Why Lake Okeechobee is a Top Fishing Destination
Lake Okeechobee is known for having some of the best fishing and below are some of the reasons this water body is so well-regarded by bass fishermen everywhere, but you need to experience the “Big O” first hand to appreciate it fully. Lake Okeechobee is the biggest freshwater lake in Florida, sometimes called Florida’s inland sea with a surface area of 730 square miles. Its priority is controlling water levels for flood control.
Most of the flow incomes from the Kissimmee River and out down the Caloosahatchee River because the Herbert Hoover Dike surrounds the entire water body. The primary natural tributaries are Taylor Creek, Fisheating Creek, and the Kissimmee River.

How To Fish Lake Okeechobee
When fishing Lake Okeechobee, the two primary methods to fish are artificial baits or live bait, usually with wild shiners. Bass fishing with wild shiners on the “Big O” is the most popular method for many anglers going after their personal best trophy bass. It just happens that it’s the natural food that the local largemouth bass and what they feed on daily in the fishery.
Live bait
Lake Okeechobee bass fishing with wild shiners became popular many years ago when anglers fishing for largemouth bass would see the bass naturally feeding in the habitat.
It has become an increasingly popular choice because once you’ve experienced this style of fishing, you’ll quickly recognize that it’s much more than just sitting and watching bobbers. The strikes on wild shiners made by these strong game fish is an experience like no other.
Like all fishing techniques, the season is essential, and there are particular kinds of tackle and secret ways of hooking and rigging shiners to be more productive. This comprehensive guide will cover the top tips on how to fish Lake Okeechobee successfully. Still, your professional guide will be able to show you even more about the tips and techniques for the specific conditions on the day of your fishing trip.
Artificial
Many avid anglers prefer the method of using artificial lures to target trophy bass when Okeechobee fishing. When bass fishing with artificials, you have the choice of spinning, baitcasting, or fly fishing.
Flipping and pitching on Okeechobee is always really popular. Based on local fishing reports, Lake Okeechobee is still an excellent lake for topwater plugs due to its shallow depths and weedy bottom for big bass.
Tackle Recommendations
The local Lake Okeechobee bass fishing experts agree that you have different options depending on the time of day or year. Plastics baits continue to be number one for Lake Okeechobee bass fishing; they also report, more specifically, Zoom products, the fluke, the speed worm, and Brush hog. In Bass Assassin, look at using the Die Dapper and Shad Assassin. A local favorite WOW Factor shallow crankbaits, rattle traps, Zara Spook for Topwater, or something similar.
Pitching baits into Lake Okeechobee grass is the most productive technique for trophy largemouth bass. You can stock up on all your needs locally at Walmart, Marinas, and local tackle shops around most Florida lakes.

2025 Lake trip My friend Mark and I had another great couple days fishing with Captain Mark. Mark knows exactly what what the fish are doing and the tactics to catch them. I can't say enough about his ability to put you on fish. My friend and I both caught our personal best largemouth this year. This is our 7th year fishing with Captain Mark. We are already looking forward to the next trip

Bass Fishing on Head Water with Dan Dan Hamilton was so informative, kind, and responsive. He kept me informed on lake conditions the best spots to fish and put us right on bass. We have several bass within the first 15 minutes and I couldn’t even be more impressed! I also loved that he communicated with our 2nd boat captain on what we were doing and what decisions we made. He was pretty cut and dry but if you know Florida people then you know that is standard lol. Don’t use it against him because I promise he will get you bass!

Best day ever Captain Justin filled a life long dream for me. He took us out and put me and my son on more than 5 trophy fish when nobody else was catching fish. If I can go again I will only book with him. He treated us like family, THANK CAPT JUSTIN FOR ONE OF THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE.

Great Fishing Experience Me and a high school buddy of mine booked a two-day 6 hours each day cruise with Captain Justin April 1 & 2. We were both very happy with his personal service and his modern and well-maintained fishing equipment. On the first day he took us to a place where the bass fishing was exceptional. I'm guessing we caught somewhere between 30-40 bass - the biggest being a 24-inch 7 1/2-pound lunker. On the second day the winds were blowing too hard to go out on the open lake, but he took us to a sheltered place where the fishing was almost as good as the previous day. I want to say that I am a handicapped person with serious sciolous in my lower back. Captain Justin went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable and safe while travelling, boarding and exiting the boat. Captain Justin is personable and professional guide, and I would highly recommend you trust him to make your fishing date on Lake Okeechobee a memorable one.

Captain Mark Shepard True Professional! That is what you’re getting when Capt Shepard takes you fishing. What a pleasure we had taking my 11 yr old grandson on a birthday bass fishing trip. The patience and knowledge Capt Shepard shared with my grandson after just a 4hr trip will stay with him for his lifetime of fishing. After 4 hrs of difficult fishing conditions but still managing some nice fights, Capt Mark said he wanted to extend our trip an additional hour to give my grandson a chance to catch a trophy fish. What a kind offer and WHAT A GREAT CALL! My grandson was able to cap off his birthday by catching a quality lake O largemouth that dragged him in and out of the weeds and had the whole boat yelling with excitement. Just a fantastic time! Be sure to hook up with Capt Mark Shepard.

We had a great time as my brothers and i treated our father for Veterans Day!! From the beginning Captain Brett was excellent with communication and even recommended we switch from a crappie outing to bass, due to warm weather and crappie not truly in season yet. His recommendation did not fail as we caught plenty of bass!! His vessel and equipment was top notch and he was extremely courteous and provided a great guided fishing experience.

