Freshwater Fishing
‍
There are numerous opportunities for members to enjoy freshwater fishing while staying at the Gilchrist Club. Whether you’re fishing on your own or you request one of our experienced guides to take you out on the water, the chance of catching a full limit is always good. From monster specks and bluegill, to a fat old catfish or trophy bass, you just never know what might be on the other end of the line.

With five major fishing lakes on the property, as well as the historic Suwannee and Sante Fe Rivers just down the road from the club, there are many options to choose from! To book your fishing trip contact member services and they will arrange everything for you!

This is almost a year-round fishery starting in early spring and running well into the winter.

Inland & Coastal Salt Water Fishing
‍
Way down upon the Suwanee River, literally at the mouth of the Suwannee River members of the Gilchrist Club will experience one of the bountiful fisheries on the Gulf Coast of Florida. This area is well known for its phenomenal catches of speckled trout, flounder, and the ever-prized redfish. Large schools of tarpon, cobia, and pompano go in search of the mullet and herring that fill the waters during the warmer summer months. The nearby Gulf of Mexico is fishing and scalloping heaven. We can organize a day trip during scalloping season so you can experience a true southern tradition.
