REALITY: "MONEY TALKS & BULLS**T WALKS???"
Bass Pro Shops, Johnny Morris, southern Putnam County, Florida, and the Bass Capital of the World!
Johnny Morris, the founder of Bass Pro Shops, has acquired over 5,200 acres of land in southern Putnam County, Florida, specifically in the Welaka and Satsuma areas. This massive acquisition, which began in 2021, has sparked intense speculation about the development of a major wilderness resort similar to his Big Cedar Lodge in the Ozarks.
Here are the key details regarding the Johnny Morris projects in Welaka, FL:
Massive Land Acquisition: The land acquired spans from the St. Johns River by Welaka eastward to Highway 17, covering an area larger than all four Disney World theme parks combined (950 acres), totaling over 5,200 acres.
Existing Presence: Johnny Morris has operated a private fishing lodge in the Welaka area for decades.
"Sprucing Up" the Area: The project involves the acquisition of the former Acosta Creek Marina and other properties, with plans to "spruce up" the marina, according to 2022 statements.
Future Development Plans: While specific development plans remain vague, local officials (including Welaka Mayor Jamie Watts) have hinted at a massive resort, with speculation revolving around a "fishing theme park" or high-end nature resort that would capitalize on the region's reputation as the "Bass Capitol of the World".
Impact on Infrastructure: The town of Welaka is undergoing major wastewater treatment upgrades, partly to prepare for the development.
Note on Location: While this development is happening in Welaka, the nearest major branded retail Bass Pro Shops store is located in St. Augustine, FL.Quite, private, secluded, peaceful, old Florida feeling
