Frequent Asked Questions of North Florida Fishing
What part of North Florida has the best fishing?
North Florida’s most appreciated fishing grounds, and one of the best areas in Florida. Nestled between Jacksonville and Daytona Beach is World Renowned St Johns River, and just east of St Augustine is a famed Rodman Reservoir.

All have the perfect mix of trophy bass and crappie fishing, and boy is it amazing what North Florida offers!
What is the best month to fish in North Florida?
North Florida is unique as it has the warm summer months, but also the very cool winters. This is because summer months bass seems to go deeper and be less active. In the spring and fall, you will find the most activity. The winter months are known for the big spawning bass, but also cold, windy seasonal days. More specifically, the best months are from late February to June (and, some years, even November) are when the weather cools off for an early winter.
What fish are biting in North Florida?
- Largemouth bass. Sometimes called the “Black Bass,” the bass is highly prized for its fighting ability but not valued as a great food source.
- Crappie…Sometimes called the “Speck,” the Crappie is highly prized for its taste and highly valued as a great food source.
- Bluegill & Redread Panfish…Known as the original fish-eating table food. Simply called “Panfish,” the panfish is also highly prized for its taste and highly valued as a great food source.

How do people dress for fishing charter?
In layers is best, but fishing is casual. A sundress for ladies with bikini underneath is not uncommon. Khaki shorts for guys is as dressed up as anyone ever gets, long pants work if you’re not using to the sun. In the same vein, there are no “styles.” Get comfortable with whatever dress code is the norm. But always try to wear light colors as they are cooler.
