We typically use a mix of artificial baits, including plastic worms, crankbaits, and topwater lures depending on the conditions. You might find yourself flipping jigs into heavy cover one minute, then working a frog across lily pads the next. Kip's always happy to share tips on casting techniques or how to work a particular lure. It's hands-on learning that'll have you fishing like a pro in no time.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

"Had a wonderful time and caught a lot of fish!" - Sam

Species You'll Want to Hook

While these Orlando fishing charters focus on largemouth bass, it's worth diving into why these fish are such a blast to catch. Florida-strain largemouth are known for growing to trophy sizes, thanks to the warm climate and abundant food sources in our lakes. These fish can top 10 pounds, with the state record sitting at a whopping 17.27 pounds! Largemouth are ambush predators, often hiding in cover like submerged logs or thick vegetation before exploding on their prey. This behavior makes for some exciting fishing, as you never know when a big one might smash your lure.

Spring and fall are prime times for bass fishing in Orlando, but the action can be hot year-round. In warmer months, we often target bass early in the morning or late in the evening when they're most active. During spawning season (usually February to April), you might spot bass on their beds in shallow water - a sight that gets any angler's heart racing.

What makes largemouth so addictive to catch? It's a mix of their aggressive strikes, powerful runs, and acrobatic leaps. When a big bass hits your lure, you'll feel it all the way down to your toes. They fight hard, often trying to wrap you around underwater structure or launch themselves into the air to throw the hook. Landing a trophy largemouth is a memory that'll stick with you long after you're back on dry land.

Time to Book Your Spot

So there you have it, folks - a chance to fish some of Orlando's best waters with a guide who knows how to put you on the bass.

Customer Reviews

quotes

We had a great trip today fishing with Captain Kip. He put us on fish from start to finish. We must have put at least 20 fish in the boat. He worked with the boys teaching them the tricks to catching the big ones and it worked. We will definitely fish with Captain Kip the next time we come down. Great day on the water.

Largemouth Bass

The king of freshwater game fish, largemouth bass are a favorite target here in Orlando. These hard-fighting bucket-mouths typically run 2-5 pounds but can top 10+ in our waters. Look for them around structure like docks, fallen trees, and weed edges. Spring and fall are prime seasons as bass move shallow to feed. Anglers love 'em for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic jumps when hooked. To entice a bite, try working a plastic worm slowly along the bottom near cover. One local trick: on sunny days, flip soft plastics under overhanging trees where big bass often lurk in the shade. Whether you're after a trophy or just want to feel that tell-tale "thump," largemouth bass deliver an exciting fight that'll keep you coming back for more.
