Reasons for Pontoon Rentals Lake Okeechobee

Pontoons boats are the perfect rental option for groups up to twelve who don’t want to split up but still want the full personalized tour. It is also undoubtedly the best option for young kids, the elderly, and handicapped situations.

Groups

Lake Okeechobee boat rentals are the perfect adventure for large families or friends looking to enjoy an outdoor activity or fishing in the bass capital of the world without splitting up. Previous visitors have rented the boat for special events such as family reunions, corporate outings, and bachelorette parties.

Bass boats and other flats boats can only fit 3 or 4 people maximum, a pontoon fishing charter can fit up to 6 passengers, but your boat rental can fit up to twelve passengers!

Kids

Pontoon boats are much sturdier and roomier than flats and bass boats. Pontoons don’t rock as much and have sides making it safer for young kids.

Elderly

Our pontoon boats are roomy, with plenty of sitting areas under the bimini top for those looking for a relaxing experience out of the sun. We love when the grandparents come and enjoy watching their grandkid’s faces light up after they catch a fish. It’s a much sturdier experience than the bass and flats boats and more intimate than public headboat and airboat tours. A bass and flats boat is much lower and requires more balance from a person boarding.

Because of the excess floor space and set up of a pontoon, accommodating those in a wheelchair or any handicapped situation is no problem. Pontoons are higher and more level with the dock, making boarding much easier for our renters.

Motion Sickness

For those who get easily nauseated by rocking water, pontoon rental Lake Okeechobee boats will likely provide a much better experience than a low rocky bass boat.

Dog Lovers

Our pontoon rental Lake Okeechobee is available with the goal of everyone having an exciting, fantastic day. This even goes for your four-legged friend. Well-behaved dogs are more than welcome on board.

Lake Okeechobee Reviews

Catching fish with Mark Rose

Okeechobee
★★★★★
When we arrived, we heard people coming to shore saying , “the water is murky”, “they’re not biting today” , “only caught one or two”. When we met up with Captain Mark, he prepared us to have patience. Mark brought us to clear water and put us on the fish. We caught at least 15 fish, had some laughs, and learned a bit about the lake and a lot about fishing with artificial.Would certainly recommend ! Very cool experience! Remember it’s Lake Okeechobee, be humble.

Great Day Fishing!

Okeechobee
★★★★★
My brother and I went out for a 6 hour trip with Capt. Mark Rose on Friday, 2/3/23. Capt. Mark is a great and knowledgeable Capt. and his new boat rides like a "Cadillac" over the water and is a beauty with lots of room to move about and loads of places to pick a spot to fish from. We motored over in his new "Cadillac" to some really great areas on the South side of Lake Okeechobee. Within 5 minutes, we had bass in the boat on both a top popper and dancing fluke. That scenario continued for a few hours. When the fog rolled in, it felt surreal. So peaceful, quiet and relaxing. When the bite slowed down, Capt. Mark moved us to another secluded area where we again began to catch again. All in all it was a beautiful day on the lake and Capt. Mark was very hospitable, patient and friendly. I asked my brother if he wanted to say anything in this review and he replied "My brother and I went out with Capt. Mark Rose and we loved him". Great job Capt.! It was a beautiful day. Thank you so much. See you next time.

Boat Rentals on Okeechobee

Lake Okeechobee is legendary for producing quality and quantity largemouth bass, creating the ultimate fishing adventure with the whole family.

Pontoons are large enough to fit a group but small enough to cruise the calm Lake O waters with fishing success. While Pontoon Rentals Lake Okeechobee maybe for fishing, you will have the same high probability of success as in flats or bass boats. The number of fish caught by people who rent a pontoon is often higher because of the ability to have more rods out at once. The boat is the perfect size and shape for many people fishing around it. Your mate will be able to take you to all the best spots, so everyone has a shot at catching fish regardless of which side of the boat you are on.

Live bait, especially wild shiners, is typically the most effective method in catching a trophy on the big o.

Lake Okeechobee is most known for its incredible bass fishing, but it also holds a thriving panfish population, such as bluegill and black crappie.

Sightseeing

Being part of the Florida Everglades, Lake Okeechobee is home to many plants and animals. Apart from the fishes and alligators, Lake Okeechobee is an incredible birdwatching spot. The sanctuaries on Lake Okeechobee help protect various species, including Snail Kites and the American Bald Eagle.
