Carp
Carp fishing in the waters surrounding Mount Dora can be a rewarding challenge. The Harris Chain of Lakes holds a healthy population of carp, offering anglers the chance to target these often-overlooked fish. Focus your efforts in areas with abundant vegetation, such as lily pads and submerged grass, as carp often forage in these areas. Sweet corn, boilies, and dough baits are popular choices. Pre-baiting a spot can significantly increase your chances of success. The warmer months are generally the best time to target carp, as they are more active in warmer water. A key local tip is to use a heavy sinker to keep your bait anchored in the often-muddy bottom. Be patient and observant, and you may be surprised by the size of the carp you encounter.