Fishing on Lake Okeechobe We fished with Kayman Mills and he was Awesome! He was very patient with us and laughed at our jokes. He is very professional but likes to have a good time also. He worked his tail off to find us fish in the off-season. The lake is beautiful and worth going just to see the sights. We’ve been chartering fishing trips all over the world and fishing with Kayman is well worth it. Of you're expecting to catch a fish on every single cast then you’ve never fished before. No matter who you fish with please be respectful. The guides are doing their best to provide a great experience for you. Don’t forget to tip well!

Mark was willing to answer any question I threw at him. A true professional. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to catch some Largemouth Bass in Lake Okeechobee. My biggest was 6.75lbs.

Great day! We had a great day on Okeechobee with Captain Justin. We threw artificials in the morning and afternoon. When the fishing hit a lull midday Captain Justin took us to a little honey hole where we hammered them with shiners. Captain Justin took great care of us all day and was just a helluva nice guy to fish with. Highly recommend a day on the lake him!!

Catching fish with Mark Rose 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!

Bass on the first cast! If you're looking to catch bass on Lake Okeechobee, Mark Rose is the man for that! My nephew and I (which I never fished with lures before) caught fish after fish from the first cast on with topwater plugs! My nephew got his PB bass that was close to 6lbs. This will become our February tradition when they come down for vacation every year. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Big "O" Giant Capt. Mark Rose provided a great day of fishing. We began the morning throwing topwater and immediately started catching em. It was exciting. Once the sun came up, I took a coffee break and watched the BASS Elites fish around us. That was a bonus to learn from the Pros. Shortly after, we started throwing flukes and BAAAAMM. I layed into an 8.41 Florida giant. Don't hesitate to book a trip with Mark.

1st time on Okeechobee Capatian Mark Rose, answered every txt & phone call promptly. Was on time for our pick up at 6am. Mark's boat is a Ranger multi species with a 350hp Mercury. Super clean and a very stable fishing platform in rough water. Mark had his work cut out for him. The evening temps were cooling the lake & bite down. Despite the conditions I was able to boat 7 largemouth. My wife also enjoyed the day with Mark & I. Mark kept me a cast away from the fish & she finished her book! We look forward to our next outing with Mark.

1st time on Okeechobee Capatian Mark Rose, answered every txt & phone call promptly. Was on time for our pick up at 6am. Mark's boat is a Ranger multi species with a 350hp Mercury. Super clean and a very stable fishing platform in rough water. Mark had his work cut out for him. The evening temps were cooling the lake & bite down. Despite the conditions I was able to boat 7 largemouth. My wife also enjoyed the day with Mark & I. Mark kept me a cast away from the fish & she finished her book! We look forward to our next outing with Mark.
Capt Mark Rose Excellent Great morning fishing Okeechbee, numbers and size. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Will ĺook him up when we are up on lake Erie this summer.

Great Day Fishing! 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.

Cold day in Florida Was out bass fishing with Capt. Mark Rose yesterday. Being I was down in Florida I was hoping for a nice warm sunny day of fishing. Mother Nature had a different idea. It was 50F with 22 mph winds. Despite the conditions Mark did a great job of still getting me on the fish. His new 622 Ranger boat handled the waves great and kept us dry and I was able to land a new personal best largemouth.

Two fabulous days Thoroughly enjoyed our two days with Captain Mark. We were both total novices with bass. We used artificial worm, fluke, poppers and live bait, under the guidance of a very knowledgeable and patient captain. Caught lots of very decent sized fish and had so much fun. The banter was great and the day went so quickly. Will definitely book again. Thank you so much!

Big Wind - Big Bass A cold front came in right before the day trip I had scheduled months prior. Forecast of 15 to 25 mph winds. I was concerned the long awaited trip would be canceled. Contacted Mark and he was confident the trip would be on.
He was right. He was smart about not getting too far out and onto fish. His boat was amazing. Large Ranger that was the most stable, smooth running fishing boat I have ever been on. I never once felt we were in an unstable situation despite the high winds.
Mark got us onto big bass…every bass was the size you might catch once in a week in lakes in Canada. My forearms hurt after reeling in these bass!!
Mark has the boat, gear, and knowledge to put you in a position to catch amazing smallmouths. It’s up to the fisherman from there but he puts the odds of success in your favor!

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. read moreread less

Capt Mark puts you on fish! I called mark the night before I wanted to book a trip. Mark explained to me that Erie was slow at the time with very few fish being caught and recommended another body of water nearby. Boy was his recommendation right! It was nonstop action all day. If you want to catch fish and do it with comfort, then do it with mark and his 22 foot ranger. Smooth ride to the hole, boat handles chop in the water flawlessly and provides the best fishing platform of all bass boats. Book with capt mark you won’t regret it!

Not happy at all I booked a shiner fishing trip for March 2 on the big O. I opted for a trip out of Clewiston with Mark Rodgers. NEVER AGAIN! I specifically stated shiner fishing because we don't do that at home and my wife likes it. We spent an easy one third of our time launching and going to buy bait. It was clear after we started the guide does not like shiner fishing. He seemed to have no honey holes in mind just random stops. I wasted my money. I have fished with a lot of guides over the years but none like this one. Zero personality and not fun. Very disappointed in the trip. I think I could have done better on my own. I fish about 80 to 100 days a year and if not for the logistics involved would have done just that.

