Water and conditions
Our water temperature readings average 79°F; they do not cover the whole year, so this is not a yearly average. pH averages 7.3. These readings span 2019. The latest reading is from 2019, more than three years ago: read these numbers as history, not as the water today.
What is hard here
Only 1 public ramp is on file, so the launch decides where you fish. Alligators live in Florida fresh water. Keep clear of the bank edge at dawn and dusk, and keep pets away from it.
