• Where to Fish on Lake Mary

  Depth figures are not published for this one. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Reported across Marion County: bluegill, largemouth bass, largescale sucker, rainbow trout and cutthroat trout. Records at this level tell you what is in the area.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. The nearest alternative is Lake Marie, 0.2 miles out. For Lake Mary in particular, ask before you travel.
