Ever wonder where that place went where your grandfather first took you fishing, that place the boys at work talk about all year long before their annual spring trip, the one with the comfortable rocking chairs your neighbor describes to you over the back fence? I'll let you on to a little secret... here it is.
Located in Welaka Groves, an old citrus farm on the east bank of the St. Johns River midway between the Oklawaha and barge canal, the camp was originally set up by Bob Allender in 1946. Allen Norton acquired it in 1972 and it became Norton's Place. Jim and Terry Stege purchased it in 1998. In 2023 it was purchased by Daniel and Jodi Knight and after a lot of cleaning, repairs, renovations and a good amount of TLC, it is still the Stegbone's Fish Camp you have known and loved for decades.

Today Stegbone's delivers the same type of traditional, quality, get away experience as the camp offered from it's very beginning. It is a vintage Florida fish camp - no RV's, no jet skis, no attitudes. Just great fishing, plenty of eating, beautiful sunsets, campfires, wildlife all around a whole lot of story telling!
