Public Fishing In Inverness/Citrus County, FL | |
A Stranded Nighttime Fisherman wrote to us:
We moved to Citrus County, Inverness, two years ago and during the daytime I can find great places to fish everywhere. My problem is, I work nights; 12-hour shifts. When I get a "day" off, I have to keep to my "night owl" schedule or I can not function. In South Florida, I could easily satisfy my fishing needs; but, here... I'm lost for getting my needed "fishing fix". I am sure that there are many, many other people who love to fish that are in my same situation.
Is there ANY night access fresh water and/or saltwater areas in our county where we can:
- saltwater shore, pier, or bridge fish
- launch a boat to fish the Gulf... or
- fish freshwater???
Please help...
I could not find any places where night fishing is specifically allowed, but I am sure that with Citrus County being on the Gulf, there are plenty. I did a little research and found out this:

As I said, I do not live down in Citrus County and never fished there, so I have started a message board discussion HERE to let anglers from that neck of the woods chime in if they know the local area better than I. |
