Sink your fishing line into one of the lakes at Caloosa or Okeeheelee Parks and you'll quickly feel the tug of a fish on your line!
Caloosa and Okeeheelee Parks provide excellent locations to introduce kids of all ages to freshwater fishing. Both lakes are part of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission's Urban Fishing Program and contain an abundance of native sunfish (bream) and hatchery-raised channel catfish. These naturally produced and stocked fish grow quickly from eating the supplemental fish food that is fed to them by automatic feeders located on each lake. The lakes are stocked with catfish every year to maintain a steady supply of fish for anglers.
