GUIDE TO NORTH FLORIDA BASS
WATERS
Many anglers are surprised to learn that many of the Florida
state records, and even several world record fish, come from
North Florida. In his book, Guide to North Florida Bass
Waters, Larry Larsen focuses on the top bass rivers and
lakes from the western tip of the Florida panhandle east to the
Atlantic Ocean and south to, and including, St. Johns, Clay,
Alachua and Levy counties. This region includes the St. Johns
River, Lakes Talquin and Seminole, Orange Lake, Lake Lochloosa,
the Suwannee, Apalachicola, Nassau and Santa Fe Rivers, and is
the most productive in terms of big fish for all bass species!
While largemouth bass are the main
focus, Guide to North Florida Bass Waters
also mentions Suwannee bass, spotted bass, redeye and
shoal bass. Also included are striped bass, hybrid
striped bass and white bass. Information on lake records
is included for those anglers wishing to prepare in
advance to try to set their own. The award-winning author
lists specific spots on each of the North Florida waters
covered and reviews effective techniques that he and
others have employed. Dozens of photos, launching
areas, maps, and other water details are also included
for many of each region's lakes and rivers. The 192-page
volume includes several appendices listing significant
lakes in each county and surface acreage; addresses and
telephone numbers of game and fish offices; and offices
of county chambers of commerce. A comprehensive index
includes a cross reference of lakes, rivers and creeks,
bass species, cities, counties and fisheries information
that will help anglers quickly locate and review each
reference throughout the book.
