Lake Ida

Captain Dawson is amazing. He was very helpful and professional. He has a great eye at seeing iguanas. We would love to do another trip with him. Lots of energy, patience and friendly. Great conversation and was amazing with our 4month old being on the boat. Made sure we felt comfortable and safe.

Went on an iguana hunt with Dawson a few months ago and it was 10 out of 10! He was an incredible guide and I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a hunt. He was extremely prepared, positive, helpful, and great company. He went above and beyond to ensure we had an awesome experience. He literally ran down one of our iguanas, jumped into the water after it, and lost a flip flop in the process!

My family had a marvelous time with Captain Dawson on a half day iguana hunt. Dawson was always very mindful of the safety of everyone and the spaces and conditions around us. He was pleasant to talk to and very encouraging. His boat was very comfortable too. Plus he's got a sharp eye. He is very good at what he does and we would be happy to reschedule with him and recommend him to others. We had so much fun

We booked an 8-hour iguana hunt and fishing tour. Captain Dawson was our guide and he truly helped make the experience incredible. He shared every moment of excitement, was highly engaged throughout the entire tour, and provided helpful tips and tricks to improve shooting accuracy and catching fish. Dawson’s boat and the equipment he provided was top tier. This man is so smooth when backing his boat into the water, that you shouldn’t let your wife watch. 10/10 experience and highly recommend this tour!

Captain Bobby Kimble did a great job giving the conditions of the windy weather and fish kill. Still put us on some bucket list fish. Knowledgeable of the area and attentive. We had a great time. Definitely would recommend and go out with him again.

Fishing with Capt. Bobby Kimble is always a great experience. He know just where to find the fish. Very knowledgable and polite. Highly recommended.

For Dawson Cannot say enough good things about our adventure on lake Ida with Dawson!! He put us on some nice fish in the morning and when the bite slowed, he kept the good time rolling by taking us iguana hunting!!! What an incredible man and an adventure he took us on. Highly highly recommend

Another great fishing experience with Capitan Bobby Kimble. I have been fishing with him for years and he always does his best to assure your trip will be the best possible. I highly recommend him if you enjoy fishing.

My husband and I Caught some amazing fish and I caught a personal best bass.

Cpt Bobby Kimble is a Great Lake Ida peacock bass guide. Two trips. Two great experiences.

Most Awesome Person Captain Bill is 100% down to earth, so easy to talk to and learn from. I booked a charter this past August wanting to take my daughter and her boyfriend out for a Peacock bass day. Both of them are avid largemouth fishermen in Michigan. I wanted this experience for my daughter but as Capt. Bill and I got to know each other he made it his goal to create the best possible experience for her that he possibly could. We ended up bringing over 30 Peacock in the boat along with 11 Clownfish. This was all done in a 4hr Lake Ida charter. I cannot speak highly enough about Captain Bill. We are will definitely be booking again in January when we return.

Awesome day - 5 species! We had a fantastic time with Captain Dawson. He put us on five different species, including clown knife, largemouth, mayan cichlid, and snakehead. The fish were all good size and four of us caught something. I missed a PB largemouth, but that just gives me more reason to go back :-) Dawson had a beautiful boat, top quality gear, and a friendly and knowledgeable personality. Could not have asked for more - we will definitely go again next year.

Captain Spencer was absolutely fabulous. Drove down from SC with my son for his birthday. He wanted to catch a Peacock Bass and Spencer made sure he wasn’t disappointed. Spencer was very knowledgeable and treated my son exceptionally. Definitely recommend and we will 100% be doing this again!

DO NOT LOOK ANYWHERE ELSE!!! Capt. Cody put us on the fish quickly and we had over 30 fish before we knew it. He has great equipment and knowledge of Lake Ida. He was always there ready to rebait your hook and get you back on the water.

👎 👎 👎 While we were able to catch a couple of fish and there were moments that could have been enjoyable, our experience was heavily overshadowed by our guide, Bobby Kimle. His constant smart-aleck comments and self-aggrandizing talk made the trip uncomfortable and frustrating. It felt more like an ego trip for him than a guided experience for us. This behavior took away from what should have been a fun and memorable outing. Unfortunately, we would not recommend this guide to others looking for a respectful and professional experience.

Perfect Day on the Water First time fishing for Peacocks. Bobby was awesome. His knowledge of the fishing spots and fish behaviors is on point. Getting hits in the first 5 minutes at our first stop. His boat is sick. So much room to wander and cast. Taught me some cool casting techniques and made everything smooth. So many charters out there. Glad I picked this one.

Great Fishing Great captain. Great boat & a fun fishing experience. Started catching peacocks almost immediately & plenty of them! Would highly recommend

Absolutely great day with Capt. Bobby!! Booked the afternoon before we went and Bobby was kind enough to take us out. We were in fish immediately and the entire time. Learned a lot and had a great time catching new species. Highly recommend Bobby!

Fishing with Bass Fishing Bobby is a great guide. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Will definitely Use him again.

Bucket List Completed Bobby was the perfect guide. He was helpful, teaching us the tricks of the trade. Arrived on time, all equipment was in perfect condition, had water and Gatorade on board. Like an old friend that you haven’t seen in a long time. Caught lots of fish! Will repeat.

Great day on the water!! I’ve been fishing for over 50 years, and have been on the water with a lot of guides. Bobby was great! Knew the water and the fish. My wife and I could not have asked for a better day.

May fishing trip We caught our first Peacock Bass and gained alot of information. Guide was very professional and knowledgeable.

