Steady Bites and Pro Guide! Capt. Robert Stumpe was a fantastic experience from start to finish. He knew exactly where the fish were holding and kept us on productive water all day. The mix of bass and occasional surprise species made things exciting, and the peaceful river setting was the cherry on top. Robert’s knowledge, patience, and well-rigged boat made it a smooth and enjoyable trip. Definitely booking with him again!

Incredible Fishing Adventure on St Johns River I had an amazing experience fishing with Robert Stumpe of St Johns River Fishing! From start to finish, the trip was well-organized, and Robert made sure everything went smoothly.

The boat was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a successful day on the water. Robert’s extensive knowledge of the St. Johns River really stood out, as he took us to the best fishing spots and gave us helpful tips throughout the trip.

Not only was the fishing fantastic, but Robert’s friendly and professional demeanor made the whole experience enjoyable. Whether you’re an experienced angler or a beginner, he ensures that everyone feels at ease and has a great time.

I highly recommend St Johns River Fishing Charters to anyone looking for a top-notch fishing experience. It was an unforgettable trip, and I can’t wait to book another one!

What a day! The weather was perfect, and the charter team made it even better. They were professional yet friendly, helping us reel in some solid catches. The boat was spotless and comfortable. I appreciated how safety-conscious they were too. Can’t wait to come back again.

Lake Erie - Mark Rose When I was looking for a great Christmas gift for my family full of bass fisherman, I started researching smallmouth fishing on Lake Erie. The first guide I called was primarily a walleye fishing guide and he said if you are looking to get into the smallmouth, Captain Mark Rose is your guy, and boy was he right! I booked the trip in December for the third week in May for 3 days when Mark told me was a good time to hit Lake Erie for smallmouth. When we met Mark, we immediately felt we had the right guy for our fishing experience. He knew exactly where to go and we literally started catching fish on the first cast. Mark has the right size boat and the best equipment available for success. Despite the terrible weather (wind, rain, cold) we caught 60 to 70 smallmouth the first day. It was a blast! Over the 3 days, we landed upwards to 130 smallmouth. We all easily crushed our personal bests with upper 4 pound to over 5 pound smallmouth. My 14 year old son caught three 5 pounders the first day! We were also able to check a “northern fishing trip” off my dad’s bucket list. We thank Captain Mark Rose and BassOnline not only for great customer service but for a great customer experience! We hope to do this again soon! Your friends from West Virginia Jamie Tracie Jay Trevor

Catchin Bass guide service Bill Goudy Jr is an easy going guide that wants you to catch fish. He takes me out with shiners for relaxing catching. Then we though me how to throw a chatter bait and we caught another 20 with another giant lost in the drill. He put us on 30 plus fish to 8 and a half pounds. Highly recommend and going with Captain Bill, he's the most knowledge guide on Headwaters Lake.

First Class We booked a trip for two boats with Capt John Miller and Capt Jon Polanco for a day of smallmouth fishing. The weather couldn't have been much worse but these two guys were exceptional. Not only did they put us onto fish they were so much fun to spend a day with fishing. The two boats competed against each other and John and Jon made that experience so enjoyable. We will book with them again and highly recommend both Captains!

2025 Lake trip My friend Mark and I had another great couple days fishing with Captain Mark. Mark knows exactly what what the fish are doing and the tactics to catch them. I can't say enough about his ability to put you on fish. My friend and I both caught our personal best largemouth this year. This is our 7th year fishing with Captain Mark. We are already looking forward to the next trip

Bass Fishing on Head Water with Dan Dan Hamilton was so informative, kind, and responsive. He kept me informed on lake conditions the best spots to fish and put us right on bass. We have several bass within the first 15 minutes and I couldn’t even be more impressed! I also loved that he communicated with our 2nd boat captain on what we were doing and what decisions we made. He was pretty cut and dry but if you know Florida people then you know that is standard lol. Don’t use it against him because I promise he will get you bass!

Lake Erie with Mark Rose I have been out with Mark twice on Presque Isle Bay, Erie. PA. The man knows this lake better than anyone and is a blast to fish with. I have been fishing for 25 years and have my own boat so I appreciate the experience you get with Mark. He makes sure to be his clients on trophy Smallmouth Bass in about the sweetest Ranger boat you could imagine. You can have 50+ fish days if you trust in Mark and all his gear is technique specific that can be used by experienced and new anglers. Would definitely suggest going with Mark of Bass Online if you wanna experience the finest Smallmouth fishing in PA!

Unbelievable fishing trip! The action started early and didn’t let up. Our captain knew all the honey holes and kept the mood light with great conversation and fishing tips. We boated several solid bass and even a surprise tarpon. Everything from the gear to the boat was in perfect shape. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking to make unforgettable memories on the water.

Great Bass Fishing Captain Dawson Wisner is a great guide. He put my wife, son, and I on some big bass, taught us how to fish for them on Okeechobee in the vegetation, and was patient with us when we got hung up or got distracted by the gators. I would definitely recommend him for your next guide.

Bass galore I am new to bass fishing, we live just down the street from the lake. My daughter and I go out in a small john boat 2-3 times a week for an hour or so. A slow day is 1 fish each. Often we land 3 or 4 good sized bass at sunset. Lots of fun.

Great Fishing Experience Me and a high school buddy of mine booked a two-day 6 hours each day cruise with Captain Justin April 1 & 2. We were both very happy with his personal service and his modern and well-maintained fishing equipment. On the first day he took us to a place where the bass fishing was exceptional. I'm guessing we caught somewhere between 30-40 bass - the biggest being a 24-inch 7 1/2-pound lunker. On the second day the winds were blowing too hard to go out on the open lake, but he took us to a sheltered place where the fishing was almost as good as the previous day. I want to say that I am a handicapped person with serious sciolous in my lower back. Captain Justin went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable and safe while travelling, boarding and exiting the boat. Captain Justin is personable and professional guide, and I would highly recommend you trust him to make your fishing date on Lake Okeechobee a memorable one.

Bass Fishing Florida & Lake Erie We have booked a bass trip every year with Mark Rose either in Florida or Erie,Pa. For 10 years. Nobody works harder to help us catch our limit than Mark. He has an amazing ability to find & target bass. He is so thrilled when we land a bass. He is intense & loves what he does. We look forward to getting together.
