Kenneth Doohan, Thank you! You folks were awesome. Looking forward to our next trip.

Captain Justin gave our family an incredible day on the water. He was patient, attentive, and made fishing easy and enjoyable for our kids, ages 10 and 12. From the moment we stepped on the boat, he shared helpful tips about fishing and the local area that made the experience even better. Before the trip, I mentioned that our youngest had just started fishing in November and still hadn’t caught his first fish. Captain Justin went out of his way to make sure that changed. Not only did he catch his first fish, but he ended up catching four fish total and landed the most species out of everyone in our group. Captain Justin moved us between multiple spots at the perfect times, which really made the trip successful. His local knowledge, great timing, and ability to keep everyone relaxed and engaged made the four-hour trip feel smooth, fun, and memorable for the whole family.

If you’re considering an Orlando bass fishing charter, this trip is well worth it. We caught more than 30 bass throughout the day with steady action from start to finish. Along with the bass, I also landed a giant bowfin, a crappie, and a few chain pickerel, which made the trip even better. The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and always had us in productive spots. You could tell he knew these waters extremely well and worked hard to keep us on fish all day long. He was patient, helpful, and made the trip enjoyable for everyone on board. Whether you fish all the time or just want a fun day on the water while visiting Orlando, this charter delivers. It was one of the best fishing trips I’ve been on, and I’ll definitely be booking again next time I’m in Florida.

I just got finished with a wonderful bass fishing trip with Captain Justin. My grandson turned 11 and I got this for his birthday because he always longed to catch fish and be a fisherman. We had not stopped the boat more than five minutes when he caught his first big fast and before the day was over, we had seven baths and two Pickering wonderful catch a beautiful fish and a day on the water learning and enjoying nature, sorcifically bass fishing.

The best part about the trip was having us feel like no worries needed just have a great time. I truely appreciate the fact that he didn't treat the trip as a job, we understood we were fishing like family. Thank You Captain with Makin Big Bass Memories.

I booked this trip as a birthday gift for my nephew, and it couldn’t have gone any better! There were four of us total, and the boat was super comfortable for everyone. Justin was an excellent guide—friendly, patient, and really knew where to find the fish. He took us to a few great spots, and we caught a ton of bass! You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does and wanted us to have a great experience. We all had an incredible time and can’t wait to go again. Highly recommend Justin if you’re looking for a fun and successful day out on the water!

Elias Rosas, Thank you! You folks were awesome. Looking forward to our next trip.

It was my 13-year-old son’s first fishing excursion, and I am so grateful we experienced it with Justin. The entire journey was incredible. My son caught numerous fish and truly cherished those 4 hours on the boat with Justin. It was a valuable learning experience, particularly for my son. I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on a trip with Makin Big Bass Memories, especially with Justin.

Had a great time fishing with Capt. Justin on Lake John this morning. Capt. Justin is very knowledgeable of the lake and bass behavior for catching quality fish. I will call Capt. Justin if I’m ever in Orlando area in the future. Highly recommended. David J

Bubba Jones, Thank you! You folks were awesome. Looking forward to our next trip.

This was the first charter trip for my son and me, and it couldn’t have gone better. Justin made everything easy from the start—clear instructions on where to meet, a smooth boarding process, and we were off to the first spot. Within minutes, I was reeling in my first fish of the day! As someone new to fishing, I really appreciated Justin’s help with casting while my son—the real fisherman in the family—was already in his element. I caught bass back-to-back, followed by my very first pickerel and gar—species I had never even heard of before. Such a cool and exciting moment! We took tons of photos and videos, and Justin kept cold bottled water on hand for us. The second spot had calmer water and a whole new mix of wildlife. Justin shared all kinds of info about the local birds, and we learned so much throughout the day. Using live bait was new to me too, since my son usually sticks with frogs and lures. The highlight? My son landed his personal best—a bass around 5 pounds and 21 inches. He was beyond proud. Time flew, and we honestly didn’t want the day to end. After wrapping up, we chatted a bit at the dock before heading back to the hotel. Whether you're new or experienced, Justin is the guide you want. We had a blast and can’t wait to book again. Thanks, Justin—you’ll definitely see us back!