I booked my trip through Bass Online Fishing Guides for a chance to catch my first peacock bass. I met my guide, Captain Bobby Kimble at the Lake Ida boat ramp a little before 7 for my 6 hour trip. We were greeted with an early morning shower but after that we had a beautiful day. We had a great time on the water talking fishing and getting to know each other while we chased those peacock bass. After I had missed a couple I finally connected with my first peacock and I would have called it a successful day, but Captain Bobby wouldn't let the fun end there. A few hours later, I had caught several peacock bass, a Mayan Cichlid. With our time running out I made a cast to a shady patch of over hanging vegetation with my topwater bait and had a huge explosion. After a short battle and a quick net job I had landed my first snakehead weighing over six pounds. To say the day was a success would be an understatement. I would recommend booking a trip through Bass Online Fishing Guides when you're ready to catch some fish, and if you ask for, Captain Bobby Kimble you won't be disappointed.

Best in the business. Captain Big Fush Bobby always outs us on the fish ! Super clean boat super friendly. Highly recommend.

Bucket List Fulfilled! First time in Florida with a small window to fish. I reached out to Captain Brett and reserved our 6hr trip on Lake Ida for my wife and I. Communication was simple leading up to our reservation as we met Captain Brett at the dock on the morning of. It was fun exploring the lake and its canals as we moved to the next fishing spot. Captain Brett made it too easy setting up our poles and baiting our lines. He was exactly what I expected in a guide, knowledgeable about the lake, hot spots to fish, and made us feel comfortable on his boat. We caught Clown’s, Peacocks, Largemouth, and some native Cichlids. Captain Brett is the real deal! We can’t wait to come back and fish Florida again!

Perfect Adventure! We really enjoyed our time with Capt. Spencer. He worked so hard to get us fish, and his hard work paid off. Highly recommend to anyone — new or experienced angler, young and old. It was a fun day!

Captain Bobby was great as always. We caught a number of Peacock Bass, and large mouth bass.

Bill Boliek Bill the Man ! 100 percent recommend!

Wow! One of the best if not the best guide I’ve ever fished with Captain Bobby, teaches, entertains, and won’t stop until you catch fish!!Very very patient too. 😎😎Don’t worry you’ll get your moneys worth.

4 Hour peacock trip Great time with Bill for a 4 hour trip. Drifted shiners for peacock and hooked into a several different species including a clown knifefish, snakehead and gar. Highly recommend for any experience level

Great time! Went with my sons and caught plenty fish and had an excellent time!

Great Fishing Trip Had a great time with Captain Bobby, don’t miss this one!

First Ever Freshwater Fishing Trip Fishing trip in Florida did not disappoint. Good fishing, knowledgeable Captain and the boat and gear was top notch

March fishing trip Great time, the captain, Bill, was a pleasure to meet! I have already contacted him for another trip.

We enjoyed our fishing trip with Bobby, we caught peacock bass, an unexpected clown knife fish, and other fish. He had lots of information pertaining to the area we were fishing. We highly recommend him for peacock bass, etc

Bobby was an amazing guide and put us on the fish all day. If you want to feel like you are fishing with a friend I highly recommend booking with Bobby!!

As always we had an excellent time fishing with Captain Bob Kimble. He works hard to find and help us catch them.

Lake Ida Fishing Charters Charter captain Bobby Kimble is the real deal. He’s an amazing guide with an extended knowledge of South Florida fisheries. He will put you on the fish to create memories that will last a lifetime. My dad and I caught our personal best peacock bass with him right before the polar vortex when the bite was tough. We would recommend him to anyone in the area looking to catch quality and quantity of fish.

Fishing with Captain Bill was a great experience. My 14 year old son and I caught dozens of fish each. Captain Bill put us on numerous Peacock Bass and we had numerous double hook ups! Captain Bill is very knowledgeable and happy to share tips for catching the big bass! I highly recommend Captain Bill!

Great Day on the Water with Captain Bobby Kimble Came away with a bunch of peacock bass for my brother and I as well as mayans and even an oscar. Very kind captain, was very knowledgeable of the water and put us on some great fish.

Great trip with Son Thanks to the Captain Bobby for putting us on fish on not the best day weather wise.

Fish On! There’s not a better Captain than Brett Isackson, our third trip over years was epic per usual. Unreal, actually. We always request live bait, you have the best possible chance with Brett, best memories. We tell everyone about him. Thank you Brett!

WHATVA DAY!! Captain Bill BOLIEK was awesome, put us on fish the entire 6 hours starting from our second cast. Comfortable boat, great knowledge of the water. Just an all around super guide. Looking forward to doing it again with Bill…… thanks for an epic day

We did a 4 hour morning trip. Beat everyone to a productive spot. Learned a couple techniques from the very enthusiastic captain. Fresh bait. I’m a saltwater guy. Probably the best day of freshwater fishing I’ve ever done. I think we tallied 22 fish for 2 of us. Other guy with me caught: largemouth, Mayan ciclid, several peacocks and a clown knife! In 4 hours. Moved around a lot . Nice boat. Great value. A lot of great action.

Our guide was amazing Bobby Has a really nice boat very comfortable where the seats actually moved to fit your situation. And oh yeah, he brings the quality drinks, music and comfort Also, very knowledgeable He has a gift for teaching fishing fundamentals. .I’ve been fishing for years, and I’ve learned more fishing with him Then I probably have in the last five years fishing alone. We fish for eight hours and he kept us on fish the entire time catching 6 Different species on the lake we clown fish, Snake head, Needlefish, Cichlid And oh yeah, nice big peacocks. We caught over 40 fish and had a blast one of those days that Bobby calls a ultra slam.. Thank you, Bobby for Showing us such a good time..

