I'm going to Be fishing Toho in a few weeks and wanted to stop somewhere to collect some Pickerel on my final day in Florida. One would think that shouldn't be an issue in a swamp filled with redfin. At the same time I've never been there and with such a huge area might not be the best place to go with only a half day to search. I thought I would kayak in and try and catch some redfin born last year on a small rod and reel set up. Or Would I be better off stopping in some areas around Charleston or Savannah? I Have 14ft jon boat with outboard and trolling motor as well as kayak. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it. Thanks
Anyone familiar with the Okefenokee Swamp? or other GA SC swamps

I dont remember the exact location, but near Waycross, GA you can google map search for 12 Mile Post Road...
and read this thread here on the forum... I know we caught redfin at a spot that I thought was on the 12 Mile Post Road?

I was reading the post you sent me. where on the map were you when referred to renting a boat? I thought you could only use trolling motors inside the park.

it was at Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, East entrance, Chesser & Grand Prairies and those boats came with small moters (bigger than trolling, but less than 10 hp... might be different now.
