Largemouth Bass
Orlando's chain of lakes and surrounding waters offer excellent largemouth bass fishing opportunities. The Butler Chain, Conway Chain, and Tohopekaliga (Toho) are all renowned for producing quality bass. Spring and fall are prime times, as bass are actively feeding and spawning. Focus on areas with hydrilla, lily pads, and submerged structure. Flipping and pitching soft plastics around heavy cover is a productive technique. For clear water, try topwater lures early and late in the day. Local tip: Many of the lakes in the Orlando area have public access points, but parking can be limited, especially on weekends. Consider launching from a less crowded ramp and exploring by boat. Also, be aware of the presence of alligators and other wildlife, and take necessary precautions. The Kissimmee Chain of Lakes south of Orlando is known for producing trophy-sized bass.