Fun day on Lake Ida Have wanted to fish with Cpt. Brett for some time now. Awesome day on the water, definitely checked some boxes off. He got us on Clowns n Peas right away, highly recommended!

4 hour on Lake Ida Myself and two friends booked 4 hour on Lake Ida. Both friends were catching peacocks in abundance. I had not caught a peacock all morning. I was getting frustrated when we spotted a nice peacock under a dock and Wayne said I never give up on a client or a fish. After 20 minutes of pitching under the dock I landed the first peacock bass of my life.Thank you Wayne!

This was one of my best days on the water. As soon as i started doing exactly like Captain Bobby had been telling me, FISH ON BABY! Captain Bobby was right on time and just as eager as we’re to be out there and on the fish, not to mention he was just as excited when we started catching them. He loves is job and it shows. I would highly recommend him to anyone who reads this and all of my friends and family.

Had a blast with Cpt.Bobby, definitely will be a repeat!

What a day. First I was fishing with my baby sister who I had not seem since moving to FL 2 years ago. Second, we had Cap’n Bill who is a star…great guy, personable, knowledgable and fun to fish with. Boat and gear all food stuff. Lastly, our last casts resulted in us both hooking the same fish!!! Yep, the fish ate both our shiners some 8-10 feet apart. We both reeled the fish to the boat and what a beauty…estimate to be 6 lbs! Monster for the canals!!! Check out the comparison below. Coming back again!!

Great Day on Lake Ida with Captain Brett Zac turns 12 on July 18th. He wanted to celebrate his 12th birthday in style! To mark the occasion, we embarked on an unforgettable dad son fishing adventure. We set out at 6 :30 AM with the renowned Captain Brett Isackson to conquer the waters of Lake Ida in Florida. The day was nothing short of extraordinary as we reeled in an impressive haul of 22 Peacock Bass and Gar, all while braving the fierce strikes of numerous elusive Snakeheads. It was a birthday celebration filled with excitement, skill, and unforgettable memories that Zac and I will cherish for a lifetime.

Wayne was the man had blast and good with my kids. Got the ida grandslam

Capt Wayne was excellentHe put us on the fish right awayFishing Lake Ida was greatI highly recommend this charter

Captain Bobbie Kimble was top notch! Professional, and brought us right to the spot where we caught all the Peacock Bass we were looking for. We even tried bow hunting for Tarpon… not as easy as it looks but lots of fun! We will definitely be back and request him as our guide! 5 star service!

Great Trip! My girlfriend gave me a guided trip to catch Peacock Bass and i took a friend of mine and we had a very good time! We not only caught Peacocks but 3 other species as well! Captain Bobby Kimbell was awesome. He had a great boat and knew exactly where to go and what would catch the fish. It was a great experience and i highly recommend him.

Had a great experience with Captain Bobby. He had us on fish minutes after launch, great guide explaining everything we needed to be successful. He provided high quality equipment and drinks for our day. I finally caught a peacock bass (make that many) I’ve been dreaming about since I was a kid. I’d recommend him to anyone looking to have a fun productive day fishing!

We had a great time with captain Bobby and will return.

Capt Bill was on time, knowledgeable, courteous and he put us on nice Peacock Bass. We also had a couple of shots at Clown Knife fish but pulled them off. Me and my 2 teenage sons had a blast and can't wait to come back.

I just came back from my 2nd trip out with Bobby and want to say how much I enjoyed the experience. Bobby really takes care of his customers and is also very knowledgeable!! Looking forward to my next outing with him in 2025.

Had A great day of fishing with Capt Bobby Kimball went on a 7 AM trip with Bobby had action all day with my daughter, catching her personal best A nice 5 1/2 pound bass Will definitely book again our next trip down to Florida

Great experience! I took my six-year-old son out with Bill to go fishing for Peacock bass over the weekend, Bill is the best captain I have ever met for children, the most patient, put us on Fish, extremely resourceful, I would recommend him to anyone i would Fish with him again

Best Peacock Bass Guide hands down I booked an 8 hour peacock bass fishing trip with bass online. They were very informative about the different places they fish. Because we were staying in Pompano beach they recommended I fish Lake Ida. They hooked me up with Capt. John Larsen for my trip. Capt. John reached out to me to finalize things the day before the trip. He asked questions to see what kind of fish I wanted to target. Once I told him that I wanted to mostly catch peacock bass he let me know the fishing style and what we would be doing. He made recommendations for how much live bait we needed and let me know he would have a cooler full of ice and water. We could bring other drinks and food. I showed up at the ramp and Capt. John was all ready to go. We headed to our first place. I am a bass fisherman so he only needed to explain that we needed to skip the bait under the docks and watch the line. My second cast the line jumped and started to move. I reeled down on the fish and set the hook. The fish did not move and it was like setting the hook on a rock. Then the fish just started to dig. Capt. John let me know to keep him away from the pylons and get him into open water. After a brief solid fight Capt. John netted my fish. A 2 1/2 pound peacock bass. We caught over 30 fish that day and I had the best time. Capt. John used my camera and took some shots of me and then I had him fish and took some shots of him. You need to book a trip with Capt. John Larsen he knows his stuff and puts you on the fish!!!

This was a phenomenal charter. We highly recommend Captain Bill Boliek! What a fun day catching a ton of Peacock Bass!!

