Florida warm water fisheries

Hi all,

I just spent 3 weeks on the central east coast of FL around Sebastian. It is
famous for the brackish intercostals water way like the Indian river lagoon
but I was amazed at the exotic lakes, marshes, jungle like streams and
ponds with bass and panfish. I guess that their winter is a big bass/panfish
time and I could not believe the amount of water back there. Because it
rains all summer they have ponds to hold the rain water everywhere. Wal-Mart
and Lowes have ponds. Schools have ponds. Communities have ponds. There are
canals everywhere too. All these ponds have fish and crocks.

I caught about a 5 pound bass on my fly rod in the pond our daughter's new
home is on in a gated community in my pajamas one morning. "How he got in my
pajamas I will never know?"

I imagine that was a thrill, eh? My nephew switched to fly fishing about
5 years ago. It's the only way he fishes now, though mostly for trout
(Well, except for hard water LoL)

Hi JB,

I think it is the largest bass I have caught on anything so it was special.

Alligators, not crocks probably. There are a few, but a very few, American
Crocodials in Florida..

Depends where you are...theres some powerplant..cant remember the name, but
because the warm waters coming out of the plant, they survive really
well..something like 9 thousand american crocs downstream of this plant...cant
remember the name...saw it on the discovery channel.
