Florida Freshwater Fishing Forecast

The Full Article, Providing Info Anglers Need to Catch More Fish - Aug. 4-11, 2024

New Moon and Tropical Storm Debby, Challenges Anglers

The Florida Freshwater Fishing Forecast for the first full week of August gives anglers the second half of a strong new moon phase—new moon occurs today, and a tropical storm which will produce medium winds under twenty mph and significant rainfall and clouds through the midweek.

All fishing factors considered; anglers will experience great fishing if they know their limitations in twenty mph winds and have taken the proper precautions to safely endure lots of rain while on the water, such as a properly working bilge pump and healthy batteries. Nothing like fishing in a Florida tropical storm during a strong new moon.

Make sure to have an ‘escape lightning’ plan which includes taking cover in a vehicle or building and not under trees or anything else. Be smart, know your physical limitations and always err on the side of extreme caution---play it safe.

The following basic information is what you will need to know to increase the odds of catching fish over the next seven days. But to access the complete article which breaks down all the relevant fishing factors in detail, point your internet browser to HighlandsBassAngler.com.