Tight Lines! Capt Richard is a great guide. Had Colton and I laughing the whole trip. Comfortable is a good word to use fishing with him. Always had a new rod to grab if you broke off or made a bad cast.. Heck! We didn't even leave the dock and I had caught my bucket list fish. A giant Peacock. He even got me a top water bite. We will be back and next up on the list is the elusive Clown Knife fish. With the fast action and 30-40 Peas caught in our short time together, you will NOT be disappointed. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Thanks for the amazing day.

Sincerely,
Cole Silcox & Colton Lee

Peacock dreams came true. Captain Mike is a professional. His gear, knowledge and tactics were spot on! I fish a lot of guided trips and this one impressed me. Great day on the water.

Bass fishing No exaggeration it was none stop Peacock bass to the point I could hardly get photos if you haven't booked with Capt Bill Boliek I highly suggest you request for him to guide you. He knows his stuff and was an awesome person all around and had a very clean boat I will definitely be coming back and requesting him.

Had an awesome last minute trip with Captain Bobby on Lake Ida. Went mid day and brought in 15-20 fish, which is crazy considering the time we went, and it being not quite season. Peacock, Largemouth and Mayan Cichlids. Great captain who will put you on fish fast, and is a great guy to talk to. His boat was awesome as well, we got out to our spots in a few minutes. Would highly recommend.

Awesome Trip Bobby is a great guide! He instantly put us on fish, and he is also a very personable, nice guy! Can’t wait to do it again! Thanks, Bobby!

Fishing with Bobby Kimble Bobby is an incredible guide! Not only did he instantly put us on fish, he is also just a very personable and nice guy! He enjoyed the entire 4 hours, and he made sure we stayed in the action. Thank you Bobby! Can’t wait to do it again!

Captain Mike Groshon Took me and my husband out today peacock bass fishing on Lake Ida. We had the best time despite having to sit under a dock a couple times from the rain. Captain Mike made our day. Being a 2 year breast cancer survivor I do not take anything for granted and enjoy every minute I can. So when I told my husband I wanted to catch a peacock bass he booked us a trip and we got the best captain. Thank you Captain Mike you rock we will be back for sure.

CAPT BILL BOLIEK IS THE REAL DEAL!!! Me and a buddy got the pleasure of fishing with Capt Bill today! He is a true master, we caught fish back to back for 6 hours! I wish I could give more than 5 stars

Fish with DJ DJ was awesome fish guide.. friendly and very knowledgeable bout fishing. We scored a few nice peacock bass, Cant wait to come back next year and fish with him next yeat

Freshwater fishing Highly recommend DJ for your fishing guide! He was very accommodating, knowledgeable, and fun to spend 6 hours with! We caught tons of peacock bass, which was a blast! Thanks for a great freshwater experience!

Peacock bass fishing Levi put us on the fish! He was extremely courteous and very knowledgeable about the areas we fished. Highly recommend him

Capt. Mike Groshon is the MAN!!! My son and I fished with Capt. Mike 2 days in a row and had an amazing time. We hammered the Peacocks and caught several other species as well. Capt.Mike is the real deal. We will be fishing with him several times in the upcoming year. If you want to catch Fish look no further...Capt. Mike is your man hands down.

A Great Day of Fishing We had a great day with Captain Kimble, He is very easy going and fun. He helped us with everything, even casting my wife's pole to get her bait under the docks. We caught a lot of fish and some really good size ones at that. He is a pro! I heartily recommend him to anybody who wants to catch a peacock bass. He will get you there and you will catch fish. My wife always wanted to catch a peacock bass, even had it on her bucket list. Captain Kimble helped make that dream happen. We both walked away happy. As a side note he let us bring our chihuahua with us, even our dog had fun, a great time and well worth every penny. I could write a whole page about how great Captain Kimble is.

Peacock Bass And Lots More Booked an 8 hour trip with Bobby Kimble on Lake Ida. We were fishing shortly after a cold front and Bobby warned us the fishing might be slow, but we decided to try it, and very glad we did. Ended the day with 32 fish, including 20 peacock bass and 7 other species. We had a blast. Bobby is not only very knowledgeable about fishing, but a ton of fun to spend a day with. I'd highly recommend Bobby to anyone who loves fishing and wants to enjoy a great day on the water.

Went out with Bobby, he’s just an all-around terrific guy, and he’s a heck of a guide. He was so concerned about us because there had just been a severe cold front. But he still put us on 33 fish and we caught nine different species! The peacock bass were awesome, also caught a clown knife fish, and some Cichlid which were a bonus. I’d go out with a him again in a heartbeat.

Great fishing with Bobby Kimble Our guide, Bobby Kimble, was a Great guide. We had never been to Lake Ida, but he showed us a magnificent day of fishing for 4 hours on a glorious day, perfect blue sky, and many fish caught by Simon, our 10-year-old grandson, Simon caught 11 fish, and Bobby sent us all the pictures. One was almost 4 lbs. Bobby knew just where to go to find the fish. I learned a lot about this kind of lake fishing. Bobby was great and would look forward to another fishing trip with him as our guide. His boat was perfect for 2 anglers, and clean.

