Nothing compares to a relaxing lake fishing in Southeast Florida. To get your slice of paradise, take a trip with Bass Flats & Beyond. Join Capt. John on Lake Osborn or Lake Ida for a few hours and enjoy what these waters have to offer.

You will be spending your day out on Lake Osborne or Lake Ida battling huge Largemouth Bass. This area is known for having some of the greatest Bass fishing scene in the state, so it's a perfect opportunity to polish your fishing technique.

Hop aboard a 22' Sterling boat that's been newly built in 2020. She features the latest Garmin navigational electronics and she's powered by a 250 HP Mercury engine. The boat has plenty of fishing space for 4 guests and also features a live bait tank, a cooler, and a fighting chair.

Capt. John will supply you with a professional tournament equipment, including rods, reels, and lures. This equipment is great for light tackle fishing, but if you're planning to catch fish on a fly, please bring your own.

You only need to purchase your fishing license and prepare some snacks and drinks of your choice. Don't forget your sun protection to avoid getting sunburned.

Bass Flats & Beyond offers incredible trips for trophy Bass, with a Captain who's always ready to take you to your next catch. Welcome aboard!

Half day with Capt Jon!
Special 6 hour trip for J.w. Droigk on April 5, 20222 adults

Capt Jon was awesome! He was very knowledgeable and helpful with us! Took his time to share his experience and helped rig everything up and kept in on the fish! And yet asked what we wanted to do and let us throw some Comfort lures! Lol! I will absolutely book with him next year! Great guide, great guy, and just overall a fun guy to fish with! Thank you again Capt Jon!

Captain Dave was very knowledgeable about the type of fish we were going to catch and where we had the best chance of catching them. He's real and honest and not afraid to speak his mind. I can guarantee that you will catch a fish within the first hour.

My dad owned a dive shop in Jupiter. I got familiar with with the reefs and wrecks spearfishing when I was very young. Later on, at UCF, I was on the Bass fishing team and won some tournaments. I'd say that ever since then Bass fishing is my absolute favorite. I got intimately familiar with both freshwater and saltwater fishing in Florida.
