Lake Garcia is a 3,149-acre lake located along the east coast of central Florida in north Indian River County. Water depths range from 1.5 to 6 feet on this body of water, fishermen are advised to operate their crafts cautiously, due to the number of hazards found throughout the area. Facilities include a double lane concrete boat ramp, air boat launch site, paved parking lot, picnic pavilion and restroom. This impoundment is noted for good numbers of smaller largemouth bass, but does produce its share of trophy bass each year. Largemouth, bluegill and black crappie are most often targeted by fishermen
Based on recent electro fishing this impoundment should produce good numbers of largemouth bass for those anglers who like to fish a variety of habitats such as cattails, hydrilla, eel grass, and water lilies. Many locals seem to prefer this reservoir due to its scenic appearance and lack of crowds. It’s located within a half-hour drive of the neighboring Stick Marsh/Farm 13 and also offers more shelter from blowing northerly winds. The open section of the lake and the area around the submerged borrow pit are good places to start fishing for bass. Most common lures are plastic worms, top water frogs, rattle traps and flipping lures.
