Get ready to chase some trophy bass in two of Florida's most legendary fishing spots. This 6-hour charter takes you through the wild Everglades and onto the expansive Lake Okeechobee, giving you a double dose of prime bass territory.

If you've got some experience under your belt and want to step up your game, this is your chance to tangle with some real monsters.

Trip Overview

This isn't your average fishing trip. We're hitting two world-class bass fisheries in one day, maximizing your chances of landing that fish of a lifetime. Your pro guide knows these waters like the back of their hand and will put you on the fish. We provide all the top-notch gear, so you just need to bring your A-game. With 6 solid hours on the water, you'll have time to try different spots and techniques. Whether you're looking to fine-tune your skills or test out some new strategies, this trip delivers. It's perfect for anglers who want more than just a quick outing - we're talking a full-on bass quest here.

What to Expect on the Water

We'll kick things off early, meeting at the dock before sunrise. After a quick safety rundown, we'll head out to our first spot. Depending on the conditions and recent fish activity, we might start in the Everglades' labyrinth of channels and grass mats, or we could hit Lake Okeechobee's vast open water. Your guide will read the water and decide where the bass are most likely to be biting. We'll use a variety of techniques throughout the day - from flipping heavy cover to working topwater lures across lily pads. You might find yourself pitching into thick vegetation one minute and working a deep ledge the next. It's all about adapting to what the fish want on any given day.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Let's be real - once you've fished the Everglades and Lake Okeechobee, other spots just don't quite measure up. The sheer variety of fishing opportunities is mind-blowing. In the Everglades, you're casting into primeval swamps where gators sun themselves on logs and ospreys dive for their lunch. Then you hit Okeechobee, and suddenly you're on a inland sea, with miles of open water dotted with grass islands and hidden honey holes. The bass here grow big and fight hard, thanks to the year-round growing season and abundant food. Plus, with 6 hours on the water, you've got time to really dial in your presentation and potentially rack up some serious numbers. It's the kind of fishing that gets in your blood and keeps you coming back for more.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Largemouth Bass: These are the stars of the show, and for good reason. Florida-strain largemouth are known for growing to trophy sizes, and both the Everglades and Lake Okeechobee are prime big bass factories. These fish can top 10 pounds, with even bigger ones lurking in the depths. They're ambush predators, often holding tight to cover like submerged logs, grass mats, or dock pilings. When they hit, it's explosive - there's nothing quite like seeing a big bass blow up on a topwater lure at dawn. Spring is generally prime time for big bass, but you can catch them year-round here. The key is adapting your tactics to the seasonal patterns.

Peacock Bass: While not native to Florida, these colorful fighters have established themselves in parts of the Everglades canal system. Originally from South America, peacock bass were introduced to control other non-native fish species, and they've thrived. They're known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs. Peacocks prefer warm water, so they're most active in the hotter months. They're usually smaller than largemouth, averaging 2-4 pounds, but what they lack in size they make up for in ferocity. Sight-fishing for peacocks in clear canals is an absolute blast - you can often see them chase down your lure.

Top Catches This Season

This season has been on fire for big bass. We've seen multiple 8+ pounders come to the boat, with a few pushing double digits. One group last month managed to boat 3 fish over 7 pounds in a single day - that's the kind of action that keeps anglers up at night dreaming about their next trip. The peacock bass fishing has been equally hot, with several fish in the 4-5 pound range landed. These aren't just numbers - each one of these fish represents a memory that'll last a lifetime.
