JJDobro Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Need Bass fishin partner for fun fishin, maybe tourneys as well. Hi guys , I recently aquired a 16' alum. Bass boat and need a partner cuz I'm tired of fishin alone. I live 1 hour north of Orlando and have been fishin the Harris chain and the St. John's only because they're the closest to me. I can meet you at whatever lake you wanna fish within say 2 hr drive. I am retired and can go anytime. I am a former Ohio B.A.S.S. tourney fisherman so pretty much know what I am doing. Quote

Brent Tillman Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Hey guys live in N Broward usually just fish my local canal behind my apt complex. So far this is my pb. 5.8 lbs. Surprised the heck out of me. Caught on Christmas Day throwing a tr zoom trick worm but I don't remember the color. I belive it had blue in it a color that usually doesn't catch fish in my local canals. Mainly watermelon seed and watermelon with red flake catch the most fish. PS. This has to be the ugliest bass I have ever seen!!! It almost looked fake to me. Edited March 7, 2016 by Brent Tillman Just wanted to add the PS at the bottom. 4 Quote

Manatee Lake in the state park. Not a pond but its under fished by people and can have an awesome topwater bite at times. 1 Quote
From the Bank Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Moving to JAX in 2 days, fishing from bank, coming from VA. Would like to locate some ponds where there are trophy fish for catch/release. Will be living 4090 Hodges Blvd 32224 - is there anyone out there who knows the local scene of ponds/retention ponds....don't want to spend 5 years figuring it out. Will be absolutely silent on whatever you show me, just want to catch some big ones to keep my mental hygiene going. Love the big bass fishing.

Yeti51 Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 NORTH CENTRAL FLORIDA Hey guys! I am a bass enthusiast in Gainesville, FL. I have fished the hell out of the lakes near me to no avail. Spent entire days on the water with no bites, caught a handful of bream and catfish. Was just wondering if this is a North Central Florida thing or if I am doing something wrong? Have tried everything: flipping creatures, jigs, shallow crank baits, texas rigs, even live bait. Any advice for places to fish in the area would be great! Thanks a bunch! Quote

My advice is swimming zoom speed worms, seems to work pretty well around here. Where all have you tried? Quote

Catching way more fish than anything else I have tried locally. Mostly real small but a couple 2-3lb. Using green pumpkin and coppertreuse zman trd with the 1/10oz shroomz jighead. Bruce Quote
Super User geo g Posted April 25, 2016 Super User Posted April 25, 2016 Went to the Alley Sunday morning. The water is dropping and if it continues the fish in the flats will head for deeper water in the canals. Then the fishing will get crazy out there. If mother nature cooperates, 100 fish days will be the norm again. 1 Quote
Bassin407 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Lake Mary here. Went out to the river today caught a few small ones and a 15 lb catfish. Quote

Gotfishyfingers? Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Ft. Myers area would the the closest. Check out google maps for water close by. 1 Quote
dlamb Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 got some spots in Jacksonville that you will catch quantity and quality. All east of 295. Also just stumbled on a dirt road that takes you to a pond that is stacked with fish. If anyone wants to fish just get at me.

Yes they are fire, also the ponds by the small airport on lantana have some lunkers in them Quote
hawgenvy Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 Fished Alligator Alley this AM. Started at 7 and tried every bait and technique in our bags of tricks -- only 2 dinks. Quit after 11 am. Maybe it was the full moon, or too much current, or the recent rain, or us. Who knows. Quote
