Greetings all. I will be going up to the Suwannee River in Live Oak for the first time in late December with a few friends. All of us fish regularly, but none of us have ever fished the Suwannee or even anywhere in North Florida. I would like to spend a day bass fishing for Suwannee bass and largemouth bass and then spend a day panfishing for various sunfish and crappie. Can anyone provide any tips for fishing the river during this time of year?
I can't offer any fishing tips, but boy is that one beautiful river up that way.
Thank you. That's what I hear and see from pictures. Now I just hope the fish cooperate those days.Quote:

When it has been raining hard, the current will be raging and fishing will be difficult (if not impossible). If weather conditions do make it fishable for you, I'd probably use a jig or minnow (or combination) under a float and let the current carry it past the standing cypress knees.
I am anxious to hear as we are not that far away.Sent from my SM-N960U using Crappie.com Fishing mobile appQuote:

Hope it drops well enough by late December. If anyone has any other info I'd love to hear it and I'll report back how the trip goes.
