    ... and had some really nice sized fish in it.

    Now, with this part of Florida still in drought conditions, it looks like this ...

    Sad to see the lake so depleted.

    Some parts of Florida are good. Having at or near regular rain totals.
    In this part, however, we are still more than 10 feet below normal.

    Wow. Figure the gators would be bunched up there.

    Yeah, they're around. But I've been wading ponds since I got here in '92. Never had a 'gator bother me. I've had them follow a top water lure to within 6 or 7 feet of me, but they always take off when they see me there.

    I waded and float tubed Sheldon Reservoir (loved that place) for a couple of years. Saw some there, also, none ever bothered me.

    Alligators are not known for taking large prey, unlike Crocodiles, so they generally stay away from people.

    It's that one that is a little near sighted and can't tell if i'm a small calf or deer. I'll pass and stay in da boat.
    When is the best time to go fishing? Whenever you can go. Just do it!
