Lake
Notes: Specializing in Largemouth Bass, Black
Crappie, Bluegill and Shellcracker.
Fishing along the bulrush and in coves with maidencane
and lily pads usually will produce good catches of
bass. Live shiners in the winter and topwater lures or
crankbaits in the summer months are good bets for
catching bass. Worms should be rigged weedless because
hydrilla can be found throughout the lake. Lake
Poinsett also produces good catches of specks in late
fall and winter. They are usually picked up by
trolling in open water, especially in the northern
half of the lake. Panfish can be caught along the
shoreline with crickets and beetle spins in spring and
summer. Sunshine bass may be found in deeper water of
the river where it enters or leaves the lake.
Connects to Lake Winder. Part of the St. Johns
River chain of lakes.
