Fishing In Orlando: Fresh or Salt Water Fishing
Beautiful Central Florida is the prime place to experience big bass fishing in Orlando.
At the Lakefront in Kissimmee Florida, you can certainly catch large amounts of award winning size bass. The Lakefront is located in historic Downtown Kissimmee off Monument Avenue and is apart of the Kissimmee chain of Lakes. At the Lakefront Kissimmee you may also catch bluegill and shellcracker. Most anglers targeting trophy bass live golden shiners during early spring. Shiners are fished inshore near native vegetation or topped-out hydrilla. Plastic baits (worms, crawfish and lizards) flipped along grass edges, hydrilla, and bulrush will also catch quality sized bass. Spinnerbaits, soft jerkbaits and chugging baits can also be very productive at times. Fly fishermen have good success wade fishing along the miles of the shoreline on Lake Kissimmee. Ask your tourguide which bait is preferred depending on what we will be fishing for. Lake Kissimmee is also rich in wildlife. You may find bald eagles, white tailed deer, bobcats and turkeys.
If you are interested in deep sea fishing, you may do so with a tour guide or you can simply charter your boat at Cape Canaveral, Daytona or New Smyrna Beach. There are several different deep sea fishing guides that offers ½ to full day fishing. (Look below for great contact) These charter boats come with everything you need, from fishing poles to bait, some even offer drinks and food on the boat, but most of them you are allowed to bring your own cooler. You can certainly charter your own boat if you wish. However, if you are on vacation in Orlando you can purchase these guides which provide the fishing poles, bait, cold beverages, fishing license and much more. All tour captains and charter boats offers this service to you at a fee.

Resident anglers who fish for saltwater species from shore to shore or a structure affixed to shore must have a shoreline fishing license or a regular saltwater license. If you plan to fish on land to a lake, you may want to purchase such a license as well. If you go on a charter or tour, the guide and/or captain has a license and you are covered under his/her license while on the boat.
