Hello there,
I am new to the Florida Outdoor Forums and am excited to be part of this community. I am reaching out to get some advice on fishing in Florida.
I recently moved to the area and am eager to explore the best fishing spots around. I am interested in both freshwater and saltwater fishing; and I would love to hear your recommendations for where to go. Are there any specific lakes; rivers; or coastal areas that you would suggest? I have heard that certain times of the year are better for different types of fishing; so any insights on that would be greatly appreciated too.
Additionally, if there are any local tips or techniques that have worked well for you; I would love to hear them. I’m keen to learn more about the local fish species and any bait or tackle that might be particularly effective in the Florida waters
Lastly; if there are any regulations or permits I should be aware of; please let me know. I want to make sure I’m fishing responsibly and in compliance with local laws.
Thank you in advance for your help and assistance.

Welcome to the forum. You pretty much asked for the full Monty of fishing tips. Best I can tell you, if you’re a real person, is to visit the FWC website and read. There’s obviously plenty of fresh, salt and brackish waters to visit. Be sure to purchase a license and read all the regs. There are seasons, slot limits, and closed areas you will have to fathom. Remember it’s called fishing and not catching.

Bass Pro shop in Orlando is covered in slob bass and reds. Night fishing is a must.

You are asking for a lot of information. It takes years becoming experienced in all the types of fishing that you are inquiring about. Unless you already own a boat, it would be wise for you to hire a guide or find some seasoned anglers who are willing to teach you what they have put in the time to learn. With the amount of people moving to Florida, and the increased fishing pressure, it still might be the sport fishing capital of the world, but you will still have quite a learning curve to become successful.
