About Your Trip

Join Andrew for an unforgettable freshwater fishing trip in one of Florida’s most exciting and unique fisheries. This is a hands-on, action-filled experience targeting some of the most colorful and hard-fighting freshwater species in the state, all while fishing productive canals, lakes, and waterways known for consistent bites and aggressive strikes.

From the moment you step aboard his 17’ Nitro, you’ll be set up for light tackle fishing designed to maximize excitement and feel every strike. This boat is built for shallow-water access and quick movement between productive spots, allowing Andrew to stay on top of active fish throughout the day.

Depending on conditions and location, you’ll have the chance to target Peacock Bass, Clown Knife Fish, Largemouth Bass, and other exotic freshwater species that make this fishery so special. These fish are known for their strong fights, explosive hits, and unique appearance, making every catch memorable.

Throughout the trip, you’ll use a variety of proven techniques including topwater lures, artificial baits, and live bait presentations. Each method is chosen based on fish behavior and conditions, giving you a well-rounded and engaging fishing experience. Whether you’re working surface strikes early in the morning or slowing down with live bait as conditions change, Andrew keeps you in the best possible position for success.

This trip is ideal for anglers of all experience levels, from beginners looking to learn light tackle fishing to seasoned anglers chasing exotic freshwater species. Andrew provides guidance throughout the day to help you get the most out of every opportunity.

Join Andrew for a freshwater adventure where light tackle action, exotic species, and nonstop excitement come together in one of Florida’s most productive and visually stunning fisheries.

Andrew was an excellent and joyfull guide. He had us on peacock bass within minutes of our start and we caught the trifecta of peacocks, clown knife fish and large mouth. My son and I will definitely use him next time!
