I live 15mins from the park, I take my pontoon boat out there to ride around to relax and there is never fish there since they drained it (for repairs) and filled it back again years ago. Most of the gators were removed when it got drained too but there is still a good amount of those left. Cat fish is about what is in there. I have not camped there in years tho. When we were kids its was fun and cheap bc it was close to home.
I love your channel. I first saw your video on the Runaway Homecoming Rally as I have been looking to purchase a Runaway (placed my order for a Venturist which will be delivered in September). Then I got hooked on your videos because they actually make me laugh out loud. Keep up the great content.
Oh wow you guys were on my neck of the woods forced hand I see.. I've never camped out there but ran two summer camp out there and know all the fishing holes. Joel there's fish in that Lake I used to teach kids how to catch them and I don't want to embarrass you. You should have tried the big trail bridge near the campground. I've caught plenty of sunfish and lots of stripers there. It's a shame that the campground has turned like that I recently took my son driving through there and noticed the same when we went through there. I've donated a lot of time and effort out there in fact we built many of the fire pits in the campground as a scout unit.
Nice vid. What does anyone expect the county or state to do? A person has $ to pay they can stay. Cant reject a person over being poor. There is a 30 day limit.
My wife and I have stayed there twice and once at Lithia Springs and we have had the same experience with other campers. I to have mixed feelings as I feel bad that some people have the misfortune of the only place they can afford to live but at the same time I would like to relax and enjoy my camping. We will just use the place as a day visit as the hiking trails have some awesome views.
They are Lasko Utility Fans. We love them and wouldn't be able to camp in the Florida heat without them. Here is a link to them on Amazon... amzn.to/3E21Nh3
Thanks for sharing your honesty experience , with this place .
God bless you both of you 🙏
Thanks! It's a beautiful park but I'd only recommend for a day trip.
Too bad for the sketchy characters because the park looked gorgeous. Thanks for bringing us along, fair winds.
It was definitely a beautiful and unique park for a day trip.
Y’all are so fun to watch! And we agree - walk up reservations are the worst! 👎🏻
Love your channel, My wife and I are on lake tarpon
Thanks for watching! We live in Pinellas county as well.
Come to IL in June for the Midwest ROCx
We’d love to but that’s prob too far for us. We have TN rally as tentative though!

Interesting! Thanks for the back story. We were there about 6 years ago and there were a ton of huge gators.
Beautiful park! Hope things get better there. Can o ask what Drone you use?
Love your channel 💚
Thanks! Our drone is a DJI Mavic Mini. Now they have a Mavic Mini 2.

Thanks! Have fun with your Venturist. Waiting for it to be built is the hardest!

Let’s not brake a leg geee
Gators , Snakes , Bears are ok but a homeless guy scares u. Wow. Nice video tho. Thought the park looked amazing.
Economy in Tampa supposed to be booming? Would not expect homeless problems.
Many of the homeless have difficulty to function in society.
