We originally booked a six hour trip on Lake Ida. Captain Wayne Fellows suggested we change the location to the Everglades, and we are certainly glad... read more he did. Our goal was to catch a lot of Peacock Bass, and we did just that. We also caught plenty of Oscar, Cichlid, Largemouth Bass, Gar, a couple of Pickerel, and few other types of fish too.

  The web site makes the whole experience look like it is a very professional well planned trip. IT IS BY FAR NOT... After making reservations for a afternoon trip the... read more captain changed our outing to the morning since he said rain was in the forecast. There was no rain in the forecast why we planned the trip out then. He could not find shinners we drove a hour to pick them. We meet him at boat dock in a canal because he said this is where the fish are. We caught 2 bass apiece in 6 hours total 4 bass. The guide did try to put us on the fish he called every angler he knew on the lake to find out where the fish are as we fished. Seeing he “hadn’t fished the lake for sometime”.. The bass online boat we where on had 1/4 cracks in the fiberglass and appeared never to have been washed and very very old. The equipment was equivalent to the boat. Cheap reels, broken eyes, junk. We did have one chance to catch a descent fish. But the knot in the hook came apart when we lifted the fish up. You could tell by the leader. Of course no net, no cooler, no water, no knowledge. He fished right along side of us and never caught a fish. We both are avid fisherman and this was a bucket list for us. The $400.00 for the guide is not what makes me mad. As much the waste of time. We did pay for the trip in full seeing the guide definitely needed the money and he did try. If your planning a trip make sure to ask the guide last time he fished the lake , what his boat shape is, do you have good equipment. Do not expect.

  Capt. Wayne Fellows got us on many fish! We originally booked for Lake Ida but Capt. fortunately switched locations due to fishing report. I'm glad he did. ... read more The equipment and gear were great and we caught peacock and other species. My 15yr old and I always enjoy talking with the captain while fishing but Wayne wasn't super engaging. Nice guy, but didn't ask my son or I one question about ourselves for a 6 hour trip (other than where we were from). The dude can catch fish and will work hard for you but don't expect boat banter. Ripping through the water in the Everglades on the way to the fishing spots with music blaring was a fun experience I'll never forget.
