Angler's Resort has been known to generations as a bass fishing resort, and as it celebrates its 50th birthday, it is taking on new life. Under new ownership, many improvements have been made to the motel, bait & tackle shop, and the selection of rental boats. Angler's Resort is on the banks of the Withlacoochee River, approximately 3/4 mile from where it is joined by the Rainbow River in Dunnellon, Florida. Dunnellon has long referred to itself as "the bass capital of the world". Fishermen continuously pull trophy-size, lunker bass from the dark waters of the Withlacoochee and the clear waters of the Rainbow Rivers. Angler's Resort ~ Where the fishing is always great!