Some great Peacock fish w/Captain Wayne Fellows Planned on fishing Osborne and Ida for Peacocks with another guide and as it turned out, we wound up getting Wayne Fellows on the first day. It was my brother and me along with our 79 year old father. For us, Wayne was the perfect guide. Knowledgeable, personable, flexible, excellent boat for our needs, a good sense of humor and, most importantly, he put us on fish! He has a good feel for what different people on the boat need or want. We wound up requesting him for our second day on Osborne and that was equally successful. At that point, we decided to fish a third day with Wayne and to go with his recommendation to go to the Everglades for a different look (less size than Ida/Osborne but more fish). It wound up being exactly what he had described and was another fantastic day. Highly recommend him....great trip.

Excellent service oriented guide I booked three days of Peacock Bass fishing with Captain Tim Nichols out of Fort Lauderdale, FL in Nov., 2021. There were two of us, my adult (not teen) daughter and myself. Despite a passing cold-front, we had a great time. We boated 54 fish, mostly all Peacocks and some of them were over five pounds. We also saw lots of alligators one day which was cool.

Capt. Tim is very professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. Unlike some guides I've had, Capt. Tim did not fish. He spent his time keeping the boat in position, netting our fish, and quickly rebating our hooks. He never complained when an errant cast caught a tree. He just motored over and got us unhooked and ready to go again.

The furnished rods and reels worked flawlessly. So did his motors and other equipment. His boat is fast and there is a cooler with ice onboard. He knows the waters and even tells you which areas to focus on. One more thing, he enjoys what he does. I felt like a friend, not a customer. I have no complaints and would use Capt. Tim again, without hesitation. It is my pleasure to give him the highest review - five stars.

Drove 2 hours to W Palm beach, spent $150 on a motel to be stood up by the guide we had booked. Contacted Bass online asked if we could book a trip was told not sure if they could but came thru like a rockstar and Captain Bobby took us out last minute! He got us on the fish and we had a great time!

Some great Peacock fish w/Captain Wayne Fellows Planned on fishing Osborne and Ida for Peacocks with another guide and as it turned out, we wound up getting Wayne Fellows on the first day. It was my brother and me along with our 79 year old father. For us, Wayne was the perfect guide. Knowledgeable, personable, flexible, excellent boat for our needs, a good sense of humor and, most importantly, he put us on fish! He has a good feel for what different people on the boat need or want. We wound up requesting him for our second day on Osborne and that was equally successful. At that point, we decided to fish a third day with Wayne and to go with his recommendation to go to the Everglades for a different look (less size than Ida/Osborne but more fish). It wound up being exactly what he had described and was another fantastic day. Highly recommend him....great trip.

What a trip!! Captain Bobby took us out in Florida for Peacock Bass, he was friendly, knowledgeable and a great teacher! Would definitely recommend this trip!

Reliable and fun! John was an amazing host! He made our boat ride very fun and his boat was very well kept.. He suggested we meet in the morning instead of in the afternoon because of how hot it can get out for us and the fish. We caught a good amount of fish too! John was also prompt and reliable. If you're looking for a world class top notch service, this is the real deal!

Peacock Bass Fishing We took a fishing trip for Peacock Bass today with John Stanley from Jurassic Park fishing in Delray Beach, Florida. He went above and beyond for us and exceeded all our expectations. We caught one after the other. Great great time.

My son has been asking to go peacock bass fishing for years so we finally booked a trip for his 14th birthday. The trip was very affordable compared to some of the other guided trips we have done in the past. I am so thankful we found Captain Wayne Fellows! Lots of beautiful fish were caught and memories made. Capt. Wayne also took the time to show my young fisherman some new casting and rigging techniques and my guys said he was a blast to hang out with. I'm sure these memories will last a lifetime. Thank you so much Capt. Wayne!!

Captain Mike Groshon fishing trip My recent fishing experience with Captain Mike Groshon and Captain Bob Kimble on a second boat was fantastic. Both captains are very knowledgeable and work hard to maximize our fishing experience. I’ve used Captain Mike several time in the past and he has always been outstanding. I highly recommend both captains, they are the best.

Peacock Bass tour It was a great time I truly enjoyed myself. I think I had Mike as my guide, who was very friendly and knew all the hot spots. Pretty fish and I would definitely do it again. Very relaxed and laid back. Wear a hat and bring sunscreen!

Captain Mike is a superb captain and a great entertaining water host!! Whether you’re the novice or savant - He is a great time all the way around! The boat was big, amenities were great, knowledge was superb, and at the end of the day- We caught just about everything there was to catch! The Osborn lakes Grand Slam he called it!

Too much fun We had the best trip ever! Traveled all the way from GA and it was the best fishing experience EVER!!! We caught so many Peacock Bass that we were literally exhausted from catching so many fish. Mr. Bill was the best guide and we are so thankful that he made our trip possible and such a great success. We will be back for more soon!! Very pleased with our booking with bassonline.com. Very helpful and informative when I needed anything.

Fishing with Captain Doug My son is an avid bass fisherman (from Texas). I’m not - but wanted to take my son on a trip celebrating finishing high school and off to college in the fall. Capt Doug Kimble was our guide and was fantastic. He helped a total rookie (me) and yet coached my son on some intricacies. Caught a ton of fish while also learning a bunch. Hired him for two days and will hire him again when we go back next spring!

BUCKET LIST FISHING Hands down the best BUCKET LIST FISHING FISHING EVER!!! We had way too much fun with Captain Bill Boliek with bass online fishing guides. He was awesome, and put us on the best “honey holes ever”. I didn’t know it was possible to actually be exhausted from fishing so hard, but we were all slap wore out after 6 hours of catching hundreds of fish. We will be back soon and can’t wait for the charter.