The perfect guys trip Had a guys trip, booked Captain Mark Shepard and captain Mark Rose. Both of these guys worked their butt off to keep us rolling in the fish. Both days we caught 40 fish per boat in January! We pulled tons of 3-4 pounders. Several 5 pounders and a couple of 6. These guys even stayed an extra hour on the last day cause we were still hot. Fishing is boring catching is fun, come have fun with these guys, you won’t regret it.

Both days we caught 40 fish per boat in January! We pulled tons of 3-4 pounders. Several 5 pounders and a couple of 6. These guys even stayed an extra hour on the last day cause we were still hot. Fishing is boring catching is fun, come have fun with these guys, you won’t regret it.
Ripping lips all day! I had an amazing time Bass fishing with Captain Mark Rose and Mark Shepard. Both of them are true professionals. We fished 2 days back to back each 8 hour trips. We were hooked up on Bass right away and it lasted ALL DAY! They did NOT disappoint! I can’t wait to come back.

AWESOME!!! BOOK A TRIP WITH CAPT MARK ROSE! I booked a 2 day bass fishing trip on Okeechobee for my daughter and I and we had a great time catching large mouth bass. Mark knew exactly where to take us to catch them. The second day was forecasted to be colder so Mark offered to take us to the Falls near Miami and fish for Peacock bass. What a blast...he went above and beyond to make sure we caught fish and had a good trip. I highly recommend fishing with Mark. We will be back! read moreread less

Two delightful days We had two delightful days fishing with Captain Mark Shepard on Lake Okeechobee. Captain Mark was on time early in the mornings and got us on the water and fishing in the right spots quickly. It was very obvious that Captain Mark knew the lake and the good fishing spots. There had been a big bass fishing tournament the weekend before we went but he was still able to put us on a lot of fish. This was an early Christmas present for my step-son, Thomas, and we both had a blast. Unfortunately for Thomas, I took his money for the biggest fish, ha, ha. I would recommend Captain Mark to anyone who wants to be successful bass fishing the lake.

Captain Mark Sheppard was the best! Put us on fish during a very windy day. He knew the sheltered coves and grassy areas. We started catching fish almost the minute we dropped in a line. Captain Mark was great to talk to and gave us advice on catching the clunkers. I highly recommend him and certainly have a return trip! read moreread less

Bass fishing better from Dec - April at Lake Okeechobee very nice guy and tried his best to take us to places to catch some bass but it was the wrong time of the year and the wrong weather; nothing he could have done about it; but it would have been nice to have been told up front when booking that the fishing during June-Sep is really slow; read moreread less

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.

What an Amazing day of Fishing I just wanted to say thanks to our guide Capt Mark Rose for an awesome day of fishing while out in FL. I took my entire family which included my two daughters 7 and 9. They still cant stop talking about all the fish that they caught that day. Mark was really patient with them and I think between the two of them they caught a total of 32 fish in 4hrs!! I also would like to give a shout out to Capt Joe. He was out there with another family and he allowed us to take over a really awesome fishing spot and moved his group out of the way for us as they had already caught plenty of fish. Guys I cant thank you all enough. This is something my family will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Great experience and fun family day We decided last minute to go freshwater fishing. It started out a bit rainy but then cleared up and we caught lots of fish. Captain Rob was helpful, encouraging and fun. He taught us a lot about bass and the area. He was easy going and nice to our 10 year old son. Great day!

I brought my 6 year old son Tyler for the final day and he had a blast catching 20 fish and having a great time. He thinks Captain Rob is the best and loves going out on the water with him. Captain Rob entertains him with story’s and talks about the lake and wildlife. We both would recommend him to anyone looking for a great trip.

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.
My husband and I came down for a two day fishing trip with Captain Mark Shepard at Lake Okachobee. The weather wasn’t the best but we had a blast. Mark called to talk with us the day prior. He picked us up at the hotel each morning. He took pictures of the fish we caught and sent them to us at the end of each day. We HIGHLY recommend! read moreread less

Annual Bass fishing David Lauer did a great job helping my 85 year old father onto the boat and finding the fish. The Bass online outfit is a top notch above board operation. No cash only policy and no overcharging for bait either like we have experienced in the past with other so called guides.I do think David was steering all the big bass towards my dad! LOL
My dad and I will be back again next year!

Slow fishing We went out at six in the morning on Okeechobee. I fish regularly in Ohio and i only caught 3 bass by 11:30 when we decided to leave. Not worth the money in the summertime. read moreread less

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. read moreread less

Good Trip, Great Captain Myself and two of my sons (15 and 19) went on a 4 hour bass fishing charter with Captain Rob on The Big O. Although we only caught 10 or so fish, the personality and knowledge of Captain Rob Alfano made it a good experience. He picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel we were staying at. He joked and chatted with my boys effortlessly and made the trip more enjoyable for them. He also knew the lake well and led us to fish, however the conditions were not in our favor as the water neared 90F and the wind made it difficult to fish the islands correctly. He even asked to pick us up at 6am rather than 7am as to allow more time for prime fishing. Great guide, would recommend Captain Rob and fishing Okeechobee to anyone. read moreread less

