With the torrential rains, wind blowing like a banshee, Covid-19, and the occassional hurricane, don’t give up on fishing in the northern Everglades. There is some great bass angling in freshwater lakes scattered throughout the Big Cypress Preserve and Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park accessible from the US 41 (the Tamiami Trail) and FL Highway 29 near Everglades City. All it takes is a little sleuthing on Google Maps to find these gems! And don’t be surprised if you catch a wayward snook or tarpon in the bargain. Here’s my latest article from Florida Sportsman to help you get started:
would you be kind enough to pinpoint a few specific spots in that area by 29 and 441 ?

George. Take a look at the series of ponds at the intersection of Alligator Alley and 29 in the Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park.

Really enjoy your reports and they were a big part of the planning for my upcoming trip. Going to be dragging the canoe down and camping at collier seminole for a couple days right before Christmas. Hopefully the saltwater fishing picks up some since we dont have tarpon or snook up here those are the main targets.

Thx for the kind words. Save some of your those big snook for me. Should be good.
