Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report: Warm Conditions, Frog Patterns, and Solid Canal Action

# Lake Okeechobee Fishing Report - Sunday, November 30, 2025 Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Sunday morning fishing report for Lake Okeechobee. We're looking at sunrise this morning around 6:50 AM, so you're already well into prime fishing time if you're out there. Weather-wise, we're expecting warmer conditions today compared to yesterday. That cold front that moved through earlier this week really did a number on the bite, but things are starting to stabilize. The lake was off a bit due to that weather system, but there's definitely still plenty of fish to be caught. From the latest tournament reports out of the 2025 Bassmaster Elite Qualifier wrapping up this weekend, anglers are finding success in several key areas. The canals are producing consistent limits, though the lake itself is still holding quality fish. We're seeing average weights around two and a half pounds per fish, with some nice three-pounders coming out of the canal systems. Here's what's working right now: frog patterns are hot, especially as the morning warms up. Anglers are also having success with live bait and soft plastics worked slowly along the vegetation. The mats and scattered reeds continue to be proven patterns, particularly for bigger fish that might be thinking about staging for the spawn. As for hot spots, focus on the Monkey Box and Horny Pond areas on the west side. The canal system north of Okeechobee City is also showing some solid activity. If you want to be thorough, don't overlook Fish Eating Bay and the areas just over the levy line. Bait-wise, live shiners and crawfish patterns are solid choices. For artificials, think smaller finesse presentations and topwater as it warms up. Thanks for tuning in to your Lake Okeechobee report.