Peacock Bass Extravaganza Captain Dave Manack was ready to go before we even arrived. He was extremely courteous, experienced, and accommodating. His sense of humor made us laugh and definitely kept us on our toes! He was diligent on finding my father and I the perfect spot for the exotic peacock bass that we flew down from PA to catch. Our four hour trip flew by quickly with the sounds of our reels screaming with another fish on the line. We walked away with a once in a lifetime experience and big smiles on our faces. You can't go wrong with this hardworking, Green Onions ringtone playing, salt of the Earth Captain! Thanks again Dave! …

Lake Ida Peacock Bass!!! My son and I went out with Captain Mike today and had a blast! Captain Mike is a professional and engaging guide. His equipment was top notch and I really liked his boat. We pulled a nice amount of fish in the boat on a day they weren’t too active.
I was lucky enough to bring in a 5+ lb peacock bass!!! I will be a repeat client and I highly recommend Captain Mike!

Peacock bass in Florida with Wayne Fellows Wayne Fellows We originally booked a six hour trip on Lake Ida. Captain Wayne Fellows suggested we change the location to the Everglades, and we are certainly glad he did. Our goal was to catch a lot of Peacock Bass, and we did just that. We also caught plenty of Oscar, Cichlid, Largemouth Bass, Gar, a couple of Pickerel, and few other types of fish too. We are definitely happy with our day on the water.

Captain Bill was awesome! My brother and I went out for a 4hr bass fishing trip. Our captain, Bill, called the night before to let us know that the largemouth bite was a little slow and offered us a Peacock Bass trip instead. We agreed and had a BLAST!! Bill was super personalable and his stories made the trip fun and entertaining. He put us on the fish! He provided all tackle and honestly just made the trip super enjoyable. My brother and I caught 50+ bass each in the 4hr trip. I highly recommend this trip and try to request Bill as your captain!

Capt Tim Nichols exceeded my expectations!!!
✅ catch a peacock bass on top water.
I caught 5 on top, 32 total!
@BassOnline @iOutdoor.com

I had a great day with Captain Tim Nicholls catching 30+ nice butterfly peacock bass. Also caught a couple bass and several oscars. The action was fast and the fish fight hard. Tim is great company and surely knows his business.

Happy a great time with Capt Happy a great time with Capt Wayne we caught Peacock Bass, Large Mouth and even a Clown Knife fish. Great day with the boys!

Had an awesome day with Captain Mike Grosgen on Lake Ida! Mike was patient and knew the lake very well, he was able to put me on some monster peacocks during tough windy cold front conditions. I highly recommend Mike if you’re considering a peacock trip!

Captain Wayne was excellent. He shared fishing techniques and provided a good fishing spot. Too cool for Rainbow bass but the clown knife fish was a bonus on top of the large mouth bass

Excellent Fished with Captain Wayne Fellows for peacock bass. He is a really good dude and knew right where to put us on the fish. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get ahold of some peacock bass.

Wayne took my 13 year old son and his 15 year old friend out for the day on Lake Ida in Delray Beach. Wayne was easy to talk with the night before. The boys caught 40 plus fish and had a really fun day! Highly recommend!

A Morning Full of Peacock Capt Mike got my son and I into fish all morning. We had an absolute blast! Couldn’t have asked for a better morning.

Peacock Paradise Capt. Wayne was very professional in his preparation and knowledge. I wanted my wife to catch her first peacock and Wayne made sure that would happen. We got to a great spot and caught a mix of peacock largemouth and even a Mayan Chiclid. Almost non stop fishing and conversation the entire trip. Great day.

With the help of Wayne Fellows, we absolutely killed it today. Two fisherman caught 78 fish in 4 hours. Tons of peacock bass & largemouth, added 2 gars & a nice clown knife. Fabulous day- highly recommended!

Peacock bass trip He was great with my son and he put us on fish! He worked with us to help with techniques. It was cold and we still caught fish.

Great trip with Captain Brett Isackson Capt Brett was phenomenal. I took my two boys, seven and 10, and they had an absolute blast. His equipment is first class as is his knowledge of local fishing. He was very attentive to my boys, talking about different fish, wildlife and just was an all round good guide, and guy. We caught dozens of largemouth, peacock, clowns and sunshine bass. We can’t recommend Capt Brett mire and look forward to our next opportunity.

Trip of a lifetime!! Went peacock bass fishing with Captain Brett I had the best time and caught fish all day!! We went to lake Ida not only did he put me on fish right away the lake was full of wild life. He knows where the fish are I wanted to catch peacock bass and less that five minutes “fish on” Captain Brett then took me to catch clown fish!! This has been the trip of a lifetime!!! Coming back very soon

Great day of fishing with Capt. Mike Groshon!! We couldn't have asked for a better day, or for more fish! He found us fish when other boats were coming up empty. We'll never use anyone else as long as Capt Mike is available.If you're wanting a relaxing day laying in the sun find someone else; if you're looking for good fish, and lots of them, then call Capt. Mike Groshon!!

He deliver, for sure. John is very friendly, have patience to teach if needed, know the place as the palm of his hand, new boat. Was able to catch many peacock Bass. What more do you want?

Lake Ida Captain Wayne Fellows put us on the Peacock Bass and we caught our limit. Had a great time on Lake Ida. Thanks Capt Wayne Looking forward to the next time .

