FISH FLORIDA OVERVIEW
Florida: The Fishing Capital of the World
Welcome to Fish Florida, The REEL Florida Experience. This newly designed resource will highlight key regions within the Sunshine State, identify great fishing destinations and provide you with everything you need for the REEL Florida Experience.
From Pensacola to Naples, from Fernandina to Key West, and St. Petersburg/Clearwater to Daytona, Florida is comprised of more than 7,700 lakes, contains 10,550 miles of rivers and 2,276 miles of tidal shoreline. Florida’s freshwater fisheries comprise 3 million acres of lakes, ponds and reservoirs, and 10,550 miles of rivers, streams and canals. With more than 700 world-record fish catches and Florida’s documentation as the country’s number one recreational fishing destination, Florida Sports Foundation and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) are spreading the word that The Sunshine State is the best place to fish and invite you to join in the effort to take advantage of this huge market.
Recreational fishing has been found to be the number one gateway activity connecting youth of all ages to the great outdoors partially because it is available to everyone and is a low-cost wholesome form of recreation. Florida is the “Fishing Capital of the World” because of great resources and responsible management. We encourage you to enjoy recreational fishing with your family and friends as a great way to reconnect with nature, relax and lead a happier, healthier and more active lifestyle. FishFlorida.com is updated regularly and is the place to go for specific questions on licensing, limits and legalities as it relates to both freshwater and saltwater fishing.
