Lake Tohopekaliga AKA "The Sleeping Tiger"

I've lived in Osceola county my entire life, (47 years ) and have fished about every lake around here. For the past 7 years I have lived right on Lake Tohopekaliga and the fishing here is by far the best in Central Florida. It remains one of the top 50 lakes to Bass fish on the world!! If it's good enough for the FLW Tour and many other tournaments, then it must be awesome! The nick name is given to this lake because one minute it can be calm the next, 3 foot white caps. ( as a storm blows in ) You dont want to be stuck on this lake during a summer thunderstorm....that's for sure!!! But if you ever are just pull into Richardsons Fish Camp on the North end....buy a soda and chat with the owner ( until the storm passes...he is super cool and full of fishing info.and secrets!!!

Absolutely full of monster bass. This lake is hardly ever fished and the water is crystal clear. Its a aquifer fed lake so its extremely healthy and full of bass, gar, catfish, bream, and crappie. It is surrounded by private property, so you need permission to come in. Call up Camp Giliead and ask for permission. If there schedule is good, they might let you launch a boat on there ramp.
