I am not sure how close you are to Veterans Parkway but I know a nice big lake that you can put a boat in that has some double digit fish in them, according to a couple fishermen I was talking to when I was fishing there.

Wow, there are tons of people from Jax on here now.

hows it going team? are the fish biting again!?! i saw the other post about the "summer slump" and had a bad run myself w/ the heat. temps are dropping and starting to cool down but i havent fished in a while. let me know if u guys are having any luck. take care!

I had some luck yesterday. Nothing big but some good numbers. Things should really pick up again in October.

Went out this morning. Same as Jax, numbers but nothing of size. Landed 5 but missed just as many in an hour. Top water plastics, zoom toads and vibe worms seem the best right now early.

i've been fishing when i can maybe about 3 times a week. Other than that I have been working. Lately I have been getting great hits on 5 inch senkos (various colors). My father in law kept making fun of me till i texted him a picture of a 4 pounder i caught before church last sunday. now we are going to hit some ponds up early tomorrow morning around the bartram park area. glad to see everyone being so active.

checked out those ponds off Pritchard today. Did not get one single bite in 2 hours. Fishing an unweighted fluke and a small spinner. Where are the fish? and what are they biting? Gonna try a pond over by the law school this evening.

Whats up guys im back!!! just wanted to let everyone know that lately ive been doin good with Zoom lizards june bug colored and you cant go wrong with watermelon red either. Also since its coolin down a bit ive noticed there back to feeding on small shad in shallower areas I've caught em on shallow runnin cranks and Tsunami blue shad swim baits lately also! Best and most bites have come in the afternoon last hr before dark on the june bug lizard ! hope it helps someone land a big one! Goodluck out there guys and keep postin!!!

What Law school???? The reason i ask is Ive been to one by A law school and got kicked out....

Yeah. The only law school. (FCSL at Baymeadows and 95) I also got ran off yesterday. It's a shame. There are some lunkers in there. Can probably catch em on a bare hook.

Not too far from there is a couple nice ponds right off JTB and 95. look at it on google maps almost due north from that pond, it is on AC Skinner. It connects to a creek, it is in a business park. also there is a small one next to the surgical institute. Also fish early in the morning, no one is up and out or cares to be a dick at 6, 7 or 8 am.

nice fish.....what pond was that??

On Chaffee road right where you get off of I-10 there is a Holiday Inn, it's from the pond right beside it. It's walking distance form where I live.

ook cool thx,

Jaxbasser and I did work today at the publix distribution center off beaver we caught a dozen or so missed some lunkers ( of course ) he used bluegill lipless crankbait and i used zoom speed craws. Junebug and green pumpkin majic. Not a bad day at all.

Yeah it was a pretty good afternoon of fishing, especially for November. Really didn't expect the fish to be that active. That one that threw my crankbait was a really nice fish, probably around 5 pounds or so.

Nice work guys.

Got a couple missed a nicer one today on the blugill shad flukes. Cold this morning, 50 is too F-ng cold for me, I think I need to move further south. LOL nothing on popper or weightless trick worm. when I worked the fluke fast was what they seemed to like....slow was a no go.

just came from the big lake at the park on baymeadows got 3 1 about 4 o 5# other about 2#...anyone down for some fishing today

Hello all. I am a bass fisher and I primarily fishout of my bass boat but I want to find some local ponds because boat fishing is not always time feasable. I live off of Gate and Belfort and have seen you guys posting about ponds over here. I drove down AC Skinner from Belfort today scouting and noticed that big pond on the right and a few smaller ponds on the left. Are those good? Also are there any more good ones over in my area. I havent tried the one behind West Marine or Black Creek but I have seen you guys talk about it. Anyone wanting to get up I am down. Thanks for the advice. Looks like I found a great forum here with some good people. I am gonna try it early in the morning. What about the ponds off JTB where 95 is behind the Applebees and all where all those businesses are. And down Gate heading towards the town center. I see ponds everywhere.

I've fished a few ponds over in that area and caught some fish, especially in the ones where Kernan runs into Butler. There are also some good spots around/in the UNF area as well.

It's a pretty good ways from where I'm at though so I don't fish there often.
