I didn't see any boats or anyone fishing, it was pretty deserted actually. I was fine with that, as it gave me a chance to enjoy the quiet and take some photos. I also didn't see any snakes or gators, although I was intentionally on the lookout for them.
In addition to water skiing and boating, Lake Eloise is a fantastic place to fish. The lake is full of bluegill, crappie, and largemouth bass. Access to the lake is by canal only, but there are several boat ramps nearby including some on Lake Summit and Lake Roy. With 1,178 acres of water, there is room for fishing, boating and all kinds of water sports.
