Might head down before Christmas, possibly after. Worth it to get a guide for a half day or not worry about fishing and just deal with the women and children? I've fished Toho once in February with little success. Is December any different?

check with the guys at Toho marina. this time of year the guides are starting to get booked.good luck when you get here.

This guy is good. Give him a call.

Toho can get tough in the winter due to its shallow nature. If you go, you'll want someone that really knows the lake. Toho hasn't been sprayed since spring, and recently spraying is being conducted. West lake Toho is also about 2 feet higher than normal as a draw down of East lake Toho is being conducted. It has changed fishing there. 

 

If you are open to fishing other central Florida lakes, Butler and Conway can provide some great winter opportunities for schoolie fishing which are good alternatives should conditions at Toho be off. 

 

 

If all else fails with finding a guide check out the Disney guides.

 

They use live bait and you will catch a bunch of bass up to four-pounds each.

I'm not set on Toho and already got recommendations for a guide on Butler.
