    Florida Bass Fishing in Oct

    My wife and I are flying to the Ft Myers area in Oct for a vacation. I have never bass fished in Florida. What would be the best option for a one day guided trip near Ft Myers. I had thought about the Everglades or Ocachobe. Thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated.

    I just finished a 1/2 day on Okeechobee with Tight Splice Charters today. Cody was fantastic! I have never fished a lake with heavy weeds like Okeechobee or other fl. lakes. He took the time to make sure I was not only able to Flip, punch and fish a swimbait (these are techniques I wanted to learn) but insured I was comfortable doing all three. His equipment is top notch and he was cheerful and very respectful the entire trip. He knows the lake from north to south and east to west. I will be using him to fish the Everglades for Peacock Bass very soon. Here is his Facebook page.
