Thread: Any one ever fish........???

I'd say that distance is about right. No fee for the locks that I am aware of..never was before the rebuild of the river. There was a bait shop in Lorida bit it closed down a few weeks ago...You can get bait at that bar on the right as you go up 98. There is a trailer park behind it and some docks. It's on one of the canals going into Istapoga. The Marathon station at the south end of sebring sells bait too ...Most often get mine there. It's just a few miles from 98.. The gas station at lorida might sell worms but don't believe they have minnows. If the locks happen to be open..you might never even need to launch the boat. If they aren't open...all you'll find are gars...and a friendly little raccoon that hides in the rocks*l*
