Lake Dicie Fishing in Lake County, Florida

• Overview

  Lake Dicie is one of the Lake County listings for Florida. Elevation runs to 89 feet. Small at around 8 acres: two anglers spread out cover most of it. On size it sits at the modest end of our Lake County list. Eustis is the closest place, 1.5 miles off. After that come Mount Dora at 3 miles and Tavares at 3.3 miles. The county line runs close by, so rules can change within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Lake Dicie

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Records collected within a few miles name bluegill, threadfin shad, dollar sunfish and largemouth bass. Records come from public data, not from a stocking programme. Lake Dicie gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 82°F at the top of summer and 58°F at the bottom of winter. Cold never becomes a factor on this one. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. Plan around that when you fish Lake Dicie.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. Recorded parking is half a mile off, far enough to travel light. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. West Crooked Lake sits 0.4 miles off and takes the overflow. Nothing on Lake Dicie should be assumed from this page alone.
