Ex Marine becomes Marine Expert I had the pleasure, recently ( Dec. 13,14 and 15 ,2024) of fishing with D.J. Timms. His ability to put us on fish was uncanny.

My family and I recommend him highly. Bob Ziegler

Iguana hunt Had a great time with DJ super friendly guy and very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing and what he’s looking for. He’s a very honest person on what he does and not out for ur money but out to have a good time with you. we didn’t get a lot of sun in the morning which made the hunt difficult but he still managed to get us on iguanas! I was even able to get one with my bow rig which I never thought was going to be a possibility but not even 10 minutes into the hunt we got plenty of shots off and managed to get some cool pictures! 10/10 will go again!

Awesome Learning Experience Spent 2 days with DJ fishing various locations in the Everglades and Caloosahatchee River. Had a phenomenal time fishing for a variety of species. DJ was super. We have traveled the country using a variety of guides through the years and DJ was one of the best ever. He was helpful, professional, courteous, patient, and was willing to teach his trade......oh yeah, he's got a pretty good sense of humor too. We highly recommend using him and look forward to fishing with him in the future.

Bass fishing Went out on Okeechobee with DJ and had a great day. What to expect… super clean boat / truck / tackle, very professional, respectful and highly knowledgeable bass (largemouth & peacock) guide. I’ve been bass fishing for 34 years and literally learned 7 new things while on DJ’s boat. Several of them significantly improved my flipping technique! Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a serious guide who knows what he is doing.

CAPT DJ TIMMS took us out 3 days on lake okeechobee. He contacted us before hand about what to bring and what to expect. During our trip he was very informative about the lake and it's surrounding. We had a great time and would highly recommend him. If we were to return to the area we would definitely use him again.

peacock bass fishing with my daughter We had a wonderful day on the water with Capt. DJ. My daughter and I caught about 20 peacocks and a couple largemoth. Since watching a fishing show when i was a kid where they were catching peacock bass on the Amazon I always wanted to go. My daughter started school at FGCU and when researching local fishing (we are from Wisconsin) I discovered I didn't have to go to the Amazon to catch them. They are a lot of fun to catch and beautiful fish.

Anther successful day with DJ Timms 4th time out fishing Florida bass with DJ Yesterday and another great day. My brother and I caught peacock bass in the everglades this time. Fishing with DJ means he will be there when you get there, the boat will be loaded up, minnows purchased, water stocked, rods and reels all lined up like Rockettes, his boat is immaculate. He can get to areas where there are fish that others would not find, And more important than anything else, he is a guy you can spend a whole day in a boat with. He doesn't try to out fish you, because he doesn't even fish when he's guiding, he prefers to stick to guiding duties, making sure you get the most out of your day. Stop looking, you found the captain you want to fish with.

Kids trip success Afternoon fish/hunt boat trip with the kids (3&5). DJ was professional, laid back, and fun. We picked off some iguanas (my wife became a warrior out there and could not get enough) and we caught some beautiful peacock bass. Kids were entertained the whole time. The goal was to have a memorable day on the water and DJ delivered. I sport fish regularly and could tell that DJ could turn up the heat and fish hard too. I’d certainly call him for a hardcore fishing day as well.

A good day out. My brother David and I met DJ at 7:00 am and we had bait in the water by 7:30. We landed a 5 pounder within minutes. The day was beautiful, the fishing was hit and miss, and DJ was a great guide. We’ll be hiring him again soon and send our friends to him.

We were on the water in 5 mins and catching fish within the first 20. DJ helped rigging, pointed us in the right direction and held great conversation all day. He was very personable and willing to help the entire day. Definitely the guide you want on lake Okeechobee!

Great trip for the family Capt DJ Timms took us out for the morning, and helped all 4 of us catch some bass. Only one of the four of us had ever fished with shiners before, and he taught each of us what it took to land a bass. He found a couple good spots, and was able to put every cast in exactly the spot he wanted and where he knew the fish would be. I know it can be hard to support four inexperienced fishermen at one time, and he did it well and with a smile. Thanks for a great day!

