• Where to Fish on Hubbard Lakes

  Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. Fish reported in the area, according to open records, include Florida largemouth bass. Use it to know what is possible here, not what is certain. Read Hubbard Lakes before you fish it and the day goes better.

A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Failing this one, try Hubbard Lake Number 4, 0.2 miles away.