Bass in the Everglades Captain Mike Groshon is the man. We had a trip booked for Lake Okeechobee, but some poor fishing conditions came up in the weeks before our trip. Mike was honest and upfront, and told us that we would be better off doing an Everglades trip. So glad we listened, because between the three of us, we caught over 250 largemouth in 8 hours (and thatâs an honest count from everyone on the boat). Fishing was incredible, and on top of that, Mike was a pleasure to fish with. It was clear that he was committed to putting us on fish and having a fun day on the water. I canât recommened this trip enough. read moreread less

Our first time on the BIG O Captain Galen Fugh took me, my brother and uncle out on a split day and was it ever a good time. He had us on the fish in the first 30 minutes and we were catching them all day. The bite may have slowed a little in the afternoon but the fun was all day long. The mid day lunch break was a perfect way to load up on some good food and drinks before we got back at it. Galen even took the time to get us up close and personal with some huge gators. The only down side was when my brother hooked a snake and almost brought it in the boat. I was ready to jump in with the fish. LOL! Can't say enough about how much fun we had and how worth it it was to have such a quality guide like Galen. I highly suggest giving these guys a call for your next trip down.

First time on the Okeechobee Being from NY, I didn't want to waste time trying to figure out such a huge body of water. Back in February Galen Fugh took care of that by putting us, my brother and Uncle were also on the boat, on the bass all day long. We did the split day and caught fish in the morning. We enjoyed a nice lunch at the marina to fuel up for the afternoon and went right back to it. The afternoon proved to be just as much fun. If you only have a small window of time, Galen is the man you want taking you out. We can't say enough about how friendly and helpful he was. I will be giving him another call next time we head down so we can enjoy another day on the water.

Fishing with Capt. Mark Rose We are 2 Dutch brothers who went to Florida for a week of fishing. We had not a lot of luck so far, until we went with captain Mark Rose for a fishing trip. It was amazing! We caught a lot of basses including some big ones! An amazing experience we'll never forget, worth every penny! Mark is a really good guide, he learned us a lot of tricks. The day after it we tried those tricks from the bank ourself and it worked as well with succes!! Thanks Mark Rose! Mayby till next time! Jonny & Michel

Okeechobee adventure I'm a guy from Canada who loves to bass fish but gets to go out 5-10 times a year. I had the opportunity while in Florida to fish a lake that's in my top 3. Booking the trip was easy, everyone was really nice, my guide was amazing we just happened to get a really crappy day. The only reason I gave a 4 star rating is for the cost. Coming from Canada with our dollar it made the trip quite expensive and with the addition of live bait it got up there. Plus the live bait caught the most. I'd definitely say if you have the chance go for it but budget accordingly! read moreread less

Okeechobee Bass fishing Enjoyed our time fishing on Okeechobee and our captain Mike. While we didn't catch as many bass as we would have liked but that's fishing and still had a very enjoyable day.
Captain Mark was great! Tough bite due to weather, but Captain Mark kept it fun. Very professional service which was greatly appreciated.

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.

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. read moreread less

Excellent Trip I fished with Captain Rob Alfano on probably one of the toughest days of the year thanks to a cold front. He was an excellent guide and put me on fish despite the cold. Felt like fishing with an old buddy! read moreread less

A day you will never forget Went out with Capt Mark Rose out of Clewiston Fl. (bassonline.com) to enjoy the day and catch some bass. To say catch some bass was a understatement! We caught around 35 bass in 4 hours and caught two fish that I will never forget. One 7 lb and one 9 lb bass!! Lets just say after hauling in 35 bass my arms were a little tired! We had several bass in the 3-5 lb range and several double hook ups! My two boys did not want to come with (too boring) needless to say they missed out on a great adventure. If you are coming down to the area this is a must fish lake! Mark is a great guy very personable and and knowledgeable about the lake Thanks Mark for putting us on these awesome fish!!

Good Time Booked a fishing trip to celebrate my father and sonâs birthday. The booking process was easy and they were able to accommodate 4 people which is not easy on a bass boat and and worked with our needs. The captain was knowledgeable, friendly and tried his best to make sure we had the best experience. Although the fish werenât bitting as much as we hoped, 17 in 4.5 hours kept us happy. I would strongly recommend Captain George! read moreread less

Bass Fishing with Dave Lauer 3 of us fished with Dave Lauer at Lake Okeechobee, met at Slimâs Marina for bait and launched at the boat ramp nearby. We were in the boat leaving the boat ramp at the crack of dawn and we fished all morning and caught a lot of fish. So many, we lost track of the count. Each of us caught at least one bass over 4 lbs, one of us caught one about 5 lbs and all of us caught at least 6-8 bass and several channel catfish. We caught fish nearly non-stop and really didnât have time to eat lunch. Fishing with Dave was like fishing with a family friend, he was comfortable to fish with, funny and he really put us on the fish. Any time Iâm bass fishing near Okeechobee Dave Lauer is the only guy Iâll go with. Heâs a confident pro and knows bass. All of us said his was our best day of fishing- ever. Hereâs one the the biggest bass my son caught. What a day!! read moreread less

Great Okeechobee Bass Fishing Trip We visited during late July/early August, which as we learned is also the toughest fishing of the year on Okeechobee due to the heat. In spite of the tough conditions, our guides Mark & Dave were able to put both boats onto great fish. We caught in excess of 30 bass, and were even able to land one over 5lbs! Incredible trip, great service, knowledgeable guides, great gear and boats. read moreread less

A Great Experience I have fished in New England a lot but wanted to see what was so special about Okeechobee. My fiance got us a gift certificate for a guided trip with bass online. They were very easy to book with and when our trip was cancelled (death in the family) they worked with us to reschedule when we made up our trip a few weeks later. Our rescheduled trip turned out to be bad storms so again they flexible and accommodated us the next morning. Once we arrived Capt. Mike Groshon gave us great advice as to what would give us our best odds of catching fish. He put us on a great spot and my fiance and I were pulling them in right away. He is a very nice guy and I enjoyed talking with him over out on the water. Lake O is beautiful and very different than anything I've fished up north. I really enjoyed my trip and will do it again, with Capt Mike if at all possible!

