Best I can remember it is off the rim canal below Roland Martins Marina. I think it is marked on the Okeechobee map they sell there.

.... Ok thanks... I'll check the marina to see if they have the map... Some months back at Slim Fish camp he point it out on the map that he had but don't sell them... The map I have from Bass Pro is nice (fly department) but don't mention the Dynamite Hole..

We come down in April to fish for Bream/Shellcarckers and usually spend several days in the Glades Oscar fishing. That is so much fun makes you forget about any other kind.
I've only been down the last 2 years, but some of the guys are going on 36 years coming down. They pointed the "Hole' out to me when we were in the lake, but all I remember is that it was down below the Marina off the canal.

Here is a link to the map I think we were looking at. It shows the dynamite hole and I think it is at cut 92 off the canal. When I tried to zoom the map it got hard to read.

If you know the general area ya might be able to spot it on google earth. You can scroll different time stamps and find pics with no wind or sun reflection and zoom way down. I have been able to find trees and such like that. Should be able to see deep holes fairly easy.

It’s about three miles east of the Clewiston lock. It’s the first major opening on the left when you leave the lock going east. It’s a good fishing hole but gets a lot of pressure.
