 3329 Placid View Drive, Lake Placid, FL 33852, United States

Hoping to catch some Big Bass on Lake Placid or Lake June in Winter? Morrell Fishing Adventures is where your adventure begins!

Largemouth Bass and more inhabit these waters, depending on the season. You’ll target your catch with artificial baits, live wild shiners, or both!

You’ll be welcome aboard a 21’ Blazer 625 Pro Elite Bass boat with space for 4 passengers. It comes pro-level loaded with 3 to 4 Lowrance HDS live graphs with std, down scan, side scan, live scan, 10’ powerpoles, and a 36v Lowrance ghost trolling motor for the clients to find their Florida trophies! Valerie will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, it may be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

It’s recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Long sleeve wicking or fishing shirts are recommended along with buffs and hats. It’s Florida and you can burn year-round. Ice and bottled water will be available for you. Clients are encouraged to bring snacks, sodas, or sports drinks if they prefer.

6 Hour Trip – June and Placid on March 22, 2025

Booked Valerie for a trip out in Lake Placid, Florida during March 2025. Not only was I able to land my first 5+ pound bass, but I was also given a master class in the use of state of the art electronics and how to find fish. Val was very informative and was patient and willing to answer all my questions. I caught loads of fish as well as the big one that I came to Florida to find. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a great experience with an accommodating captain, that knows how to put you on fish. Looking forward to my next trip down to Florida and fishing with Valerie.

8 Hour Trip – June and Placid on April 19, 2025

It was a perfect day. Valerie is the most professional bass fishing guide I’ve ever met. Given the strong winds, we didn’t have high expectations, but Valerie’s patience and expertise helped us catch 70+ bass. Thank you, Valerie!

6 Hour Trip – June and Placid on November 29, 2024

Had a great day out on the lake with Capt. Val and all four of us caught multiples! I was concerned about going and possibly not being enough room for me, Mom the rookie, but so glad I did. Plenty of room for us all and a great day spent on the lake with my boys. Great boat, equipment and stories. Thank you Val, dinner that night was delicious!

Had a great day of fishing with Valerie. This Captain knows the lakes and how to put you on fish. I am an experienced and lifelong fisherman and would absolutely fish with her again.

I've been fishing all my life in one sort of way or another. I started fishing tournaments around 2014 and decided to start doing some guiding around 2016. I just really love catching Trophy Largemouth Bass and putting people on them!
