Lake Weohyakapka

Tucked into Florida, United States, Lake Weohyakapka is a lake that fishes differently season to season. Spring brings fish into the shallows to spawn or feed on early baitfish; midsummer pushes them to cooler, deeper water; autumn turns them aggressive again as they pack on weight before winter. Anglers planning a trip to Lake Weohyakapka should check water temperature and recent weather — a sudden cold front can shut a lake like this down for a day.

• For Channel catfish

  Fish near structure like submerged trees or rocks, as channel catfish often use these areas for ambush points and shelter.
