does anyone know where in tampa , fl i can go fishing on a lake,, its ridiculous every **** lake is private,, share the wealth people, geez,,, i found a place that has a boat ramp, parking for a your car and trailer, its kinda like a picnic area, with a long dock, with picnic tables on the dock, lil mini showers , white sand on the side where ladies are getting there sun tan,,, but theres a HUGE SIGN that says if you do not have a bla bla Decal on your trailor or boat you will be ARRESTED AND CHARGE FOR TRESPASSING!! ****!!!! WHERE CAN A FATHER AND SON GO FISHING THESE DAYS????
:x :( :cry:
 
Its ashame we are on the way out of florida, shinerman and I would of hooked up with ya and shared a few of our spots with ya. Here is 2 of the better spots we found during our 3 year stay: lake tarpon https://www.laketarpon.org/ and there is also a small boyscout park called lake roger https://www.tbt.com/features/guide/article12849.ece where shinerman caught a 9.5 pound bass from the shore to win the labor day tourney.

crap.. i cant find it anymore,, where is lake roger, i seen it but i dont rememeber wher eit is
i seen it on google maps,, is there a way to get on the lake,, nother words is there a boat ramp that is not on private property,, lol i dont want to get arrested or shot by a 12 gauge,,,lol :mrgreen:
 
Hey man, me and bassaddict fish together lake roger is on north mobley rd off of gunn hwy. There is anouther lake down in brandon accross the skyway called lake manatee. there is a smal park in oldsmar off of lafayett rd. but other than that most of the ponds around here are private. At lake tarpon you have to buy a decal for the truck but the machine o get it is right next to the boat ramp. Hope this helps

Heres the link for lake rogers, there isnt a ramp, you need to drag the boat down a trail and they will only allow electric motors. If your looking for a lake with a ramp check out lake tarpon

is it cool to leave my boat trailer in the parking lot, i was there last sunday, and i saw theres few parking spots, what i can do is take trailer of hitch and take another parking spot ,hopefully park ranger wont be upset at me!

been to the lake a few times now, great spot,, but still afraid to bring the boat out,, i asked some guy there who he was fishing on the side,, if we can bring out small jon boats out, he said naw,, i dont think boats are allowed,, even if u just drag it also,, grrrr,, idk,, all that hard work to bring the boat out , just so the park ranger to tell you "hey get out"" ,,lol

have u had any probs???
 
This is shinerman.
If you are at lake frank or lake roger(I always forget the name) you can have a jon boat in there. But it is trolling motor only. If you are still unsure the park rangers number is at the info board in the parking lot and on the water cooler half way down the trail. When you look at the lake the right side is deeper than the left and there is a sand bar in the middle that is about six inches deep. and if you go to the back of the lake there is a cove that is almost land locked but you can pull the boat through the small opening and there is some good fishing back there. It is about 10 foot deep. if we are talking about the same lake pm me and I will tell you about some other holes at that lake. Hope this helps

thanks man,, yeah i hope we are talking about the same lake,, n.mobley and gunn hwy.. ,, great fishing spot,, hardly nobody is there, i been so far every sat and sun past 2 weeks and hardly no one is there,, but i dnt see any boats,, so it makes me think maybe possibly boats arent allowed i see canoe signs on the trails,, etc , but yeah if u say so man,, ill take your word for it, and ill bring my boat with a boat dolly to drag my jon boat,, cool man, thanks,, ive walked pretty much the whole left side of the lake i even went down the middle on foot (in water). thats was the spot i got the 8lber.. but yeah man,, ill take the boat out,, thanks again..
 
Why don't you fish the flats outta TarponSprings? All that areas infamous for big fish. That's where I'd be if I was your way... The Gulf holds some fish... I live in Brandon which is just outside of Tampa, so I fish Apollo Beach, Ruskin, Gibsonton, stuff like that... TampaBay. Which is alot dirtier in water clearity due to the Brakish waters... Your spinnin' your wheels in that fresh water; my friend... I mean, to each their own, but once you hook a snookie or two, you'll feel what I'm screamin'... 8)
