Anyone ever fish there? I have the chance this coming week, and everything I have read talks about the big bass down there.

I catch nice ones from my dock on Lake Butler all the time. Always get bites on pearl white flukes. Super clear water and lots of big bass.

I haven't but I follow Chuck Pippen on Youtube. He's a bass guide and fishes Lake Toho and the Butler Chain a lot. Check him out. You may be able to pick up some tips.

Chuck is a great guy and has a great reputation in our area. Butler Chain is great place to fish at times.

Take advantage and go have fun

I have an acquaintance who is a guide on those lakes.

I live near them but, I’ll confess that I’ve never fished them. They are difficult to access due to very limited parking at their ramps. The rich bastards who own homes have fought hard to make it next to impossible for the average fisherman to have access.

I usually fish the Harris Cain which is located in Lake County.

I just got back from Florida on Saturday, and we had a great time. Fished for 6 hours with a guide named Paul, can't remember his last name. He guides out there and fishes in an old Ranger CC Bay Boat.

We caught about 30-35 for the day, tons in the 1-3 lb range. It was a great time.

We didn't land any trophies, but our guide showed us some pictures of a 10 and 11 pounder that had been caught out of there earlier this year. Hate we didn't hook one of those.
