Capt Brett Isackson Is the Best!! Amazing trip!!!Capt Brett Isackson is not only a professional in his field, he is truly a professional with his customers. Catching Peacock bass was a bucket list of mine. My wife and I were fortunate to have Brett take us out on the everglades.
He put us onto a load of fish. He also helped my wife tremendously as she never fished before. He taught her so well and with politeness and patience. We had such a great experience that day that we decided to go out two days later with him and he made himself available for us!. What a great guy. It was some of the best fishing ever! Both days!

A good experience My cousin and I had planned this fishing trip for about 15 years. While we would have liked to have landed more fish, we understand that we have no control over wind speeds and fish dispositions. We fished 2 days, once with Brett Issacson in the glades and once with Bob Miley in the Falls canals. Both these fellas are top-notch—-friendly, knowledgeable. Very accommodating. Would love to fish wifh either captains a yrime

Captain Brett, our guide, was the best. Brett was professional, courteous, informative, and, most importantly, took us to the peacock bass. All arrangements and communication were handled flawlessly. Everything went as planned. Brett was patient and helpful but also focused on our fishing success. Overall a very enjoyable experience on Lake Ida and the surrounding canals. I highly recommend it. 

Awesome time with Captain Mark and Brett Took a short trip to Fort Lauderdale to do some fishing . Spent a great great day on the water with captain Mark Shepard. Not only did I catch my personal best but between me my wife and Captain Mark we solved all world problems lol.Then Kim and I spend a day In The Everglades with Captain Brett Isackson. The weather was not in our favor that day but we still caught fish. Captain Brett did everything he could to get on on the bite. But bad weather is something even he can’t control.
Looking forward to fishing with both captain again. Thanks guys

Great father/son trip Great South Florida fishing trip with Captain Brett Isackson. He put us on the fish and kept us there for two days straight. We had a wonderful time. If you've never caught peacock bass, there's nothing like it. Book a trip - you won't regret it! 
Same guide year 2 We specifically requested Brett I. because we enjoyed him last year. We were staying in W. Palm Beach and hoped to fish Okeecobee Lake but evidently fish were not cooperating so we drove down to fish in the Glades. It was a pretty long drive but Brett sure put us on the fish! We appreciate the military discount! We will be back 


First trip in the Everglades Brett was a great guide. Nice Sterling w/a Suzuki 250. Caught some largemouth, peacock and a bunch of hard fighting cichlids in 5 hours. Perfect weather, lots of birds and a few Gators as scenery. Looking to book a trip next April on Okeechobee. 
great service reibale and knowledgeable guides i fished for many years all over south florida, lake 'o' and northern lakes with this company i have fished extensively for exotic species with their main sth florida guide, capt Brett Isaacson. his knowledge of the fish and waters, his patience, reliability, and cordial approach is unmatched. if you fish the lakes, canals, or the evergaldes, or lake 'o' , you should fish with capt Brett and learn all you can 


excellent guides and service used this group for more than 10 yearsevery guide and trip has been great and professionalall the guides are licensed and insuredall the guides really know where the fish are, and how to get themive fished worldwide and if your in florida, dont make a mistake and book 'any old guide' you find on the internetthis group have a network of guides all over the stateand are up to date on which waters are good and fish are biting at any given time 


Good service and great guide This was a very efficient service which aligned us with Capt Brett Isackson. We fished Peacock Bass day 1 and Large mouth day 2. It was a great experience. Boat, tackle, etc. all very good and Capt Brett was very personable and professional. 
Incredible Day Of Peacock Bass Fishing!! My 13 year old son and I spent an amazing day in the Everglades with Capt Brett Isackson. Capt Brett put us on peacock after peacock all day long (with several in the 4-5lb range) and couldnât have been a better host. Good instruction and assistance and great conversation only helped a day that was already something that we will remember the rest of our lives with over 50 peacocks being caught along with too many Largemouth, Oscars and Mayans to count. Will definitely be booking with Capt Brett next time we are in the area. 


Bass Trip All I can say is â wow âwhat an awesome guide trip we had with Captain Brett! we crushed big largemouth and big peacock bass for the four hours that we fished. Brett we will be sure to use your guide service again in the near future -fish on !! 
Late December fishing Lake Okeechobee with captain Brett Isaackson We had great fun fishing two days with Brett Isaackson on Lake Okeechobee. We caught a large number of largemouth bass up to 8lbs over two days fishing. We had a great time and good conversation with Brett. He is fun to fish with and made our experience very enjoyable. We definitely will try to book him again when we return. 




Can't go wrong with Bass on line This us now our 4th trip with Bass On Line whom we trust. We finally picked a few days that we did not suffer any cold front or weather problems as we have had on previous trips even though Captain Brett always overcame the odds & found us the fish. This trip he was busy so Captain Wayne was our guide and he was terrific!!! Boy did we catch fish! My arms hurt from reeling & fighting those feisty peacocks. I also caught a lot of bass too! One was over 5 lbs!! We had a fantastic 2 days of fishing with Captain Wayne Not only is he a great guide but funny & nice too. We will never use another outfit!!! Hint: Listen to your guide on his recommendation of how much bait you will need. 


An excellent week I first want to thank Captain Bret and Captain Bob for making my week. Despite the tough conditions, both were able to get me on many peacock bass. They expertly put the boat where I needed it to be able to cast a fly to some really great fish. The front office moved my days around to ensure I had the best possible opportunities. I would go with them again this week if I didnât have to work. 


