Fishing is tuff in August because of the heat and lack of oxygen the bite is tuff prey for wind. Also book a guide with a lot of Years of experience like Captain Erik he turned us on to fish in a tuff situation and work hard to keep us on the bite

If you are in Orlando and looking for a guy that can get brand new anglers or professionals on big fish, Makin’ Big Bass Memories is the way to go.

Although we caught some fish, we were told it's nothing compared to fishing earlier in the summer or in spring.

The guides seem to all use spincast reels. If you are not familiar with those you might want to brush up.

Read the recent customer reviews for the captain you are considering prior to booking!

Pay attention to weather patterns that could affect the availability of hungry fish

Honestly Steven handles everything!! Bring your sunscreen, drinks, and snacks. Also- remember that any experience with Steven is FANTASTIC and he will do his best to make sure you catch something.

It was hot but we were out there early to avoid it and there were a bunch of fish biting so it worked out. Bring your sunscreen, hat and coverage but even though it was so hot, it was so fun!

Live bait, which was something we don’t typically use back at home but worked out well for us during this trip

Definitely go see captain erik. He knows where the fish are and he made my dad and my uncle and myself feel very welcome on his boat

Make sure you dress warm, weather can change throughout the day, and make sure you bring your smile. You will have a good time and the scenery is amazing!

Call Steven and be honest about your fishing abilities. He will do everything for you, or let you do it on your own if you are capable! Ask questions and tip your guide/captain!

There is both fresh and salt water fishing trips to take. I would speak to the captains to find the best times to fish the targeted fish you are looking for.

If you are an experienced bass angler you should hook up with Blake at Fleetwood Bass Fishing for an experience that will not disappoint.

Wear layers. Sunscreen and sun glasses. Always remember, it is about the experience….. a fish is a bonus!!

The cooler months would be far better, but with an expert guide plenty of fish can still be caught during the height of summer
Brian Locker
Nicholasville, KY
In hot months get there at sun rise or sundown. The heat slows down the bite. But it’s still there!!

February fishing in Orlando is great. Not sweltering hot for you or the fish. Get that morning bite though!!!

Capt Jonathon is the man for a great experience. Patient and an excellent instructor. Kids or novice fishermen would learn great techniques and enjoy the beauty that the area is.