Weekend fishing trip My son and I flew down to Ft. Lauderdale this past weekend and had a great fishing weekend with Capt. Wayne. We originally booked 1 full day on Lake Ida and 1 full day on Okeechobee. Because of not very co-operative weather our first day on Lake Ida started off late due to some heavy morning rain. We dodged showers for most of the morning hiding under bridges but still managed to catch about 25 largemouth and 5 peacock bass. I feel pretty sure we lost about the same amount. Day 2 was forecast to be sunny but very windy so he suggested we go into the everglades which we did. This turned out to be a fantastic idea. In less than 4 hours we caught a minimum of 50 fish, (when you hook one about every 3 minutes its easy to lose count) including about 15 largemouth, 20+ peacock bass weighing anywhere from 2-6 pounds, and some other local fish. We pitched shiners without bobbers and let them sink along a ledge and when we hit the spots Capt. Wayne told us to we got a strike within 10 seconds. We went through 8 dozen shiners in about 3.5 hours. Captain Wayne was very helpful in teaching us how to pitch and set hooks. We are already planning another trip. We had the best time and cannot wait to come back. Thank Capt. Wayne for an unforgettable trip.

Mike the Entertainer and can fish too !! Well fishing for over 55 years and going on many guided trips I have to say this was in my top 3. Getting Captain Mike Groshon was my lucky day. This guy was respectful,funny,very pleasent and just a joy to fish with. He really knows Lake Ida in Delray Beach Fl and all the canals. Every place we stopped we caught, when it slowed down he made his 5 minute call, which was really 15 and we moved. Another spot and caught fish immediately. We caught peacock bass, my first and several large mouth and even some Oscar. Mike is a pro, from beginning to end. Want to fish he's the man. I chose the 6 hour trip 7:00 am - 1:00 pm I got to the dock at 7:02 and Mike was there and ready with live bait (which we discussed prior ) I highly reccommand this Captain as you can see by my review. Enjoy your trip ! Marc D

Bucket list fish caught!!! Went fishing on Lake Ida wit Mike this morning. Was an awesome experience. Caught plenty of fish and some we weren’t expecting. Landed 4 species on the boat. Was an outstanding trip. I will use Mike again next trip to Florida for another amazing fishing trip.

I booked a 6 hour trip on lake ida with captain Mike Groshon. He was punctual, polite, tactical, and most importantly a beyond incredible guide. We were at a disadvantage to begin with with the very cold temperatures slowing the bite down dramatically but Mike put me on many fish and taught me so many things about how fish react to different weather and temperatures.I left catching over 20 peacock and largemouth bass. Truly an experience of a lifetime and worth every dollar and more than what you pay to fish with Mike. Will be returning again. Once in a lifetime day on the water.

Captain Mike Groshon is one of the best guides we've had: Knowledgeable about Lake Ida fishing spots, professional, friendly, willing to do what it took to make the day a good fishing day. And a productive fishing day it was! We caught a variety of fish -- largemouth and hard-fighting peacock bass, plus a couple of other species. His knowledge of birds and trees and of the lake only added to our enjoyment of the day.

Great half-day fishing with Captain Mike Groshon on Lake Ida. He put us on the fish -- he's knowledgeable, professional, friendly and did what it took to make it a good fishing day. We caught fish all afternoon, despite a cold front having recently come through. Great guide.

First Peacocks A great day with Captain Kirk. I was originally aet to fo with another captain who had boat trouble. Ioutdoors switched me iij immediately with no hassle and great communication. Not the best season for Peaxoxk bass but with the knowledge of the captain I put 8 beauties in the boat. As a bonus I also caught two largemouth and two ill Mayan chicks. Awesome day.

4 hour bass fishing I went with Capt Wayne. It's the 4th year l have been fishing with him. He always know where the bass are. I had a great time catching bass not fishing. I will always recommend Capt Wayne.

Bucket list fishing My son and I had an outstanding day with Capt Bob Miley. It seemed he could put us on peacocks effortlessly. When we had caught a ton of peacocks we asked him if we could try for some clown knives. He took us to another spot, and sure enough, we both got our knives. Could not have been a more perfect day. Capt Bob is a great guy to fish with, very knowledgeable about the wildlife and the area and just a fun guy to be with. Can’t wait to do it again.

Great bass fishing with Captain Wayne Fellows on Lake Ida We had a great day with Captain Wayne on Lake Ida on Saturday despite 20 mph winds. We had planned for Lake Okeechobee but Captain Wayne wisely suggested Lake Ida where we could hide from some of the strongest winds. Using shiners, my brother, 10 year old son and I caught 30 bass in about 3 hours - about 8 peacock and 22 large mouth. Biggest were each about 3.5 to 4 lbs. We easily lost about 8-10 others. We had a very nice time and Wayne was very helpful and engaged.

Captain Brett, our guide, was the best. Brett was professional, courteous, informative, and, most importantly, took us to the peacock bass. All arrangements and communication were handled flawlessly. Everything went as planned. Brett was patient and helpful but also focused on our fishing success. Overall a very enjoyable experience on Lake Ida and the surrounding canals. I highly recommend it.

Peacock Fun W/ Cap’t Joe Gruny Nancy. & Fished with Cap’t Joe today., fun trip slow morning, Late morning & afternoon things heated up several real nice fish! Great Bucket list fish - hard fighting & beautiful! Highly recommend Capt Joe - He knows where they live! Scott Bonnema

Morning Bass Fishing Trip Had a great time with Captain Wayne, he was very easy to talk to and it was clear he knew what he was doing! Despite getting caught up in a few trees he was very patient and always willing to help out. It was a colder morning but he still put us on the fish!

