Orlando Customer Review

“We want to thank you for helping us out and answering all our questions. We dumped another Orlando guide service because of a lack of professionalism and communication. However, we felt after talking with your service; you were the right outfit for us. My instinct paid off, and as an intermediate angler and my wife, who is considered a novice, we could not have asked for more. 

We paid our deposit online, which was so easy and safe as I worry about that these days. After that, the office sent us a direct link to get our fishing license, and we were good to go for our bass fishing trip.

The day ended upbringing poor weather conditions, and I really thought that it would hinder our trip. An unexpected strong storm had come in the morning of our charter. However, our guide, Capt John Leech, was still committed to putting us on fish. Capt John delivered and is a fantastic Orlando bass fishing guide for so many reasons. I clearly could not do this job, and on this day, the task was much harder. Capt John put us on so many fish; he almost couldn’t believe it. As with fishing, we missed several that we wish upon for a future date. 

Current Activities

But today, we both caught our personal best largemouth bass. My wife caught a 10lb trophy bass to brag about, but fishing is cyclical, and I understood opportunity was still available. An hour later, I caught my best bass by about 10.5lbs, and my wife got another around 8lbs.

I have been around for a while; I am now 70 years young. What I have learned in life is what you see and hear is generally what you will get. Meaning if you aren’t satisfied with talking with someone during a reservation, you can’t expect the fishing trip to big better. Look at the whole process; a sub-par service will provide a sub-par fishing day. This speaks volumes of what these guys at Bass Online can do for you. Simply put, I could not express enough thanks to the entire TEAM for our fishing charter. Do not even consider selecting another guide in the Central Florida area; my investment, experience, and memories are irreplaceable, and at this age, that’s saying something!

My son had an incredible time fishing with Capt. Devin this morning! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. We caught so many fish, including an impressive 8 lb bass! Capt. Devin was knowledgeable, patient, and made sure they were having fun the entire time. This trip was a highlight of their trip to Disney World! We will definitely be booking another trip soon.

5 star rating An awesome day on Lake Toho with bassonline.com guide and Captain John Leech January 2024 My wife had a business trip in the Orlando area so I tagged along and scheduled a trip with Capt. John Leech in late January hoping to catch some big pre spawn bass on Lake Toho. A big cold front came through the day before our trip so the potential for a tough day was there. With the expert help of Capt. John, and despite the very cool conditions, we were able to catch fish all day long! We caught a lot in the 2-4 pound range with a couple of 5 pounders and one that went 6.32 for big fish of the day. It was an excellent day and John was wonderful company! I Highly recommend Capt. John Leech if you are looking for a person who flat knows where they are and how to catch them! By the way this is my second trip to Florida in the past year. I have booked through bassonline.com both times one on Okeechobee and then this trip to Toho. The trips were professional and exactly what I asked for and paid for each time. Book with confidence!

Great experience! Visiting for the 4th of Dec at my fiancés parents house. They hired Bass Online and we went fishing on the lake and had a excellent time. The fish were plentiful and easy to catch, there are nice size bass and crappies. The water is very refreshing and clean. While fishing, you see many people just run there boats out in the lake. The scenery from the water is beautiful especially on a good day. Bring your kids, they will love it!

Great Time Bass Fishing with Capt. Dave was one of the fun things we did for our vacation in Orlando area. Caught so many fish I can't keep track of. Our largest catch was more than 5 pounds strong & beautiful bass. Capt. Dave knows the best fishing spots and tricks. Beside learning to bait, cast and reeling we also enjoy the quiet time on the lake.

Fishing with Bass Online Just finished an awesome trip with Bass Online on Johns Lake in Orlando. I can't say enough how awesome our guide was. Despite differences in experience between my father and me. Captain was able to provide the perfect amount of coaching for each of us. His expertise is easily demonstrated with a single sentence. He certainly has the experience and the knowledge to provide an amazing trip out fishing. We landed 19 large mouth bass and a few more undesirable fish in a half day. Was recommended from Disney and we Highly recommend this as an activity in Orlando!

