Hi Guys.  I had visited for Leesburg bike fest and a group from Florida lead us on a ride and we stopped at a place on a river for lunch.  I think they had tables inside and outside.  I can't remember the name and was hoping someone could help remember.  If not maybe someone could recommend a good seasfood place near Crystal River.

Thanks
The Bull

How far from Leesburg was it? There is also 3 Bananas in Crescent City.

I'm not much for seafood, fried shrimp is about it for me. My riding buddy liked Peck's Old Port Cove on Ozello Trail (494) off US 19 between Crystal River and Homosassa Springs.

There is also Back Water Fins on the same road.

If you guys go, Don't go off the road! It's pretty swampy!!

There is also The Blue Gator, and Swampy's, in Dunnellon, but I am betting on Stumpknockers, on the Withlacoochee River at SR 200.

Thank you for everyone that replied.  I had contacted Jerry and he told me that it was River ratz but they closed.  We had gone to JD Boondocks many times so we went back to that place.

Personally speaking, we didn't lose much when River Rats closed. That place never impressed me, and I ain't really fussy.

Funny, we had gone there many times and liked it and the surroundings. Maybe I ordered the, you can't mess up stuff, food.   No matter it was a good location someone should have taken it over.