Great experience! A cold front was in place and the conditions were tough, however, Captain Mike put my wife and I on a few quality Peacock Bass. Captain Mike's passion for fishing and knowledge of the local water made the trip memorable. Thank you Captain Mike for a great day!

Glad Capt. Brett is back!!!!!!!! I just got back from another awesome 3 day trip with Capt.Brett and 2 very good friends of mine, This is my 3rd trip fishing with Brett and he put us on some big Peacocks the 1st day in Ida which was awesome but the 2nd day he took us to the big O. for Bass, I pulled in a couple of 6 pounders and then a 8.14lb tank!! Biggest fish i ever caught!! The 3rd day was not so good..weather sucked but Capt Brett worked his butt off to put us on the fish..he is a great asset to your service...I highly recommend him.

Peacock Bass Fishing on Lake Ida Spent the day with Capt Joe Gruny on Lake Ida. Great day of fishing with lots of fish and one peacock bass over 5 lbs. Capt Joe knows the spots on the canals and lake to find the trophy fish. Great day...thanks for the expertise.

My son and I had an excellent time with Captain Wayne Fellows. We caught and released 30+ peacocks plus many other fish. Captain Wayne was incredible with my 8 year old son. My son loved him and I could not appreciate more the way that Captain Wayne interacted with him and helped him. If we could give more that 5 stars we would!

Escape From New York Cold Peacock Bass fishing in Delray Beach FL was good fun. Lots of action and beautiful scenery. Captian Mike knee his way around the lake and all the canals.

Captin Dave Manack was awesome I took my nine year old daughter out to catch peacock bass. He totally catered to her and kept her in the fish. She stayed focused and caught nine peacocks one was right at 4 lbs. I highly recommend this service and request Captian Dave!

Booking the trip was super easy and professional. Also got a confirmation call the day before from the Captian.

Captain Mike Groshon is THE BEST This was a last minute trip and I booked without doing much research. Turns out this was not the best time of year to fish this area. Lots of recent rain and more coming... Captain Mike explained our options and we went fishing. Caught a total of 5 different species of fish in the 4 hrs we were on the water. Mostly Peacock bass and largemouth bass. It was a great day. Plan to head back south during the high season and fish with Mike again! Great guy, great guide, great all around!

Peacock Bass Fishing w/ Capt Mike Groshon Bass Online was easy to deal with last minute and offered a very fair Half and Full day rate. The true hero however was Capt. Mike Groshon. I think we got Bass Onlines best Guide? I took my 14 year old with me who is a good little fisherman but we were fishing docks in tight canals so doing a lot of flipping baits into tight places. We each got hung up and broke lines multiple times and Capt Mike instead of being angry about retying his 14th knot kept telling us,"if ur not getting hung up ur not fishing!" What a great attitude. I am a Marine Corps Veteran and found out so is his wife and his son currently serves Navy intelligence. We had a blast with him and he was so kind to my son I just had to reach deep in my pocket for a stellar Captains tip that was well deserved. This post doesnt offer enough room for me to tell you about what a great guide Mike was. Just know I use about 15 guides a year from fresh water to salt water to fly fishing rivers and salt water flats. Guides can be nice on the surface( they want tips) but you can tell they are a bit prickly regarding your casting or hangups etc....Mike is not that guy. Big Heart and expert bass fisherman. If you can get him...Book it!!!! Mark M

Fishing Lake Ida a very good introduction to fly fishing, excellent. great experience, I was able to catch 7 fish - which all stayed alive and were returned to the water. very recommendable.

Amazing fishing!!! We has an amazing time. Our guide was Capt Jose Carbonell, he was friendly, knowledgeable and put us on the fish we wanted to catch immediately. We had an amazing time catching a fish basically every couple minutes. Everything was taken care of by Jose and he help make the fishing easy. We were there for peacock bass and caught a bunch. Many were above the 4lb mark providing long, reel screaming fights. Other highlights were the cichlids and clown knife fish which provided tough fights when they rocket out of the water after being hooked. I would definitely go out with Jose again and would recommend his services to everyone.

@jimmy.pringles Wow. Peacock bass fishing Fort Lauderdale with Captain Mike was amazing! Great day of fishing and laughs thanks to ioutdoor adventures, peacock bass Florida!! Caught a variety of species all morning long and the action just got better and better. Good fishing with good people, can’t be beat......honestly a must do if your ever in Florida!

Peacock Bass My son and I went out with Captain Mike and had a great time. I would highly recommend using Bass online to anyone that wants to go out and have the best time fishing.

My son and I went out with Captain Mike. He shared his knowledge and showed us a great time! They had just lowered the water levels so we knew the fishing would be a bit slow and it was. However he took us to some nice spots and we were able to pull in 12 Peacock back and a few Chichlids!! He was fun to hang out with and my son and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great fishing experience! Hope to be back soon Captain Mike

Peacock bass fishing Jeff was very kind and courteous. I thoroughly enjoyed my time fishing with him. The peacock bass were awesome and I can not wait to come back and do it again .

Great Peacock Bass fishing experience with Captain Jose on Lake Ida It was a pleasure fishing with Captain Jose. It was our 2nd trip with him and he always delivers. I had my my 14 and 16 year old sons with me and we all caught large Peacock Bass and a couple of Clown Knife Fish...which can jump forward or backwards. Cant wait to book another trip with him again!

Peacock Fishing in the Everglades Bass Online, as well as Captains Mike Groshon and Wayne Fellows kept us on fish all day. Peacocks and Largemouths abounded. Great day and great guides!
