Anyone ever fish the ponds off of 95 and/or 44? I know some have signs and fences but some are wide open. I have fished a few of the heavily wooded ones but I’m not sure about the wide open ones. Mainly wondering if the police or FWC have given anyone a hard time about it. I have a fishing license and legal gear just worried about trespassing.

Does anyone know how far south I have to go to find snakeheads or cichlids?

Ft Lauderdale and south. I fish for peacocks once a year and they start at ft Lauderdale and work down to Miami. Usually peacocks and snakeheads are in a lot of the same body of waters.

I hit the pond behind my house again, this time with my younger brothers visiting from Virginia. This pond is just full of action and life right now! Only landed one today but hooked around 20. I also found out I need to replace my line. I had a huge hit and it just started rolling, it cut back suddenly and with one final roll snapped my braided line just like that, 15lb braided. Saw 2 schools of tilapia, a water snake and I think I actually hooked a tilapia. I threw a b line into one of their beds on the edge of some plants and I couldn’t see it but something grabbed it and ran directly to my right in a straight line then with a simple shake of the head underwater which is the only flash I saw it spit the hook. I have heard about some of them grabbing things out of their beds to spit it out elsewhere and being hooked that way. This didn’t fight line and bass I have felt yet.
