Fishing Tip:
Our new fishing tip for April is from one of our professional fishing guides, Captain Ken Karroll. You can find Ken and other professional
guides at VisitHighlandsCounty.com.
Next time you are fishing your favorite shallow water spot drop down one or two sizes on the weight. With the water levels lower than
normal, less weight will give the bait a slower natural fall. Also, try longer cast when fishing clear water. While enjoying all the great lakes
we have in Highlands County, please practice catch and release, boating safety and always wear sun block to protect your skin.
