    vacationing in Fort Myers beach area looking for Largemouth ponds ?

    Going to Florida on vacation in Fort Myers beach area. Looking to catch a 6-10lb. largemouth.
    Does anybody know of some ponds I could walk and fish.
    It would be cool to catch a hawg while there. I am going to buy a license for only 3 days.

    Not sure about what's REAL close to beach area, but I'd head over toward Lehigh Acres area. TONS of canals and ponds over there that used to hold some big bass. Haven't fished there for some time, so hopefully a BBCer from that area will help you out. Just be sure you don't trespass on peoples property! Good luck!

    PS....It's Florida.. watch out for snakes and gators...

    I’ll be down there the last week of June. Was hoping to get a chance at some snook or tarpon. (Live close to guntersville so catch our fair share of big bass)

    Golf course ponds offer your best shot, until they ask you to leave.
