WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT CAPT GALEN

“ Booked two 6hr days fishing with Capt. Galen. 1st day live bait fishing was a relaxing productive day. 2nd day half live half artificial. Just as relaxing and fun as the first day. Had to work a little harder with the artificial, but Capt. Galen put us on fish both days. Had a great time. Capt. Galen is as knowledgeable, personable and friendly as you could want out of a guide.”

outstanding -love it so much
★★★★★
“ Been fishing with Capt Galen for 2 years and value each trip we get together. Forty to sixty fish days are not uncommon. Its like being with an old friend-one that takes you on your best day fishing you've had all year. Then you go the next day and its even BETTER! Galen represents his trade with integrity and devotion. He shows up to work and is prepared with the knowledge of where the fish are. You can hem and haw about which guide to choose or what price to pay but I'm on the phone with him right now booking my next trip.”

Fun 1/2 day with Captain Galen
★★★★★
“ My 13-year old son and I had a great time with Captain Galen. The bass were being picky but we were still able to bring a few onto the boat along with some other fish. I highly recommend Captain Galen if you are looking for a knowledgeable and fun guide.”

Highly recommend BassOnline!
★★★★★
“ Highly recommend BassOnline! Captain Galen went above and beyond for us. Not only did he put my wife and I on bass ALL day, he had an amazing personality. Fishing with him was like fishing with a lifelong friend. We all spent the day joking, sharing stories, and catching fish. We had very tough fishing conditions for our outing, but his knowledge ensured we caught a lot of fish. Book your Okeechobee trip with BassOnline and request Captain Galen Fugh.”

Weather Rules
★★★☆☆
“ Tough day of fishing after a front roles through. Leftover wind mad it difficult to fish what would generally be better fishing locations. Galen did his best to make it a good day. We had already rescheduled to Wednesday due to the front/all day rain on Tuesday. Disappointed my son, who was on college spring break, didn't get to experience the great fishing that Okeechobee is known for.”