Challenging but rewarding Captain Mark Rogers was great, he knew I preferred to fish artificial baits, and equipped with that information, he navigated us into the grass where the morning bite was good. When that began to taper, he was quick to move our location in an attempt to find the fish amidst the glaring mid day sun. He was a great source of knowledge and had no qualms about sharing it (I asked A LOT of questions). To wrap up the day, we spent the last hour or so winding down fishing shiners, while being accompanied by a family of Manatees, who seemed to be intrigued by our presence, as they were within inches of the boat at times. The day climaxed when I landed a monster 7.5 pounder! I will not hesitate to book with Mark again in the future. read moreread less

Walt Allison and walter Allison jr. Let me first start off by saying are guide Capt. Dave Lauer was top notch. We booked 3 trips had Dave for all 3 trips. 2 On okeechobee n 1 On lake Osborn. We learned which in hind sight I already knew I should of book the trip in Jan or Feb. but on are first day in the first hr my son caught an 8.2 pound large mouth n I caught an 8 pound even. Plus plenty of 3,4, n 5 pounders. The trip on lake Osborn was slow. Something going on in the lake. Lots of dead fish but we were still able to catch are first peacock bass n first clown knife and a needle fish. Peacock bass fight tremendously. Biggest weighing 5 or 6 pounds. What a great trip. Will definitely use this service again. I personally recommend this out fit. Top notch service. All about our fishing experience n satisfaction. Dave went way above and beyond to make are trip a success. Which I might add it was. If u want to know if Iâm experienced enough as a bass fisherman to make these bold statements about this trip just visit my fb page n look at my pictures of my New Jersey catches. Fishing is one of my passions. I wanted a 10 + pounder but didnât get it but I did get an 8 pounder and I donât know how many people can make that statement. I was told are pics were up on this website but I havenât located them yet. Again I personally recommend this outfit and my experience with Capt. Dave Lauer was to say the least was top notch. If ur planning a trip to fish Florida I implore u to get in touch with this outfit. I will request Capt. Dave Lauer again. Thanks again Dave. U made the trip of a father and son team a trip of a lifetime with memories n fish stories to share for the rest or are lives with are family. Again thank you. read moreread less

Mark Rose I recently booked a family trip for my dad, brother and myself with Mark Rose on lake erie 5-12-18. We booked way and advance and were dealt some bad weather on the day of the trip. We woke up to 40 degree temperatures and severe storms closing in. An hour into our day we got chased off the lake by lightning. Mark was great about it and from the safety of shore we decided to wait it out. After some early lunch and killing time in a local sporting goods store, we got back on the water in the early afternoon and he put us on the fish. All together we caught 40 small mouth all 3 to 5 pounds. The biggest, and my dads personal best, was 5 pounds 9 ounces. What started out as a bad dream ended up as a great day of fishing. Id like to thank Mark for sticking it out through the storm and putting us on some great fish. If you looking for a great lake erie small mouth trip call Mark Rose. Justin. read moreread less

Capt Dave Lauer BEST fishing EVER! Capt Dave Lauer knew all the hot spots. We could not reel them in fast enough. Capt Dave has a great personality, professional and extremely knowledgeable.

Amazing Experience Capt Brian Brown put us on a honey hole. It was non stop action for the first 2 hours. My Dad and I had the time of our lives. We put two bass over 8 lbs in the boat and multiple 4,5 and 6 pounders. I highly recommend Brian Brown- a true gentleman and even better guide. I’m so glad we decided to do this. Memories for a lifetime and highlight of our vacation.

Lake O bass Booked a charter the other day with Capt Mark Rose and happy we did. Normaly I fish offshore, but Mark was easy to get to and thought it would be a good Bday gift for my friend. Mark said he had a slow morning, and wasn't sure how it was going to go... Within 20 mins of setting up we were hooked up on Bass. Since never been Bass fishing, Mark talked me through it and we brought 95% of bites back to boat. Was a fun afternoon and Mark did a great job. Can't wait until next year to try again..

Captain Brian Brown We (70 year old grand parents and an eight year old grandchild) went out on a four hour afternoon charter with Captain Brian Brown. We caught 16 bass and lost almost as many as we caught due to lack of experience - everyone caught at least one four pound or larger bass. Capt. Brown was knowledgeable, personable and quite helpful with those of us who hadn't fished before. read moreread less

Great fishing Lake O My wife, 2 teenage sons and I had a great afternoon fishing Lake Okeechobee with Captain Mark Rogers. He had a nice boat that fit us all and he was very fun to fish with. We fish for Bass in Michigan, but mainly with artificial bait. We fished Lake O with Live bait. It was different, but fun. Capt Mark took time to teach us how to hook the big bass. We fished multiple spots to keep the action going. We caught enough to make us want to go back and we will definitely go with Capt Mark again. read moreread less

A Great Afternoon Trip We booked a 6 hour afternoon trip with Captain Rob Alfano during our short Florida Spring Break Trip. (April 4, 2018) We had an absolute blast with Captain Rob. My wife and 10 year old son, both caught their personal bests on our trip. Little man boated a solid 7 pound largemouth, with Mom coming in a close second with a 6 pounder. Guessing we caught 20 in total for the afternoon. We will definitely be back!

