Water level is around 12 feet as of last weekend. From what Kidd posted in a previous post you can get to the Monkey box. He said they are flippin 1 oz anything. We fished the south side of Kings Bar going in and out of the cuts and did good. Caught a 5+ flippin black and blue yamamoto flippin bait in a reed head. Bigger ones seemed to be in the reeds but the Kissimmee grass was loaded with smaller fish. We caught a mixed bag of smaller and medium size fish in the pads. Black trick worms fished texas rigged where the key to catchin the smaller fish although we had a few bigger bites too. Heard Tin House Cove and Harvey Pond are hot too but didn't fish them. Good Luck!
