Well, fishing trip management Excellent, well-managed trip from booking over the phone to the trip itself. We arrived early, and the boat left early for a great afternoon's 4-hour trip. Big-sized largemouth bass were all caught. We also saw another fish surfacing around the boat. Robert (the captain) was too busy unhooking everyone’s fish. I definitely recommend it. I’ve now been boat fishing with 3 generations of this family who know these waters like the back of their hand.

Enjoyable trip... It was our very first fishing experience, and it was amazing! Robert is extremely experienced and exceptionally helpful. Our trip was in the early morning, and we had four amazing hours of fishing, catching lots of largemouth bass in just an hour. We even spot a school of bluegill fish out in the water! All in all a really enjoyable trip and excellent value for money!

Great Captain and great time Captain Stumpe was amazing and very knowledgeable. We wanted to do tournament style fishing using soft plastics and artificial baits. It’s harder to catch fish than using live bait and Captain still put us on the fish. I would definitely go again

All you need to bring is your Florida fishing license, snacks, and drinks—I’ll take care of the rest.
