Orlando's #1 guide for giant bass. CHECK OUT MY REVIEWS AND PICTURES! People come to Orlando for the amusement parks, but angler enthusiasts won’t miss a chance to get on some fishing action in the surrounding lakes. Captain Erik Alman of Captain Erik’s Trophy Bass will take you to the local hotspots and will do his best you get your catch. Hopefully, at the end of the day, you’ll have a big one for a photo you can show off to your friends!
You’ll be gliding across the lakes on board Capt. Erik's bass boat. It's got all the fishfinding equipment you need and a single Yamaha engine that can reach speeds up to 40 knots. You’re sure to reach your lucky spot in no time. And for a more tactful approach, the crew uses a wireless trolling motor.
Capt. Erik specializes in lake fisheries in the Orlando area and will take you fishing for the famed Largemouth Bass. He fishes Lake Kissimmee, as well as other lakes in the area. With Erik, you’ll get to explore the less touristy locations where the locals go and catch a glimpse of the amazing Central Florida wildlife. During your adventure, you'll fish on light tackle using techniques such as trolling, spinning, and drift fishing to reel in your catch.
Children are welcome, though if they are under 12 years old, they will have to wear a provided life vest. Before setting off, be sure to acquire a Florida freshwater fishing license, as the charter doesn’t cover it. When it comes to necessary fishing gear and lures, it will all be waiting for you on board. The crew also offers refreshments during the trip, but feel free to bring your own snacks.
Experience the surrounding lakes of Orlando and their wildlife in the exciting fishing adventure with Captain Erik. You’ll get to make memories that will last you a lifetime, so don’t miss out and book now!
When you book with Captain Erik's Trophy Bass, you'll be fishing with Captain Erik himself, and not another Captain.

Fish on!
5 Hr Am Fishing Adventure BEST DEAL on April 10, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children
If you want to go catching not fishing call Capt Erik. He was incredible with my kids and absolutely loves to Fish. you can feel his passion. All he wants is for his customer to catch as many big fish as possible. We had to work a little at the beginning due to a massive weather change overnight but he found them and the rods stayed bent for hours. My 2 boys and I will remember the trip the rest of our lives. Thanks Capt Erik. see you again one day. cheers

4 Hour Morning Fishing Adventure on March 12, 2026 • 1 adult
Booked a 4 hour morning trip with Capt Erik. I pulled into the boat ramp at 630 and Capt had the boat waiting for me in the water. Bite was very light for the first hour or so and Capt did a great job coaching and working for every fish. Then the bite turned on and it was one after another for a solid 2 hours. We tried 4 different methods to catch fish, and they all worked. Ended the day with well over 20 fish, with 5 at or over 5 pounds. This was a solo trip but next time the kids are coming. Highly recommend Capt Erik. He communicated well, worked hard, and was timely. 5 out of 5, will definitely book again.

6 Hour Morning Fishing Adventure on April 9, 2026 • 1 adult • 1 child
My son (7) and I had a great time. Capt Erik put us on the fish. In first 5 min of fishing my non experienced son was reeling in a bass. Capt Erik is very knowledgeable in his trade and does his job well. We got some stud fish in the boat and made memories that will last with us a lifetime. Would fish with Capt Erik anytime!

3 HR Morning Fishing Adventure (am) on July 24, 2025 • 4 adults
We had the absolute best time fishing with Captain Erik! From the moment we stepped onto the boat, he had us laughing and feeling right at home. His sense of humor and easygoing personality made the day so much fun — it felt like we were out on the water with an old friend.
But beyond the laughs, Captain Erik really knows his stuff. He was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, especially with our sons, taking the time to teach them how to fish and making sure they felt confident and excited every step of the way. Thanks to his guidance, we caught tons of great fish and made memories that will last a lifetime.
Captain Erik helped make our trip truly special and unforgettable. We can't recommend him enough — if you're looking for a guide who’s fun, skilled, and genuinely passionate about what he does, Captain Erik is your guy!
