Where to fish along I-75 South

September 23, 2009 12:11 PM

Good to outstanding fishing locations along I-75 in October. A new dimension to a routine road trip.

In mid to late October Nemo ( the wonder dog) and I will be driving from Toledo Ohio to West Palm Fl. to meet my wife as she returns from the Bahamas. I would like to do some fishing on the way south. I generally take I-75 from Toledo Oh. If you are aware of any particularly good fishing spots/locations/areas 50-70 miles on either side of I-75 between Cincinnati Oh. and Orlando Fl. please let me know. I am open to locations further from I-75 if there is a specific recommendation. If you have a recommendation for a specific camp/resort/guide that would be nice. I do not have a fixed schedule and can easily take 10 +/- days for the trip. I will be using light spinning gear. Thanks

In Georgia, you'll cross Lake Allatoona an hour or so north of Atlanta. The Chattahoochee river is hit or miss, depending on where you are relative to town. Way further south, I know 75 crosses Lake Pakasoffkee in north Central FL. This sounds like a helluva lot of fun - good luck!