Great experience Iâve lived in South Florida now for 13 years and never fished on Lake O. I booked this trip with Capt Mark Rose and he exceeded my expectations and took us out and put us on some monster bass. Iâve heard this Lake had some of the best bass fishing in the country and now I can confirm it. We caught nearly 30 fish in our 4 hour trip. One bass was 7.94lbs, one was 6.8lbs and several others in the 5-6lb range. If youâve never fished on this Lake, youâre missing out. I highly recommend Mark Rose as your guide, heâll put you on some very nice fish. Thanks again for the great experience. read moreread less

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. read moreread less

Okeechobee Went out with Capt Mark Rose. Things were slow at first due to wind and cold water Mark kept trying his best and even offered to cut trip short if we wanted. Then winds died down and water temp rose a bit and things got better. Knowledgeable and a nice guy. Would recommend .

Incredible fishing My buddy and I met our Captain Brian Brown in Clewiston Fl at the Jolly Roger Marina for 7AM. After a quick discussion, we went and launched at the boat ramp next to the on Hoover Dike Rd. In about five minutes we were in the boat and onto Lake Okeechobee fishing. Captain Brian Brown was AWSOME! He took us right to where the fish were and with in a few minutes we were on nice large mouth bass. Captain Brown was very knowledgable of where to drop our bait, different ways of presenting it and helping us set the hooks the correct way. My buddy and I had an absolute blast with Captain Brian Brow, and would recommed him to anyone that wants to have a great day of fishing. read moreread less

Had a blast Captain George put us on the fish. Had a great time. Very relaxing. Wives this is the way to be introduced to fishing. You donât have to bait the hook or take them off your line. No fights with hubby and he can do his own thing. You will love pulling in the big one with him in the boat! Thanks Captain George. read moreread less

why book Capt. Mark Rose? I picked a cool day after a near freeze to book my first guide. not the best choice. I picked Capt Mark Rose. the best choice. he had me on fish right away and kept me in action all day despite the fact that few others we talked to or saw were catching much of anything. my experience on Okochobee was so positive that I will travel to lake Erie this spring to fish with Mark again. if you can only book one guide this year, make sure it's Capt. Mark Rose. read moreread less

Captain Rob Alfano I went out on a trip with Captain Rob on Feb. 3rd. We had my 5-year-old son Tyler and our friend's 10-year-old son Peyton with us. They were so excited to catch some fish.

They had a blast catching fish and joking around with Captain Rob he is awesome!!! Thanks, Captain Rob from our whole crew!!!

Crappie fishing on Okeechobee lake We started our fishing trip on 2/30/18 with CAPT Brain with weather conditions that required a professional touch to catching fish and Brain did a first-class job with us catching large crappies.

Best guide ever On January 18, I got to fish with Captain Mark Shepard. The weather was not good that day with wind chills in the 20's and winds to 25 mph. Capt. Mark came to fish dressed like he had an upcoming audition for "Life Below Zero." We discussed not going out, but Mark was determined to make his customers happy with the fishing experience. With nobody else on the lake or in the boat launch parking lot, we went fishing. As expected, I didn't catch as many fish as normal, but nothing stopped Mark from making sure we caught some. I cannot ask for a better guide or a commitment to serve a paying customer. The whole organization, Bass-on-line, and its captains just can't be beaten. I would use their services always and will never be disappointed

I had the pleasure of having Captain Wayne as our guide. He has a wealth of knowledge and is very professional at what he does, and a plus is that he makes sure you have fun!!!! Besides catching the BIG Bass of the day :) I would have had a great time even without it. I look forward to going back this year and I would want to have Captain Wayne as my guide again.

He was extremely knowledgeable about his job and very passionate. He made sure we had the best possible time, and directed us as to what would end up being a great fishing day for bass! We have never caught so many in one day! It was awesome, and we look forward to returning next year to fish with Capt Mark Shepard!

This is why you need a good guide Captain Dave found out very quickly with the cooler weather that day that areas that worked great in prior days were very slow ... so he went to at least 10 different areas before we started to consistently hit good fish.

Cold Front not a problem. On the morning of my trip it was only 41* even a bit chilly of this Minnesotan. I fished with Capt Mark Rogers. He was everything one could ask for. On time, very friendly, his boat and gear were in perfect working condition and he put me on fish. We fished with live shiners something I have never done before. This also was my first time in Florida and a first for the BigO. Mark put me on fish right away. I caught a lot of bass and I also caught a 5 lb. catfish. My biggest bass was a nice 5+ not what I was looking for but two of the fish I lost bringing them to the boat were exactly what I was looking for. Mark did everything in his power to try and get the monster I was looking for. I had a wonderful time Mark was very knowledgeable about the lake and the surrounding area. I didn't know they burned the cane fields before they harvested. I would recommend Capt Mark Rogers for your fishing adventure. I will sure ask for him on future adventures.

