The biggest largemouth I ever caught was just a little bit north of there in Plantation, it was 11 pounds some odd ounces. Caught peacock in the same lake.

Those old age developments with lakes have some stunning fish, same if you can get in on a golf course. Don't be afraid to tote a bucket of the biggest shiners you can buy.

You'll also get into plenty of snook and juvenile tarpon in the canals. I prefer the little tarpons, you don't need to devote an afternoon to landing just one and they still jump.

Snook are king of backwater fishing to me
