New to the Gainesville Area

Hey guys, I'll be moving into my new apartment in Gainesville this weekend for school. I'm originally from Cape Coral so I'm new to the Gainesville area. I was just wondering where there are places nearby to do some off-roading. Also, I like to fish, so any info on where to do some fishing will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help

 

Off roading= Ocala and citrus (tillis hills/inverness area) fishing, ask Thomas 2010TRD he'll hook you up there. Look out for camping threads around Oct/Nov. we usually have our big campout wheeling trips round then.

 

Thanks! Are the areas around the Ocala area 2wd friendly?

 

eh for the most part. I still would never go w/o a 4wd. Tillis Hills is prob more 2wd friendly imho

 

Right lol, I'll check it out. Thanks!

 

Thanks buddy
Didn think you liked me anymore jk


There are lots of places to wet a hook around north central florida....
Most places will yield plenty of pan-fish
For the sport of Bass fishing you will have to search alittle better than just a local ditch

Right now is a good time to get into some summer bass feeding (schooling) on lakes or rivers

Pretty much any water you can see on a google map will yield Bass

Surprisingly, you will find bass in most of the retention ponds in gainesville.
Get you a small kayak and dip off into the ponds around gainesville
right now top water soft baits works best....overcast days i suggest a spinner bait (1ft below surface)

I could go on all day

let me know if youd like to get out of gainesville and wet a hook up my way. Id be more than happy to charter (free) you for a day on my lake

 

Thanks for the tips man. Once I get settled in, I'll hit you up on your offer lol

 

I really don't like anyone

 

Typical pig .. jk

 

you just made top of the list
