    Highly recommend David for anyone looking to fish the Orlando area!

    3 Hour Trip on December 29, 2025

    I organized a trip for my mom, brother, and nephew while we were in town over the holidays. Given the size of our group and my mom’s mobility needs, David went above and beyond by rigging his pontoon so we could all fish comfortably. I was also stubborn and insisted on fishing artificial only, and David happily accommodated—bringing out his old tournament rods for me to use, including some St. Croix Legends. We all had a great time catching fish, and David was incredibly attentive and helpful with my family, from baiting hooks to casting and landing fish. An excellent experience all around.

    Fishing with David

    6 Hour Trip on November 11, 2025

    I had an awesome experience with David Paycheck Fishing Guide Service! From start to finish, everything was super smooth and enjoyable. David was knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole trip fun—perfect for both beginners and experienced fishermen. He knew exactly where to go, explained everything clearly, and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. The boat was clean and well-kept, the equipment was great, and the overall vibe was relaxed but professional. We caught some great fish and made even better memories. If you’re looking for a friendly, reliable, and skilled fishing guide in Orlando, this is definitely the one to book. I’d 100% go again!

    Tough to Beat!

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Dave was a little under the weather so he hooked us up with Captain Marc Spencer of Hooked on Fishing Bass Charters. The day couldn't have gone better. Captain Marc had us on the fish early and often. My son and I both caught fish over 5 lbs and we totaled over 20 fish in 4 hours, most of which were 3 lbs or over. What a great day! Thanks Captain Marc!

    3 Hour Trip on May 25, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

    First time fishing out in FL. Good communication before hand. He had everything well prep. We were out for 3 hrs only. We caught some sized Large Mouth 6-7 lbs along with some other ones. My kids definitely enjoyed it and request him again next time. Thank you Capt David!

    Cold Morning with David Paycheck

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on January 16, 2026

    Our family was at Universal for a vacation and we had a morning to burn before flying out. We booked weeks prior not knowing the temperature would drop to the low 30's the night before. We put on everything warm we had and went out not expecting too much. David put us on the fish right from the start. Pulling in fish while Bassmaster practice boats watched us. Wished we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend!

    Great trip

    6 Hour Trip - 11:30 AM on July 7, 2026 • 14 adults • 8 children

    Captain Cole took us out. Our group included six young boys, and Captain Cole was geat with them and showed a lot of patience. A a result, all of them caught at least one fish each with a couple of them catching two or three each.

    Great family friendly trip

    4 Hour Trip (PM) on April 12, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had a great time fishing with David the other day! He was great with our kids and got us on fish even with the wind kicking up. Everyone caught fish including a handful of chain pickerel and a few nice bass. Highly recommend David for a fun family trip, we took a pontoon out since we had our 6 and 9 year old kids with us, which was the right choice since it gave them room to spread out.

    Worth every single penny!

    2 Hour Trip – Special - 3:30 PM on May 27, 2026 • 3 adults

    What a fabulous experience! Our guide, Cole, helped catch some bass in less-than-optimal conditions in heat & wind. Plus it’s an awesome & relaxing boat trip as well. Would gladly do this again

    Great day on the water with David Paycheck

    2 Hour Trip – Special on February 24, 2026

    We booked a fishing trip with David Paycheck while on vacation to Orlando. We had an amazing time and he was very knowledgeable, personable, professional, and patient. He had us on the fish with minutes of being on the water! I highly reccomend and we will be booking another fishing trip on our next vacation.

Amazing Day on the Water – Highly Recommend David Paycheck!
3 Hour Trip on May 2, 2026 • 2 adults

We had an absolutely fantastic day fishing with David Paycheck! From the moment we met him, he was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and easy to spend the day with. He clearly knows what he’s doing and made the entire trip enjoyable and relaxed. Best of all—we caught a lot of fish! David put us right where the fish were and kept things moving so we always had lines in the water. His knowledge, professionalism, and positive attitude really made the trip special. If you’re looking for a great fishing experience with someone who truly enjoys what he does, I highly recommend booking a trip with David. We had a great time and would definitely go out with him again!
