Lake Rousseau in West Central Florida is a man made 3,657-acre lake. Three
counties surround Lake Rousseau. Levy County and Inglis to the North. Citrus
County and Crystal River to the South. Dunnellon and Marion County bounds the
North East. The Rainbow River and Withlacooche Rivers feed Lake Rousseau with
millions of gallons of fresh oxygenated water each day. Rousseau is primarily a
Bass fishing lake because of the abundance of vegetation and natural cover. Big
Bass like this stumpy lake and so do a large variety of other fresh water species.
The old Withlacoochee River channel cuts through Lake Rousseau to the Inglis
Dam and Cross Florida Barge Canal. Fishing is good year round on Lake Rousseau
and the Withlacoochee River backwaters. Come try your luck and have some fun.
While visiting Lake Rousseau and for some strange reason you got tired of fishing,
there are a lot of other activities to enjoy that are really close. The Rainbow River
in Dunnellon Florida is great for canoeing or kayaking. Dunnellon, Inglis and
Crystal River offer restaurants, shopping, Manatee tours, diving, snorkeling,
boating and swimming. For a complete list click on the Business links section of
