Want to escape Orlando’s busy streets and experience its most treasured natural resource? You’re in the right place! Lake Toho is the #1 big bass lake in the state, and we fish it full-time. This stunning lake is conveniently located near Disney World, SeaWorld, Universal Studios, and the Orlando Convention Center.

Year after year, Lake Toho produces more bass over 10 pounds than any other lake in the country. Want proof? Just check out our pictures! At any moment, that trophy bass you’ve been dreaming of could be on the other end of your line. With our professional, top-of-the-line equipment, anyone can handle the fight! Lake Toho Guides even holds the record for the largest 10-pound bass ever caught on this lake.

Operating since the 1980s, Lake Toho Guides is Orlando’s largest and oldest continuously-operated fishing guide service. Capt. Steve and his experienced guides have been featured on countless fishing TV shows and in Bass Magazines 11 times, as well as on ESPN, ABC Sports, CBS Sports, and FLW Outdoors.

With Lake Toho Guides, you’ll be fishing aboard modern bass boats powered by 250hp Mercury engines, equipped with the latest fishing and safety gear. All fishing gear and lures are provided, but you’re welcome to purchase wild shiners, the most effective bait for trophy bass.

For groups of 4 or more, we only offer live bait trips due to the risk of multiple people casting artificial lures at the same time. If you’d prefer to fish with artificial lures, please book a trip with 3 or fewer people. For larger groups, we also have pontoons available, which can be found on FishingBooker.

Lake Toho isn’t just about fishing! Bring a camera to capture stunning wildlife, including bald eagles, hawks, ospreys, ducks, and even alligators.

Join the action with Lake Toho Guides and let’s go fishing—you won’t be disappointed!

Perfect Day on Toho!

Mini Half Day Trip - 5hrs (PM) on October 18, 2025 • 3 adults

Went fishing with Devon on Lake Toho and caught so many fish that we lost count! Our son caught his personal best at 6lbs. 6oz. and I caught my biggest at 4lbs. 4 oz(amazing for a mostly inexperienced woman). We used live bait while my husband used artificial lures. My husband caught a nice almost 5lb. bass. Devon had us on the fish quickly, gave us great guidance, and we caught fish the while time!!! Highly recommend taking a trip with Captain Devon!!!

Thanks Captain Devin

Half Day Trip - 4hrs (AM) on June 24, 2025 • 2 adults

When I booked the charter with Lake Toho Guides, I wrote that I had two goals I wanted to achieve during my 4 hour charter. First I wanted to catch multiple bass. Secondly, I wanted to learn and practice some techniques using artificial lures. Captain Devin and I were able to start at 6:00 and he put us on the bass within minutes of leaving the dock. I landed 15 in 2 hours. I missed 7-8 more. We moved on to work artificial lures and the bit slowed but the effort to get us on the bass did not. I was able to boat two more. The conversation and teaching was great. Pictures were an added bonus. I hope I get the opportunity to book another charter with Captain Devin

Great Fish, Great Knowledge,Great Day

Mini Half Day Trip - 5hrs (AM) on June 17, 2025 • 2 adults

The Captain was great, lots of lovely knowledge. Communication was good although we misunderstood a.message so we're late but this was not a issue. We also should have listened to the Captain and brought 4 dozen shinners as the live bait had so many more hits than lures. It was worth the extra expense. We were on fish within minutes or arriving at spot and advice on different style of fish for Bass was continuous, clear and successfull. We caught 7 good fish during our trip all on live bait. The Captain was a real character and conversation flowed easily across a wide range of subjects although as he said jokingly "except politics and religion" We had a great day and would book again. Thanks for making the trip memorable Captain Steve.

Perfect Bass Fishing Trip with Devin

Half Day Trip - 4hrs (PM) on September 4, 2025 • 3 adults

Three of us went fishing with Devin on a lovely day on Lake Toho . We were a bit worried as it was afternoon and the sun was out . But Devin knew where the fish were and we were soon onto them.The first fish was 2lb 8 oz and the second just a bit smaller then one at 3lb 3oz . Plenty of bites but we wernt fast enough .We finished with another 3 fish biggest being 4lb 2oz . A great 4 hours on the lake . so much easier with Devin as our expert .

Great experience, my son didn't want to leave

2 1/2 Hour Trip - Splash & Go (PM) on July 13, 2025 • 2 adults

Capt Mike took my son and I out. He was really amazing. He helped us at every step of the way (we are not great fishermen!). It was one of those days when the fish were nibbling but not biting. We could see other captains giving up and going home. Mike kept us out beyond the time we had paid for, to make sure we caught some fish. We probably would have caught more if I hadn't been over excited and struck too soon on a couple. Thank you very much Mike.

Steve, thank you so much for this amazing review. It was a lot of fun getting the opportunity to fish with you and your son. Summer time bite is always one to be patient with and I am glad we were able to piece it all together to make it a great day! Let's do it again in the near future.