Great experience! I just got back from a 1/2 day morning trip on Johns Lake with Bass Online and it couldn't have been better. I've been with a lot of different guides throughout Canada and Bass Online is the best I have ever used. They are knowledgeable and passionate about every aspect of the fishing trip. I learned a lot and cant wait to do it all over again.

Even better time than Disney Last minute trip to Orlando with my brother who wanted to fish. I told him about Bass Online who used with my 10-year old son in 2013 and had the greatest bass fishing trip of my life (so did my son). We could only get Bass Online for one day, but it oddly gave us an opportunity to compere his guide service with the "competition." Both captains we went out with caught us fish after a brutal cold front. Both were very knowledgeable and had great boats, equipment, etc. But, honestly the comparisons end there. Such a professional company, Bass Online, every time you call someone informative answers. They are serious about bass fishing, but does not impose that upon you. They understand the whole deal is to make sure you have fun. Whether that is with my 10 year old son, or my 45 year old brother. They made both trips ones for the books. Honestly, I fish with guides all over the world for all sorts of stuff. Bass Online is my favorite by a wide margin. Oh, and BTW, we caught 50% more fish day two. Just saying...

positive review  The entire experience was perfect - Captain Devin on Lake Toho in Florida was extremely patient and supportive. With a boat full for novice and first time fishers he helped each person every step of the way. We caught several bass and a few pike and with every catch he offered to take a picture. The pictures came out great - and I’m pretty picky with pictures! 10/10 - would absolutely recommend and ask for Captain Devin - you won’t be disappointed!

Great Guide,Great experince, As a Saltwater fishermen my entire life i never knew why so much attention and why such a big industry is built around the largemouth bass,spending the day with Captain Darrel was a real eye opener for me,we caught a bunch of fish and some big ones too,but more important than that was that i was fishing with a Fishermen who knows Bass and Bass Fishing inside and out,i will be coming back for sure,but in the meantime ill be hitting the local lakes back home employing the techniques i learned from Captain Darrel,Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and a GREAT DAY on the water!!

Too much fun! Don't look anywhere else if you want to catch big bass. Bass Online knows where they are and how to catch them. Caught more than 20 in 4 hours, and could have caught more if I was a better fisherman. I still have a sore spot on my belly from the butt of the rod from setting hooks!

Great experience! If you are thinking of booking a bass trip this is the one to book. Bass Online will not let you down. The weather wasn't looking too good but it held off for a great morning of bass fishing. We boated over 30 bass with my 11 year old son catching 19. I will definitely be booking another trip during my next stay in Florida. Thank you once again Bass Online.

Great time! Fantastic afternoon Bass Fishing with BassOnline. Great lake, guide was prepared for anything - when some rain storms passed through he had rain gear on hand for everyone so we could keep at it comfortably. We were fishing in less than five minutes from leaving the dock, and hooked up on our very first cast. Capt John knows this lake well, has a keen eye for when there's activity of any kind, and was generally a great guy to hang out with. For what it's worth, these locations are an easy Uber from Orlando (both ways) for cheap. We'll be going again!

Great day of Bass Fishing w/ Capt. BILL Goudy on Lake Toho Today, was the second time fishing with Capn. Bill Goudy, both times Bill put me on fish immediately and for the most part the bass continued to bite for us all day. Today we fished Lake Toho near Kissemme FL, and we caught approximately 20-25 fish on my 6 hour trip. My biggest fish of the day was just shy of 6 lbs. If you want a great day of bass fishing, I would heartily recommend Bill Goudy. I know I will be using his services again.

Honestly the best Florida fishing trip I’ve ever had. The tour guide was exceptional! We ended up bringing fewer people than we planned and were reimbursed our funds accordingly (which was a pleasant surprise!) I caught the biggest crappie of my life. The large mouth bass are massive! We also caught chain pickerel which were really cool. 10/10 would strongly recommend! (Make sure you have a current Florida fishing license).
