Has anyone fished Crescent Lake near Crescent City Fl?
Going there in a couple weeks and want to know if anyone has had any luck there.
Thanks,

went there one time in the 90's with
the family. We rented a pontoon boat
and an overnight cabin.
took the boat out lookin for specs
but did'nt do that well and the kids
got bored so we headed in for lunch.
After lunch I layed down for a nap
and left the kids playing on the dock
catching tiny Ladyfish on cane poles
and having a hoot.
Walked back down to the dock
and my 8 year old son was sitting
on the end bottom fishing with worms.
As I aproached I asked if he'd caught
anything and he reached down for his
stringer. Bless his heart there on that
stringer were a half dozen of the biggest
Shellcrackers I had ever seen anywhere!
We finished up the day with about
30 big ole fat Shellcrakers to salvage
our trip.
Always intended on goin back, but
life happened and that was that.
He's 35 now and quite the fisherman.
Every now and then when were all
sitting around someone brings up that
trip.
Looking back it was one our funnest
family outings over the years.
And I never rented another dam pontoon
boat again. lol
