PRICE & SELECTION<br />

RIGHT ON TARGET<br />

Outdoors<br />

A high quality of life enjoyed in the Greater <strong>Sebring</strong><br />

area and all of Highlands County is due, in part, to the<br />

seemingly endless opportunities for recreational activities.<br />

The mild climate invites residents and visitors to enjoy a<br />

wide variety of outdoor activities on a year-round basis.<br />

The county has numerous lakes — more than 100 in<br />

all, but 87 with names — most with access for fishing,<br />

boating, swimming, water skiing and newer trends such as<br />

tubing.<br />

Famed for its largemouth bass fishing, sprawling Lake<br />

Istokpoga is just south of the <strong>Sebring</strong> area and boasts<br />

several fish camps and numerous fishing guides. In July<br />

2018, Bassmaster Magazine released its listing of the top<br />

100 bass lakes in the U.S. and <strong>Sebring</strong>'s Lake Istokpoga<br />

was No. 7 on the list of Southeastern U.S. lakes.<br />

<strong>Sebring</strong>’s gem is Lake Jackson, which is also known for<br />

its share of big bass. City owned and maintained beaches<br />

on Lake Jackson are popular spots for family recreation.<br />

Arbuckle Creek to the north and the Kissimmee River<br />

to the east, along with 19 county parks and 44 countymaintained<br />

boat ramps, provide residents and guests with<br />

diverse opportunities to enjoy water sports. There aren’t<br />

many days that go by when you don’t see multiple boats<br />

out on Lake Jackson, usually with somebody at the end of<br />

a ski rope behind them.<br />

Besides golf, fishing may be the biggest draw to the<br />

<strong>Sebring</strong> area. Largemouth bass are the most popular<br />

target, but our lakes, ponds and creeks, as well as the<br />

Kissimmee River, which marks the eastern boundary of<br />

the county, are teeming with all kinds of fish. Crappies<br />

(locals call them specks) are the most popular panfish<br />

sought by anglers and almost each body of water has a<br />

catfish or two swimming in it.<br />
