About this water
The tailrace below Jim Woodruff Dam on the Apalachicola River is one of Florida's premier striped bass fisheries, with fish regularly exceeding 20 pounds caught in the swift, oxygenated water below the dam. This is a well-documented hotspot featured in numerous Florida fishing guides and FWC resources. Shoal bass, a species endemic to the Apalachicola drainage, are also found in the rocky shoals downstream.
