Dixie Lake


April 27, 2024

Dixie Lake Fishing Area is located in an unspoiled wilderness area in the Ocala National Forest in Florida. The lake is primarily known for its large-mouth bass and crappie, but catfish and sunfish can be caught as well. Nearby activities include hiking, camping, and birdwatching. Anglers should focus on fishing weed beds and drop-offs for the best catch. The best time of year to visit is from late fall to early spring, when the water is cooler and fish are more active. Average temperatures during this time range from the mid-50s to low 70s°F.
