nice mess of specks.nice shirt too.
Hello to all! Glad to have found this board. Anyhow, I live and fish in West Volusia Co. I Live about 5 minutes from French landing(on the river) and 15 from lake Monroe.I love fishing for speck, and devote most of my time on the water to it.I spend most of my time on small local lakes and around Franch landing and Blue Springs as my only vessel is a canoe at this time. I typically only use artificials(mainly jigs), many of which my G/f and I make. Here is a picture of me after a recent trip to a lake in the Lake Helen/Cassadaga area..
We brought home 16 keepers, the smallest being just over 10 inches. Anyhow, looking forward to meeting everyone!

Welcome Will, So glad to see something from Volusia. I'm from near Macon, GA. I used to come to Volusia Bar about 3 times a year. Fished in Mud Lake, Blue Creek, Monroe and Dexter. During that time we only fished artificials about 3' under a cork. We spent ou time casting and catching Specks. We went out on Lake Geo. a few times to the bombing range and drifted with minnows, caught a lot of Specks. in April we would go up to Lake Dexter for Shell Cracker. All this was probably before you were born. Maybe you can find the Shell Crackers this year, then we can get to meet a local fisherman.Thanks for the pic and the report.
Yjwill, i live in sanford about a mile from monroe..have fished monroe and the river for 50 plus years and have caught some fine bass out there also..right now they are limiting out on the specks in the river..
