    Florida bass fishing in November

    Plan to do a 14 day road trip to Florida pulling the boat but can’t do It until November. Want to hit Big O, Toho, and the Everglades (at least). How’s the fishing in November down there? I know It stays fairly warm down there but just curious.

    I can tell you that the Everglades is fishing ok right now, and that's with 90+ degree water temps. Its only going to get better, unless we start having cold fronts early this year. Then our bass get a little finicky.

    Do you think it’ll be too cold not November?

    Where’s a good base of operations and ramp for a few days in the Everglades?

    Depends where you are staying, and how far you are willing to drive. I always use Holiday Park as reference point. But you also have other ramp options along US 27, and several ramps along Alligator Alley.

    I’m staying wherever you guys tell me lol and/or sleeping in a sleeping bag on the deck of the boat, which I’ve done before! Driving 20 hours to get there so I’m down to drive.
