Orange County has more than 700 great bass fishing lakes in both urban and rural settings. The Windermere Chain (or Butler Chain) is located west of Orlando. Johns Lake is at the Orange and Lake county line and provides wonderful fishing. The Winter Park Chain in Winter Park and Maitland is renowned for its sightseeing opportunities. Anglers using this chain can enjoy good fishing and enjoy the same sights as tourists. Several downtown lakes are large enough to accommodate boating and have public boat ramps. Clear Lake provides fishing opportunities for bass, bream and catfish. Lake Ivanhoe fishing can be surprisingly good for an urban lake. Lake Underhill is on the eastern side of Orlando and is divided by the East-West Expressway. This is a good lake to fish for crappie in the winter and bass in the spring. A healthy catfish population offers additional fishing opportunities.
