefish and permit are year-round targets, winter brings an increase in the population of these elusive flats species. Shallow flats and sandy bottoms offer prime opportunities for fly anglers to test their skills. Additionally, the waters surrounding the Keys are known for winter migrations of sailfish, making offshore excursions equally enticing during this season.

6. St. Johns River: Winter Crappie Bonanza

For freshwater enthusiasts, the St. Johns River becomes a winter crappie haven. As temperatures cool down, crappie, also known as speckled perch, gather in deeper holes and creek channels. Jigs, minnows, and small spinners are effective bait choices for enticing crappie bites. The St. Johns River's slow current and abundant structure make it an ideal setting for winter crappie fishing.

7. Fort Lauderdale Offshore: Sailfish Capital of the World

Fort Lauderdale's offshore waters become a winter playground for anglers targeting sailfish. The Gulf Stream's proximity brings sailfish closer to the coast, creating thrilling opportunities for both novice and seasoned anglers. Trolling with live bait or artificial lures and deploying kite fishing techniques are popular methods for targeting sailfish in the offshore waters of Fort Lauderdale

The Winter Panfish Fly Box

Most of my wintertime fly fishing is focused on trout. Not because I cannot catch panfish on the fly during the winter but because my local lakes are usually frozen over by this time of year. This year things are a bit different. Whether it is a result of global warming, changing jet stream patterns, or fluctuating ocean temperatures, the facts are clear; we are experiencing a mild winter here in the northeast. This morning, a day in the second week of February, I woke up to a temperature of sixty degrees at 5:00 am! Not a typical February weather pattern!

The trout fishing has been good, but these warmer days have me thinking about panfish. I have written extensively on where to find panfish during the colder months. In this blog post, I want to focus on the flies and equipment I use to target winter panfish. My fly selection during this time of the year differs from the warmer months.

The Winter Panfish Fly Box

My winter panfish fly box is missing a lot of common panfish patterns. Gone are the poppers and foam bugs, with one exception, all of my topwater flies are missing. The flies are much smaller as well. The fly selection consists primarily of wet flies, soft hackles, and nymphs. Here is a rundown of my top five winter panfish patterns.

Soft Hackles

Soft hackle wet flies will produce fish all year long, so there is no surprise they top the list. However, effective cold-water panfish patterns must have the ability to be fished very slowly and still provide some movement to attract fish. The soft hackle checks both these boxes. I can crawl them along at a snail's pace, and the delicate hackle will still move seductively in the water.

Traditional Wet Flies

Also, in my winter fly boxes are traditional winged wet flies. While I usually reach for a soft hackle pattern, there are times when winged wets will outproduce them.

Nymph Patterns

Nymph patterns are the most versatile patterns in my winter fly boxes as they can be fished by slowly retrieving them through the water or fished under an indicator. A panfish in cold water has a reduced metabolism that reduces its willingness to chase down a meal. However, a nymph dangling under an indicator seems to do the trick.

I tend to fish smaller flies during the winter as most of what the fish feeds on tends to be smaller. Midges have become an important food source, and other aquatic insects are still maturing, so they will also be smaller. My winter nymph assortment will include a variety of nymph patterns in sizes 14-18. There is nothing fancy here, just a mixture of natural, olive, and black Hares Ear nymphs and some Pheasant Tail nymphs. I always include a few tiny, damselfly nymphs in this box as well. I don't know how active these insects are during the winter, but a size 16 damselfly nymph is often a top producer for me.

Worm Patterns

I will include a few worms in my winter fly selection, particularly those tied with that silicon "squirmy" material. A squirmy worm dangled under an indicator is not much different than a worm under a bobber, and we all know how effective that method of fishing can be.

Midges

Midges, also known as Chironomidae, are often the most active insects during the winter months and make up a considerable part of a winter panfish's diet. All stages of this insect, the larva, pupae, and winged adults, can be pretty small. Even smaller items on the menu include zooplankton. These tiny invertebrates are active all winter long and often form dense clouds on which the fish feed. My fly box always contains a variety of simple midge larva flies in various colors and sizes. Pupae and winged adults have a place in that box as well. If there is open water, midges will emerge and hatch twelve months out of the year. I have had excellent dry fly fishing in late February, using tiny winged adult patterns.

At first glance, the cold water panfish fly box is rather dull. But the flies inside can bring success for the angler willing to brave the cold in search of winter panfish.

more dweebs (Very detailed image description below.)

a drawing of grian, ethoslab, tangotek, and smallishbeans. grian is in his season 10 fishing skin and the rest are in different outfits referencing their base themes.

grian is in his fishing skin looking very tired with his fishing rod swung over his shoulder and an ear pierced with a brassy fish hook. he’s a cod hybrid with fin-ears and a stubby tail. behind him blue snail is munching on some leaves.

etho is posing with a neck sheepishly behind his neck and the other resting on his bag. he’s in the postal uniform polo with a green, canadian maple-themed yukata loosely worn and slipping off his shoulder. he has fingerless gloves on under. he is wearing dark red pleated pants and light green heeled crocs. he has a black and red messenger bag with a trellis motif. etho is an arctic fox hybrid with brown legs and streaks through his hair. doodles below show what his paws look like under the crocs and one shows him posing with a note saying “ties up sleeves.” above him another note reads “streaks bc his winter coat is shedding.”

tango is posing confidently with a wrench. he is in the postal uniform polo, with chunky brown and orange gloves and boots, topped off with red, pinstriped overalls. one strap is not around his shoulder, and on the belt around the overalls they carry a small bag, a screwdriver, and a vial of redstone. he has on brown goggles with blue lenses. tango has fire for hair and pointed ears. above him there’s a doodle of the messenger bag that’s secured on his back. it shows how the orange straps tuck over the whole outfit and lead to a dark red and pinstripe blue bag with cog detailing.

joel is giving an indignant pose like he’s complaining. he is wearing a black undershirt that fades out into his light green claws, a pink kimono with only one sleeve of cherry blossom patterns, and a dark grey vest and cherry blossom-patterned obi tie it off. the vest has a cherry blossom crest on the back. joel also has on dark pink pants with a cherry blossom motif on the bottom and on his left arm there’s a bracer with a screen built in. crawling all over the undershirt there are cybernetic patterns connecting joel’s skin through to the undershirt. joel is a tanuki, hence why he has a leaf on his head. around joel are doodles showing the crest on the back of his vest and the pattern on the sleeve.
