I just ran across some interesting facts on these 2 lakes...Think about it...Sure you want a Rematch???



Lake Monroe (near Sanford)The FWC’s habitat-restoration wizards have been tuning up this 9,400-acre sweetie-pie since the late 1980′s, and they’ve got her really purring. Since the Commission lifted the 12-inch minimum length limit in July 2005, anglers have flocked back to Monroe and put up impressive catch rates. Big crappie go for small jigs, Bream Killers, Hal-Flies or Beetlespins. Missouri minnows and grass shrimp also work.



Lake Talquin (west of Tallahassee) Think about it. This 8,800-acre reservoir is just outside Tallahassee. It’s where the FWC’s top brass goes fishing, so you know they’re going to make sure this baby doll gets all the attention it can use. Is it any surprise the state record 3-pound, 13 -ounce black crappie was pulled out of Lake Talquin? This lake has lots of submerged stumps and snags, so you don’t want to go hot-rodding around it in a boat. But, if you want to catch some nice crappie, and you’re willing to abide by the 10-inch minimum size limit, you’ll love it here.


Just saying
