We did the cast and blast trip and were able to check a couple things off the list. One of the guys in our group was really wanting to catch a snakehead and got it done, and I was able to knock a peacock bass off my bucket list as well.We also got some good iguanas during the hunting portion of the trip. The equipment provided was top notch, especially the guns, and everything was handled with a strong focus on safety. For someone new to this type of trip, there’s definitely an opportunity to experience a little bit of everything.

As an avid bass fisherwoman in TN, Okeechobee has always been on my bass lake bucket list and then add Mark Shephard as my guide and it couldn’t get much better! Fairly slow in the beginning but we ended up getting on a top water bite and it was game on! I will definitely be back!

Another great day out on the “big O” with Mark. It’s like fishing with a friend he is an outstanding patient teacher and for a beginner like me it’s been the best thing to help me improve. Looking forward to booking a number of trips this winter.

Had the pleasure of fishing with capt. Miley on 9/6 in the aero jet canal, threw top water all morning and landed 6 peacock bass and several largemouth. The last two largemouths caught were in the 7-8 pound range. Capt Miley is a wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to fish with. Thanks for a great day on the water

5 star rating We have been fishing with Capt. Lenny for over four years. We always enjoy our trips and catch plenty of largemouth bass. Lenny is a professional, competent captain with lots of enthusiasm. He was fantastic with my son (12 years old). He interacted with him and helped him fish. Definitely worth every penny! Thanks, Capt. Lenny.

The lake was at a record low when i went and pretty much the hardest time of year to fish. Let me tell you it didn't matter. DJ was very knowledgeable and kept me on fish pretty much the whole time. Highly recommend going anytime. It's a beautiful lake and the fish are so beautiful in color.

Awesome fishing trip. Captain Fevin was a great guide. Everywhere he took us we caught fishing. We had a wonderful time. I recommend buying at least 3 - 4 dozen shades, live bait is the way we caught all of our fish. We will use Captain Devin again. Highly recommend him.

Did a four hour fishing trip with Captain Devin. Brilliant day out for me and my 12 year old son. He loves fishing at home in England but is still very much a beginner and was thrilled to catch some unfamiliar fish like large mouth bass and florida gar. Devlin is very skilled local fisherman and also really nice guy. I loved seeing native birds and wild alligators in natural habitat.

Fishing charter reviews represent our customers and the passion we have at bassonline.com. It all stems from being in love with the sport of bass fishing and from providing high-quality fishing charter reviews more straightforwardly than ever before. Finding the very best fishing charter is hard to do, we know. One of the best ways to separate the good from the bad is by searching through fishing charter reviews.

While most do not have reviews, we bring to you real-life, real-time charter fishing reviews from our customers on real-life fishing trips.

Our review system includes current interactive reviews along with older customer feedback collected over many years. When comparing guides, prioritize recent reviews that identify the guide, location, and type of trip.

Yes, that’s right, you can read reviews or post a review on each fishing guide. This is undoubtedly going to take the guessing out of hiring your next fishing guide. Read the most current fishing charter reviews and view accurate customer ratings from the fishing charter experience.

How to Evaluate Fishing Charter Reviews

  • Recency: give more weight to recent trips.
  • Specificity: look for comments about the actual guide, location, boat, communication, and trip length.
  • Patterns: one unusual review matters less than repeated themes across multiple customers.
  • Expectations: remember that weather and fish activity can vary; evaluate how the guide handled the day, not only the number of fish caught.

Confirmation of Outstanding Service

Customer feedback, guide profiles, trip history, boat information, and direct communication can all help anglers compare fishing guides. Now, through customer reviews, boat inspections, captain interviews, and first-hand fishing experiences. We bring it to you, and you be the judge. At Bass Online, we have always been passionate about the sport, our captains’ love for what they do, and, of course, you, the customer, who makes it all possible.

Ultimately, we want to make booking your next fishing charter a better experience than ever before by making it easier and eliminating the guesswork. We know that “booking a charter” is a big commitment. That’s exactly why we list, rate, and review our charter fishing trips.

Use the reviews on this page together with each guide, lake, and place page to compare recent customer experiences before booking.

“If you would like to share a review, good or bad. Please visit the actual posted fishing report, fishing guide, or lake and leave a specific review. If not, you can post on the City location Page of the lake you fished. At the bottom of each page or post, find a box labeled “CLICK HERE TO WRITE A REVIEW.”
