Spent last weekend with Canadian clients, went out on lake Kissimmee, and the stick marsh, Kissimmee was tough on us the first day, had 3 big fish bite, only landed one of them, a 7.3! She was a beautiful! Next day we were out on Stick-marsh, lotta smalls, nothing really to brag about, had a blast though, nice places to fish!!

We went in search of butterfly peacock bass today,and it was a smash fest!! Topwater plugs with live bait mixed in kept us chasing rods and grabbing the net!! Stephan and Steve from Toronto were duly impressed with the power and outright ferocity of the peacock bass today..one of those trips you don't soon forget!!

Fishing has been great, the peacock bass is great on the urban canals as on the Everglades, with days of 50+ fish with some of giants 5+ range, large mouth bass has been good as well with numbers and fish close to double digits on Lake Okeechobee

WOW what a great way to start out the New Year fishing here off the coast of Fort Lauderdale.
Trolling the reefs has been a bit slow this January however when we ventured out just a little deeper between 200 and 400 hundred feet of water the black fin tunas have been biting ok in the early hours of the day but seemed as we got into the afternoon hours they were biting real good.
Not real sure what happen but the last few years has been producing more and more Wahoo’s also mostly in the same depth as the...

I’m pretty sure they are feeding on the black fins.
Not just us, but all the boats seem to be bring in more and more Wahoo this being the best year I’ve seen yet.
Also while the Mahi mahi are not really in season right now BUT this year they seem to be showing up way before spring and what a welcomed surprise this is always a great crowd pleaser.
The bottom fishing has been expectedly good this year as lone as we have a little north current. No current no good too much current no good BUT a knot to a knot and a half good I mean real good.
Catching the vermilion snappers reel good along with quite a few red snappers ranging from 8 to 20 pounds another great crowd pleaser. And the best new of all we are catching them in state waters so we get to harvest them.
And once again showing up early the Greater Amber Jack SEA DONKEYS, talk about a fight! We had seen many a man give up the rod before landing one of these 30 to 80 pounders.
However an unwelcomed catch nice groupers are also biting BUT Sad to say out of season.
Some times I think these fish know they get to be set free. LOL
It's spawn time in Okeechobee, waters high, Okeechobee is fishing small though. The fish are ganged up in certain areas. Good thing is, it's a really picturesque place to fish! Crappie are biting as well... some good ones too, slabs!! The senko bite and chatterbait bites getting hotter by the day for largemouth on okeechobee!! Local canals are doing well, even after the cold snap that caused a fish kill for cichlid species. Bass, peacock bass, and clown knifefish are all biting really well on both live bait and artificials."

Fantastic guide. Super cool guy. Knew all the good spots and had nonstop iguana action all day. Will definitely be using him again on our next trip down. 10/10 recommend Charles.
Jose was a great guy to spend the day with. Fishing was slow so we focused on iguanas. Could have filled up the boat with them if we had done our part. Did manage to catch a few fish too but the highlight was definitely the 🦎.
Captain Branden was amazing! Our 14-year-old and his best friend went fishing with him, and both caught Mahi. After catching it, Brandon cooked it up for lunch. They said it was the "best fishing trip" they had ever been on (and they have done a lot). Will definitely book with him again. A great day!
Had a great day with Captain Jose! We fished the Everglades and caught large mouth bass, cichlids, and even a peacock! Thanks Jose you are a great guide, very knowledgeable!
My wife, my son, and i went on a 4 hour Everglades trip with Jose and it was one of the highlights of our vacation. We caught probably 40-50 fish in 4 hours! Jose was incredibly friendly and entertaining. I would absolutely pay to fish with him again.
Great experience with captain Anthony! My Wife and I totally enjoyed our adventure and company with Anthony. Totally recommend if you’re out here in Miami Florida. We visited from CT and totally worth the drive and look
Forward to coming back and taking another ride! Clean boat, great company, encouraging personality, and welcoming! Thank you again Anthony for the great wrap to our trip!!!