Cold front was'nt a problem. On the morning of my fishing trip it was only 41* even a little cold for this Minnesotan. But that wasn't going to be a problem, not much different than springtime fishing at home. I fished with guide Mark Rogers. He was everything anyone could ask for. On time, very friendly and most of all knew where the fish were. (I did get a giggle about all the clothes he wore to go out, bibs parka, hat and face mask) But he isn't from Minnesota so he gets a bye on that one. His boat and gear were all in perfect working condition. We fished with live shiners. I had never fished with them before, this also was my first time in Florida and fishing the BigO. The action was almost nonstop. I caught a lot of bass and I even caught a 5 lb. catfish. My biggest bass was a nice 5+ not really what I was looking for but two of the fish I lost coming to the boat were sure the ones I was looking for. Mark was great to fish with very knowledgeable about the lake and things around the surrounding area. I would recommend using him for your fishing adventure.

amazing two days of fishing!!! Captain Mark Shepard gave my two 14 year old boys two amazing full days of fishing! They caught so many fish down in Clewiston Florida that we lost count! Captain Mark kept these boys laughing and entertained and gave them 100% of his attention! Both boys caught their personal best 8 1/2 and 7 3/4 lb bass! I highly recommend bassonline! This is our 2nd year with them and will definitely use them again! We were not even out of the parking lot and these boys were begging me to plan another trip here with them! Thank you Captain Mark for making this trip an amazing one! read moreread less

So much fun We purchased 1/2 day on Okeechobee as a Christmas gift for our 16 year old grandson. It was perfect. Captain Rob Alfano was skilled, knowledgable, and helpful. I'm so glad he recommended using live bait. Between the three of us we caught over 20 bass. The biggest, caught by my grandson, tipped the scales at 6 lbs. We plan to go again on the grandsons next visit from Virginia. read moreread less

Lake Okeechobee with Captain Dave Lauer We had two fun, productive days on Lake Okeechobee. Dave Lauer put us on fish right away, and then the action never stopped. We fished both live and artificial baits, with the live bait outperforming (worth the cost). I highly recommend Dave if you are looking for a fishing guide. read moreread less

3 days of Okeechobee Slaunches Just spent 3 days on the water with Captain Brian Brown with BassOnline with my 2 boys (8 and 5) we had three action packed days catching approx. 150 fish and averaging 1 fish every 8 minutes. Captain Brown is a superb captain and great person to spend a few days with. I have fished with him in the past and was very fortunate to be able to fish with him again. He worked really hard for me and my boys to have 3 very successful days when others were not doing so well around us.

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! read moreread less

Best Guide Bass Online's Mark Shepard is the best guide I have ever used. I have been fishing for 65 years. I've been using guides for 30 years. Mark is by far the best. He knows Lake Okeechobee like it was his living room. When conditions are bad Mark will figure out something different to find the fish. Last week I fished with Mark on Okeechobee for 3 days. I had a friend with me for 2 of the days. In total my friend and I caught 202 bass in 3 days. The biggest was 8 pounds and we had several 5-7 pounders. There was a big tournament on the lake on the first day. Most of the tournament anglers were fishless. Mark figured out what to do and we caught 57 bass that day when most people never got a bite. Too bad we weren't entered in the tournament. read moreread less

Bassin' Okeechobee I just spent 2 days [Nov.04&05],2017 fishing Lake Okeechobee with Capt. Mark Shepard and my fishing partner, Jim Robertson. It was the two most phenomenal bass fishing days I have ever had. Mark's knowledge of the lake and the fish's whereabouts is unbelievable. He put us on fish. We caught 56 bass on day one, and 94 bass on day two. I caught one eight pounders, one five pounders, and too many in the four-pound range to count. In addition to his fishing knowledge and skills, Mark is a gentleman, easy to get to know, and enthusiastic about your having a good time on his trip. If you want the ultimate bass fishing experience - you have to go out with Mark Shepard.

Bass Bonanza I’ve fished Lake Okeechobee most of my adult life. I flew in from Atlanta this week and booked an impromptu bass fishing trip with Captain Lauer. It’s been too long since I had so much fun! Dave not only knew where to take us; his professionalism was only eclipsed by his fun-loving personality. The weather couldn’t have been better and we boated more large-mouth bass than we imagined possible. Dave’s passion for fishing is complimented by his genuine knowledge of local history and his quarry. Money WELL SPENT! A memory not soon forgotten and a source for bragging to any non-believers.

Captain Dave Lauer Captain Dave was absolutely wonderful. He was patient, knowledgeable, and funny. He not only was prompt and considerate of our time, but he put us on the fish. We took the trip for the birthday present for a 14-year old that loves bass fishing. We probably caught 50-60 bass without largest around 5.5 lbs. It was a trip of a lifetime. I would highly recommend Capt. Dave Lauer. If we get to come back he is the one I will book with again. Captain Dave thank you for making this a memorable experience.

Half day with Dave Lauer What a great day on the lake. Dave put us on the fish from the time we left the dock to the time we returned. I didn't expect a lot in August, but it was an overcast, breezy day and my son and I caught the heck out of the fish. If we were in a tournament, we would have been in the money..no problem. Dave is a really great guy and his knowledge of the lake and bass habitat are awesome. His personal experience as a pro is a real plus and got us to the best baits quickly... The trip was as good as it gets...everything was right. We will be getting with Dave again the next time in So. Florida. read moreread less

The Big O with Capt. Mike Lake Okeechobee has been on my bucket list for years. Capt. Mike Gorshon delivered one of the best days on the water me and my wife have ever had and we spend a lot of time on the water. He was a joy to fish with and put us on some Okeechobee monsters. Above all else, he was personable and professional. If you're coming to south Florida book a trip with Capt Mike. You won't be disappointed.

