When searching for a superior bass fishing guide, look no further than Fish Hand Guide Service. Captain Dan has over 30 years of experience fishing both freshwater and saltwater, and he would love to make your day on the water a memorable one.

You’ll be fishing from a 21’ Ranger bass boat, which is equipped with Garmin electronics. The boat accommodates up to 4 guests.

There are lots of fishing grounds to choose from and some of them are the famous Headwaters Lake (rated #1 in Florida), Stick Marsh/Farm 13, Lake Garcia, and Blue Cypress Lake. To make the most of your trip and give you the best chance of catching your "personal best", the captain may suggest which lake to fish and the best techniques to use on your outing. Get in touch in advance to plan your meeting location.

Your guide will provide all needed equipment and instruction for catching Largemouth Bass and other freshwater fish species. You’ll enjoy fishing in beautiful surroundings filled with a wide variety of birds and other aquatic wildlife. Be on the lookout for the American Alligator which inhabits the area and is seen regularly while fishing. A fishing license, sunglasses, sunblock, and a camera are "must-have" items on this "Great Florida Adventure".

Fishing and viewing wildlife on Florida’s lakes and marshes is a great way to immerse yourself in nature. Join Fish Hand Guide Service and explore one of Florida’s greatest treasures!

Trip of a LIFETIME!!
6 Hour Trip on June 11, 20251 adult2 children
Off Season and I knew it but Captain was confident in his spots and it proved to me and my boy. We smashed 29 good to great size bass. 8lbs 8oz 6lbs 8oz 4lbs 7oz 3lbs 14oz Probably a few more in between that didn't hit the scale. Great knowledge, patient, awesome working with my 6 year old son. Couldn't have asked for a better Florida Bass fishing experience! Thank you Captain Dan!!
