South Central Florida Bass
South Central Florida Bass
Escape to some of Florida's most iconic waters with Captain Brett, owner of Florida Fishing Adventures.
Located out of Sebring, Florida (Highlands County) we offer thrilling charters across many different South Central Florida waters.
Florida, the Bass Fishing capital of the world is known for big trophy Bass and there has been hundreds of 8lbs.+ submitted to Florida's Trophy Catch Bass Program.
Cast your line for Largemouth Bass using live wild Shiners or artificial lures to entice the big one.
Live Shiner fishing is an additional cost per dozen Shiners if you're wanting to use live bait.
We will be fishing in a 20' Ranger 482VS dual console 25th Bassmasters Classic Edition Bass Boat. It is powered by a Suzuki 175HP 4 stroke outboard. Minn Kota Ultrex 36v 112lb electric motor with i-pilot. It has 2 12" Lowrance HDS Lives with Active target 2 (FFS), a HDS 9" Gen3 at the console. It also has regular sonar and side/down scan. Updated batteries with Powerhouse Lithium batteries.
What to bring:
Remember to bring your Florida Freshwater Fishing License. If your not a Florida resident you'll have to go to a dealer or tax collectors office to purchase it. Only annual non-resident fishing licenses are available online now. Dress for the weather conditions. Bring your phone or camera, sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, hat, neck gator. Bring a small cooler with something to eat and drink. I highly recommend water & Gatorade.
