The Best Western Plus Inn was a very nice place to stay and close to everything we needed it to be close to. We would also highly recommend Harry's Old Place restaurant located on the West side of Ned Lake. A day trip to the Bok Tower Garden in Lake Wales is a must see wonder of the World and lunch at their Blue Palmetto Cafe was A+

Had an incredible day fishing with Pete from A#1 Bass Guide Service. We caught a ton of bass and had a blast doing it. Pete was not only an expert guide but also great company—easygoing, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a top-notch fishing trip, I highly recommend booking with him. Can’t wait to go again!

Great fishing! Terry was a great Catching( fishing) guide. Actually best experience I’ve had. Terry was great with my ten year old girl who actually caught the most and biggest bass. It’s nice to go out and know you are with someone who is going to get you on the fish! Looking forward to my next trip which is already scheduled.

My brother and I had a blast with Terry. When the bass decided to slow down we switched tactics and got right on the crappie. Terry always made sure we had bait on our hooks and even cleaned our catch to bring home for dinner! Next time we are in the area we will absolutely be back for another trip!

We started the fishing trip early morning with Bill. He already had the boat in the water when we arrived, meaning we could fish longer. When we arrived he put us right on the fish. Second cast, fish on! We move to another spot and same thing. Fishing was great. Bill knows where to fish. I can highly recommend him.
Many thanks from Montana. Chris & Christa

Captain Bill was very knowledgeable getting us into bigger bass than we have ever caught before just 15 minutes into our trip. He was very nice to my 2 sons and I telling us stories and helping us to have tight lines all day. We ended the day with 30 bass and multiple of which were 4 pounders! I would recommend this above any other bass trip or inshore trip that I have been on! We will definitely be back! Thank you Captain Bill!

Our charter with Capt. Pete was really great! It was a beautiful day on the water. Pete was genuinely "just one of the guys" with good conversation and great fishing know how. Bluebird skies made for tougher fishing but we still caught quite a few bass including a couple of 4#ers. He has our recommendation!

Fishing Booking did not inform me that a bigger boat was available. The boat we had was great, but the bigger would have been better.