Ex Marine becomes Marine Expert I had the pleasure, recently ( Dec. 13,14 and 15 ,2024) of fishing with D.J. Timms. His ability to put us on fish was uncanny. We caught many fish including three 8 lb. Bass and numerous 7 , 6 , 5 , 4 and 3 lb. Bass. DJ is a gentleman at all times. He is punctual and his equipment is top/ notch . He is easy to deal with . My family and I recommend him highly. Bob Ziegler

Iguana hunt Had a great time with DJ super friendly guy and very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing and what he’s looking for. He’s a very honest person on what he does and not out for ur money but out to have a good time with you. we didn’t get a lot of sun in the morning which made the hunt difficult but he still managed to get us on iguanas! I was even able to get one with my bow rig which I never thought was going to be a possibility but not even 10 minutes into the hunt we got plenty of shots off and managed to get some cool pictures! 10/10 will go again!

Awesome Learning Experience Spent 2 days with DJ fishing various locations in the Everglades and Caloosahatchee River. Had a phenomenal time fishing for a variety of species. DJ was super. We have traveled the country using a variety of guides through the years and DJ was one of the best ever. He was helpful, professional, courteous, patient, and was willing to teach his trade......oh yeah, he's got a pretty good sense of humor too. We highly recommend using him and look forward to fishing with him in the future.

Bass fishing Went out on Okeechobee with DJ and had a great day. What to expect… super clean boat / truck / tackle, very professional, respectful and highly knowledgeable bass (largemouth & peacock) guide. I’ve been bass fishing for 34 years and literally learned 7 new things while on DJ’s boat. Several of them significantly improved my flipping technique! Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a serious guide who knows what he is doing.

peacock bass fishing with my daughter We had a wonderful day on the water with Capt. DJ. My daughter and I caught about 20 peacocks and a couple largemoth. Since watching a fishing show when i was a kid where they were catching peacock bass on the Amazon I always wanted to go. My daughter started school at FGCU and when researching local fishing (we are from Wisconsin) I discovered I didn't have to go to the Amazon to catch them. They are a lot of fun to catch and beautiful fish.

Anther successful day with DJ Timms 4th time out fishing Florida bass with DJ Yesterday and another great day. My brother and I caught peacock bass in the everglades this time. Fishing with DJ means he will be there when you get there, the boat will be loaded up, minnows purchased, water stocked, rods and reels all lined up like Rockettes, his boat is immaculate. He can get to areas where there are fish that others would not find, And more important than anything else, he is a guy you can spend a whole day in a boat with. He doesn't try to out fish you, because he doesn't even fish when he's guiding, he prefers to stick to guiding duties, making sure you get the most out of your day. Stop looking, you found the captain you want to fish with.

Kids trip success Afternoon fish/hunt boat trip with the kids (3&5). DJ was professional, laid back, and fun. We picked off some iguanas (my wife became a warrior out there and could not get enough) and we caught some beautiful peacock bass. Kids were entertained the whole time. The goal was to have a memorable day on the water and DJ delivered. I sport fish regularly and could tell that DJ could turn up the heat and fish hard too. I’d certainly call him for a hardcore fishing day as well.

Lake Okeechobee Bass Fishing Capt DJ Timms met us on time at the location we determined. He had a cooler stocked with waters, and rods rigged up ready to go. We were on the water in 5 mins and catching fish within the first 20. DJ helped rigging, pointed us in the right direction and held great conversation all day. He was very personable and willing to help the entire day. Definitely the guide you want on lake Okeechobee!

Great trip for the family Capt DJ Timms took us out for the morning, and helped all 4 of us catch some bass. Only one of the four of us had ever fished with shiners before, and he taught each of us what it took to land a bass. He found a couple good spots, and was able to put every cast in exactly the spot he wanted and where he knew the fish would be. I know it can be hard to support four inexperienced fishermen at one time, and he did it well and with a smile. Thanks for a great day!

Thank you Capt. DJ Timms We came down to Florida for our dads 60th birthday, never fished Okeechobee and all I can say is WOW! Amazing time, weather wasn’t great but Capt. DJ got us to a spot and all of us were bringing in the biggest largemouth we’ve ever seen. Great day and Capt. DJ showed us a great time!

Lake Okeechobee We had a great time with Captain DJ Timms! He was very knowledgeable and prepared. He was very patient and great to talk to. We caught some amazing large mouth bass. They were great size and big fighters. Will definitely book more charters with him!
