Panasofkee has some.
Do any of the lakes bear Tampa have decent Crappie fishing? Or do I need to head into center of the state? Looks like I'm transferring to that location this summer.
Panasofkee has some.
Lake Tarpon - 2,535 acres - Tarpon Springs Florida
excellant Crappie fishery
Medard Reservoir East of Brandon, Fl 10 miles 850 acre impoundment has
excellant crappie fishery
Lake Manatee - 35 mile south of Tampa 2,350 acres - excellant
Lakes east of Tampa within 80 -100 miles are all excellant Crappie habitats
KIssimmee - Walk-in-Water -Rosalie-Hatchinaw- East & West Toho - Arbuckle
Marion - Pierce - Tiger Lake - Reedy........
There is a house for sale on lake tarpon. Was looking for a house with a yard for the kids but I may have to rethink that.
Thank you
go on our Florida Crappie Club forum in Florida
We have 20 tournaments a year with different lakes - can research back 5 yrs to
various lakes around Tampa and see results, what type equipment was used
and time of year.
Any recent news on crappie lakes near TAMPA?
WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE IS...FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE
YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID
Been hearing some decent reports from Teneroc near Lakeland. That's not a bad drive from Tampa.
I haven't transitioned to specks yet this season, but am getting ready to. Should start picking up. I haven't fished the stuff around Tampa though.
Pretty much answered your question - 3 yrs ago - Lake Tarpon would be first on list - Medard off hwy 60 east of brandon and then moving east to Kissimmee Chain - Spec wise not all that good in the Winter Haven chain - Bass fishing is good
East & West Toho around the city of KIssimmee
South on I-75 - Lake Manatee is excellent Spec lake - however, restricted to motor size 20 hp
North on I-75 Inverness - Floral City good Spec Lakes
Have you fished medard in recent years fishin813? I fished it last year a couple times with no success.
Did catch some sunshine bass in there on Sunday, didn't try for specks at all.
