Lake Kissimmee


April 27, 2024

Lake Kissimmee is a popular fishing destination in Florida, known for its abundance of largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. Apart from fishing, visitors can enjoy other activities such as hiking, camping, bird-watching, and kayaking. Anglers can increase their chances of catching fish by targeting areas with vegetation and using live bait. The best time to visit is during the winter months from December to February when the average temperature is around 70°F. During this time, the fish are more active and easier to catch.
