Anglers looking at Alachua County will find Lake Mize, a lake; I would give one easy-to-read starting zone a fair chance and resist moving until I see a pattern develop in the opening stretch. A first trip should leave me with something specific, so I would stay around one manageable starting zone until I get a useful answer from the first area.

Lake Mize Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Published figures put Lake Mize at about 2 surface acres, so I would use those numbers to decide how much ground to cover while I fish one nearby starting zone until I get a useful answer from the first adjustment.

Fishing This Water

A reliable fish list for Lake Mize is difficult to confirm, so I would carry a simple freshwater kit with worms, small jigs, and one moving bait, fish one short area near the launch, and leave the target open until I get a useful answer from the first hour. I would keep the tackle narrow on Lake Mize, fish one sheltered area near the launch, and avoid changing everything until I get a useful clue from the first setup.

A Practical Lake Mize Game Plan

My first plan for Lake Mize would be to fish one straightforward piece of water deliberately and change location before rebuilding the tackle plan only after I get a useful clue from the opening stretch. When I see enough in the first area, I would stay around one promising piece of water on Lake Mize and build the rest of the trip around that pattern. If I see enough in the first adjustment, I would count that as a successful first visit and come back to Lake Mize with one easy-to-read section of bank already on the short list.
