Bass Flats & Beyond - Clewiston
Bass Flats & Beyond - Clewiston
Bass Flats & Beyond offers a wide variety of trips targeting Largemouth Bass on Lake Okeechobee. Capt. John Larsen is a true Bass lover. His mission is to share these shallow waters with as many anglers as possible. Fish over 15 pounds have been caught in the lake before, and many anglers dedicate their lives to beating that record. Are you one of them?
Spend the day aboard a 2020 20' Sterling flats boat. The boat lives and breathes Bass fishing, and is the perfect place to be when fishing Lake Okeechobee. She can cruise at an incredible 65 knots on the way to the best fishing spots. Once you get there, her Garmin electronics and quality tackle will have you bringing in fish that put the 'large' in Largemouth.
During your day on the lake. Ten hour trips are designed for anglers on the go, looking to fit great fishing into a busy schedule. If you have the time, changing up to a four-hour trip will let you get in even more hookups.
But serious anglers know there's no rushing good fish - and Lake Okeechobee has some of the best! Eight-hour trips will see you fishing the area's top spots to bring in what could we be the next state record!
All trips come with tackle and lures. Just bring along your fishing license, polarized sunglasses, sunscreen, and any food and drink you want for the day.

captain john, got us on the boat, in TVthe skt line, awesome view. i did catch a gar, it was good size. we caught, crappie, bass, and captain john was telling us about the lake, when fishing was at a peak, showed us proper and much better way to cast from a boat. told us how to read the way the water would flow around the visible small islands. if i would have had the time, i would made another charter for some speck fishing. it is worth the time and money.
Captain John put us on large mouth bass fishing in a few spots. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and organized. Successful even in July. Highly recommended
I highly recommend Capt Mark Shepard! Very knowledgeable and definitely knows where the fish are!! A true professional!!
