Fall Lake Toho Fishing Report

Capt. Jamie Jackson
October 5, 2024
Lake Tohopekaliga - Freshwater Fishing Report

The bass fishing on Orlando's Lake Toho this fall remains excellent. While the lake is filling up with hydrilla and peppergrass, the remaining areas are loaded with bass. Once you get in one of the areas that are still fishable 20-30 fish days are still the average on our charters. And if you're looking for a big one, this is a great time. As temps begin to cool down we're getting 7+ pound bass more and more frequently.

Finding large holes in the grass is the key. There's a lot of hydrilla and peppergrass on the lake, more than I've ever seen. It's at least at 70% coverage right now. While the state does have plans to spray and kill off parts of it in the near future, there's still open areas right now that are leading to some productive fishing days.

Once you find one of these open areas, a whole range of lures can be used to catch them and it just depends on the weather that day what will work the best. Early topwater has been working, with jerkbaits and rattletraps working if they're schooling in the open. Around the thicker hydrilla, speedworms, spinnerbaits, and chatterbaits have been productive. And of course if all else fails, flukes have been working throughout all the areas and conditions. But the best bet of all for getting both the big ones and the most numbers has been on large golden wild shiners.

Even with all the grass on the lake right now, it's still producing like it always has and it's been a lot of fun. If you're in Orlando and looking to do some fishing, there's not a better time to be fishing lake Toho than right now while they're stacked up like they are.
