WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT CAPT LARRY

2 Trips = 10 Stars I booked back to back trips with Bass Online. We fished two different lakes with two different guides but both were very professional. Both provided all of the tackle, bait, and necessary knowledge to have 2 very successful fishing trips. The number of bass we caught and the quality of bass we caught far exceeded my expectations considering we were fishing in late July in FL. I would absolutely use Bass Online again. Thanks for a great experience. 


Great guide. Solid service Fished with Larry Crossman. Great guide. Patient, professional and accommodating. Had the ability to slide one day for better weather. No hassles and Larry suggested going earlier next day. This really paid off as fishing was active but only for first 2 hours. We had a blast, learned a lot and recommend Larry highly. 


great day of fishing (a little catching) A buddy and I had a great day fishing with Captain Larry on the south end of Lake Okeechobee. The weather was beautiful, the wildlife plentiful, and we caught a few fish. It was very enjoyable and Captain Larry was a knowledgeable guide who worked hard to get us on fish in tough, low water conditions. 


Great Experience Fished an 8 hour trip. Bass were turned off on this, the third day of cold front. Guide Larry, put us on some nice fish despite the cold water temp. Boat was fast, roomy and clean. Larry is a great professional guide. I will use his services again. 
Bass Fishing with Larry Experienced informative guide who put us on fish. Knew the waters, entertaining conversations. Professional and on time. We live baited which was quite effective for bass. Keep in mind you purchase the live air. Highly recommend Larry Crossman. 
Great day of fishing despite the weather!! We met with our captain on our scheduled day. A massive cold front had moved in dropping the water temps by 10 degrees. The wind was at 20 mph. But Captian Larry Crossman stuck with it and found us some bass. My biggest was a nearly 5 pound largemouth, my biggest ever. I'd go back on this charter in a heartbeat. 


Good afternoon of fishing! I got this trip for my husband and son, after Captain Crossman go them to their location it was nothing but continuous reeling in of fish. I was hoping that they at least were able to catch a few, but it was much more than that and, not to mention, the biggest ones they have ever caught! They never moved from that spot, they didn't need to. Since we are not from the area we were not aware of the cost of live bait, we were aware it was additional to the outing but be prepared for an additional $20-24 per dozen. All in all great fishing day! 


Great Guides, Quality Service! Went today with Guides Larry, Brian & Mike for a cool video shoot about bass fishing, beautiful day, these guys knew exactly where to go, even on a cool day. They know their business and Bass Online is a professional, first class service...plus they're friendly and make every trip a great experience! 


Great Bass Fishing Trip with Larry Crossman! We had a great time with Larry Cross man as our fishing guide. He gave is lots of tips and insights on how to fish for bass, but also the town of Okeechobee and the lake itself. Had a lot of action until the sun came out and it got hot, but we had a blast. Thanks Larry!