Mark Shepard the best guide in the world I have been bass fishing for 60 years. I have fished all over the world. The best guide I have ever used is Capt. Mark Shepard. He knows how to find the bass on Lake Okeechobee. On my 69th birthday he put me on an 11lb 3 oz bass, the biggest of my life. I have used mark for 10 years and will continue to go to Florida every year to fish with Mark. I should'nt give him such good reviews so he would be available more often for me but too many people already know how good he is.. If you call BASS ONLINE and can't get Mark don't worry. Ask your guide to call Mark to find out what the fish are doing. All the guides at BASS ONLINE work together to make sure you have a great time. read moreread less

Okeechobee in the summer My son and I fished Okeechobee in late June on a still, sunny morning with Captain Brett Isackson. In 4 hours we landed 30 bass, one of which was almost 10 lbs. It was incredible, the quality of fish was great and Captain Brett could not have been better. If you want a great experience call and ask for Captain Brett Isackson. read moreread less

Probably my best day of fishing ever -- No REALLY -- ever. I've been using Bassonline for many years now and their guides have always put me over fish every single time. Not every trip produces the kind of numbers and bag weight i enjoyed this trip but every trip is pure joy for the serious or even just recreational bass fisherman. This trip Captain Mark Sheppard showed his skill and experience finding not just lots of fish but big ones. had over 75 fish in the boat with half a dozen over 5 pounds, at least a dozen over 4 and just a handful under a pound. This while others fished around or near us getting next to nothing. Captain Mark gets full credit for this marvelous day of fishing. I will definitely be back! read moreread less

Fished lake okeechobee for the first time yesterday. The lake is absolutely fantastic. Wide open with so many areas for fish at. I give it a 4 star cause of the lake. Unfortunately, i wasn't able to land that big one or even catch one worth taking a picture with. The water was very dirty where we fished at. Not being familiar with the lake, not sure if this had anything to do with the fish not to bite.My guide was great. He's knowledge about the lake helped me learn about this place. I look forward to coming back during the spawn season. At least the alligators gave us a show. read moreread less

Okeechobee Guides Mr. Lauer was fantastic. I fish every chance I get, and Mr. Lauer showed us the difference between a weekend warrior and a pro. He was awesome. Helpful with the family, and put us on the fish. Absolutely no down time, someone had a fish on pretty much the entire trip. Thank you Mr. Dave. Ill be scheduling another trip very soon.

Exploring Lake Okeechobee By Foot
You must consider that if you are exploring a fishing trip to Lake Okeechobee, Florida, for the first time, traveling on foot is concerning. However, if you have naturalized all parties with the terrain, fishing on foot from the shoreline can be a way of identifying the extent of the lake’s serenity.
There are infinite alternative areas for bank fishing, and these are the grassy banks, concrete walkways, fishing piers, and so on, which can be found by searching fishing reports online. Favorably for you, these points are fishable and walkable. However, you should also be aware that fish aren’t the only things that inhabit Okeechobee waters.
Build a Travel Guide for your Trip
The sunshine state is known for its famous Florida gators, and this is why it is advisable to find a destination to fish from piers or local boat ramps with docks. It should be safety first before your next Lake Okeechobee fishing adventure. Given that Lake Okeechobee is home to numerous freshwater game fish species. Anglers can catch mostly bluegill, crappie, speckled perch, and largemouth bass while bank fishing. Bank fishing from anywhere in freshwater requires a Florida fishing license and despite what you read, there are no peacock bass or smallmouth bass in Okeechobee.
About Lake Okeechobee
The Seminole Indian name Lake Okeechobee means “Big Water.” A proper name for the largest freshwater reservoir in the United States, occurring entirely in one state. The Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission state, “there is no place that can compare with Lake Okeechobee, not only for lunker largemouth bass, history, and wildlife but its size.”
History
Lake Okeechobee is about 37 miles long by 30 miles wide, with an average depth of only 10 feet. To fishermen nationwide, it’s renowned for the number of largemouth bass it has per acre. Lake Okeechobee produces more trophy bass over 7 pounds than any lakes in Florida and arguably the entire United States.
Lake Okeechobee is positioned in central southern Florida, north of the Everglades and south of Orlando. It links Florida’s Atlantic and Gulf sides via the Port Mayaca Lock on Okeechobee’s east side and the Moore Haven Lock on Lake Okeechobee’s western side. Drainage canals lower the lake and drain adjacent lands for farming. Agricultural activities in the Central Florida Okeechobee area include cattle ranching, dairy farming, and crop production of sugarcane, winter vegetables, citrus, sod, sweet corn, and rice.
Disaster Strikes
In 1926 and 1928, hurricane waters destroyed the dikes on the lake’s southern edge, which resulted in thousands of deaths. As a result, the Okeechobee waterway was developed as a reservoir with canals and levees built. Today, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the South Florida Water Management District direct the waters via dikes, canals, and floodgates to protect against flooding, prevent navigation of saltwater intrusion, and give water for agricultural irrigation.
It also supplies drinking water to large urban areas in the State of Florida. Unfortunately, these water management activities have much encumbered the water flow from Okeechobee to the Everglades. Instead of alternating wet and dry seasons, which provided steady sheets of water, the Everglades now receive times of drought or powerful discharges of water.
This body of water sports all types of waterway structures to fish – from open water to narrow canals surrounded by hundreds of different vegetation and grasses.