Captain Brett was great! We had this trip given for a wedding gift! We had one amazing weekend catching fish!! Captain Brett took us out even though weather wasn't great. We caught a load of Peacock Bass and went inshore fishing the next day! I would highly recommend this company and their captains to anyone! Can't beat a day on the water! 




1st fishing trip on the Big O The trip started off a little rocky, with poor communication response from front office of Bass Online. Took different avenues to book the trip since I wasn't getting a response from their internet site. After clearing all that up the trip went off without a hitch. My wife and I went out with Brett and he worked his butt off trying to get us on the fish in 96 degree heat. We caught about a dozen decent size fish and lost a few big ones, but overall the fishing trip was great Cant wait for next trip. 


Okeechobee in the summer My son and I fished Okeechobee in late June on a still, sunny morning with Captain Brett Isackson. In 4 hours we landed 30 bass, one of which was almost 10 lbs. It was incredible, the quality of fish was great and Captain Brett could not have been better. If you want a great experience call and ask for Captain Brett Isackson. 


One of my favorite things to do. Captain Brett is AWESOME, THE BEST GUIDE I have been fishing with Bassonline for over 10 years now. They are a great company. BUT the main reason I continue to fish with them, is because of Captain Brett. Not only does he "put you on the fish", he is enjoyable to be around, he makes the day that much more fun. Captain Brett has an awesome bass boat. I have fished all over the place but "flying" through the lake on this boat is a great feeling. The entire day is a blast. You will definitely catch fish but fishing with Captain Brett is the way to go. 


Great Bass fishing My husband & I booked with 3 day fishing trip Dec 2014. Our guide( Brett for 2 days & Tony for 1) were wonderful. An unexpected cold front came through and they still managed to get us to the Peacock Bass and large mouth which typically like the warmer temperatures. This was our second trip with this company and we are already planning another. 


Peacock Bass, brewskies and a whole lot of fun! Two good ol' Nebraskan boys come down to Florida to take in a football game and hoping to do some bass fishing. We decided to use Bass Online and hire Captain Brett to show us the local fishing hot-spots and catch something we've never seen before. What we got was two outstanding days of fishing, few beers drank, some bull shot, and a whole lot of fun! Brett catered to our needs and got us on fish in a very stylish boat. I was using a fly rod and had success both days and caught many species. One thing, STAY OUT OF MIAMI! The place is unwelcoming, especially to white folks. The scenery and fishing is much better North in Fort Lauderdale. We plan on visiting again and will be utilizing Capt. Brett's awesome guide skills. If you've never caught a Peacock, use Bassonline. Both the fish and guides will not disappoint. 


Thank you, Lori, for answering all my questions, met your husband at bait shop-nice guy. Please relay to my guides that I truly had a FANTASTIC time. God bless all- Bobby Sboray, Roanoke, Va.

Peacock pur!!! Nach Beratung am Telefon, habe ich mich für die 6 Stunden Tour entschieden! Ein MEGA Erlebnis! Der Guide, Capt. Brett war hervorragend! Eine unglaubliche Ruhe und Ortskenntnisse! Wir haben mit Shiners und Kunstköder geangelt. Auf beides haben wir gefangen. Am Schluss hatten wir folgendes Resultat: 12 Peacocks 2 Bass 1 Crappie Noch Fragen?:) Super! 


Fantastic fishing experience!!! Fished for 5 days with Bass Online. Had 3 different guides, Brett, Bob, and Tony. I am 68 years young and did i have a BLAST!! I expressed prior to my fishing that i wanted to use live bait and i knew it was my responsibility to purchase. There was NEVER a problem, we stopped at the bait shop each morning, and i bought the shinners. All one has to do is read what is expected of you, it is on their website. Anyway, a dream come true. Was picked up each morning on time at my hotel and returned that evening, that was a BIG plus!! And when guide says he will be there at 6am, he was there at 6am. Anyway caught LOTS of fish, only the guide and myself on boat so we just had FUN, this is the way i wanted it also. I have fished a lot all over and i can truly say, they KNOW what they are talking about, for heaven's sake listen to them-they do this for a living. Thank you Lori for answering all my questions, met you husband at bait shop-nice guy. Please relay to my guides that i truly had a FANTASTIC time. God bless all- Bobby Sboray, Roanoke, Va. 




Bassonline.com...Great guide, great fishing, great company! My dad and myself had an opportunity to fish with Capt. Brett from bassonline on April 3rd and 4th! The fishing was good the first day but we weren't lucky enough to catch any trophy fish! On day 2 the weather had taken a turn and it was getting nasty pretty fast. We were lucky enough to boat a really nice 8lb 10oz bass and many more smaller fish. Missed a few fish that could have been real nice as well! Capt Brett couldn't have been any nicer or more accommodating if he tried! He had us change our meeting place to better find the fish we were hoping to find. He did a great job finding the best spots for some great fishing! We got lucky and the weather held off for our 6 hour trip then completely let loose that afternoon. Hopefully Capt Brett and a client didn't have an afternoon trip planned for later that day, if they did then I'm sure they got washed off the lake! I highly recommend booking a guided trip with them and asking for Brett! We will definitely be booking with him again! Great guide, very professional, and a lot of fun to fish with! Aaron K.
