    Default Visited Rodman Dam here in Florida


    One of a few man made reservoirs in Florida. The place is alive with wildlife. It's a dam the guberment made to create a barge canal across the state which was never finished. It's actually up the lake from me, up the Ocklawaha river which runs through Lake Griffin and flows North. It's kinda a barrier between my waters, and the Atlantic Ocean. You can navigate to the Atlantic Ocean on the other side of this dam, so there's a ton of wildlife at this stopping point particularly with all the water action off the dam. Take a look if you have a few minutes.



    Looks like Youtube is still processing the video for HD, might want to wait for the better resolution version.

    Nice cool spot. I fished above the dam in Rodman reservoir a couple of times back in the day when I lived in Jacksonville.

    It's not the numbers or the size, it's the time spent on the water!

    Yep, they caught and snagged catfish like crazy. Too many, the fishermen kinda wanted to catch bass and stripers more.
