Great lake with big fish. The limited areas accessible to fish and dealing with the numerous homeless can be challenging. However, when you ARE able to peacefully fish; you're gonna catch some decently large fish. Which makes up for any other issues for me... FYI - The lake has a large gator population. The largest I've seen was at least 14ft. Be aware of your surroundings.

You can catch anything in this creek from catfish, stripe bass, all the way to flounder, and even puffer fish. Our store is located right on town Creek and we fish these waters often. Wonderful place if you want variety, good scenery, and great fishing. You can access it from The Gator Hole Country Store And Tackle the store my husband and I own.
