Lake Aurora

Anglers know Lake Aurora as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Florida, United States. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Lake Aurora is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques

• For Largemouth bass

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

• For Bluegill
