    Caught a Lot, Learned a Lot

    4 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on May 27, 2026 • 2 adults

    My 13 year old son and I had a tremendous bank fishing adventure with Jake. i auppose the headlibe is that we caught 20+ fish between us, mostly peacock bass. My son landed a beutiful 3.5 pounder. I caught the “Fishing with Jake” grand slam of Peacock, Large Mouth, Snakehead, Cichlid. From a pure catchijg rate, it was a highly productive 4 hour adventure. It was great. But, for me, the true highlight of the day was how much my son learned. He has gotten interested in fishing throigh his friends. But he lacked experience and wanted to improve his basic fishing fundamentals: casting, hook setting, etc. Jake is a great teacher. Patient. Encouraging. Effective. And my son emerged from the excursion with not only some nice photos but with skills he can take with him for his own bank fishing adventures in the future.

    Fishing and Iguana hunt

    2hr Peacock Bass & 2hr Iguana Hunt on July 15, 2026 • 3 adults

    Crew were straight forward and responded quickly. They meet you at the bait shop where you buy your minnows. they recommend us get 5 dozen which seems like a lot but we used them. Fishing takes place in neighborhood ponds between houses and subdivisions. We averaged about 5 fish per person per pond. Everywhere we went we caught fish. Mostly Peacock, (which averaged 1-2 pounds with the largest pushing 4lbs) but a few of everything from snake heads to gar. The iguana hunts were fantastic! I cant tell you how many we took each day, we lost count but it had to be 20-30 each.

    You will catch Peacock Bass!

    4 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on May 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    My wife and I fished with Ron today! Our goal was to catch Peacock Bass. Catch them we did! Ron was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell he takes a lot of professional pride in giving his customers a lasting fishing memory. My wife and I caught multiple Peacock Bass along with Florida Bass and even had a blow up from a snake head. I would highly recommend that you give these guys a call if you want to have a great day fishing while in South Florida. Thank you

    Jake is the best!!

    2 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on May 29, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    We had an awesome Peacock bass fishing trip in South Florida with Jake today! He was extremely professional, very knowledgeable about the area and the fish, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. What really stood out was how great he was with the kids — super patient, friendly, and made sure they had a blast the whole time. If you’re looking for a fun and successful fishing trip, I highly recommend booking with Jake!

    Nice Afternoon of Fishing

    4 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on April 12, 2026 • 4 adults

    Very nice afternoon trip for the four of us. Owner picked us up at the bait shop in his truck. You purchase your own shiners for bait, guide provides a cooler with aeration for the minnows. Tackle was hooks, and spinning rods provided for you by the guide. Drove us to several spots and shore fished, free-lining shiners. Caught 30+ in 4 hour trip, I’d guess. Mix of Peacock Bass, Largemouth, and a few Mayan Cichlids. Guide was helpful and patient with those not as experienced. Would recommend for most people. Easy, low-stress outing to get outside on vacation, and catch some fish.

    Fantastic fishing trip in Ft Lauderdale

    2 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on August 1, 2026 • 2 adults

    My son and I had an AMAZING time fishing with Fishing with Jake. Ron could not have been more friendly and generous with his guidance and expertise in these beautiful fishing spots in Ft Lauderdale. We couldn’t leave without claiming a couple t shirts to commemorate the successful trip. Between the two of us we caught over a dozen fish, the majority being Peacock Bass. Can’t recommend these folks enough. Thanks again!!!

    Amazing fishing experience

    4 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on August 23, 2026 • 2 adults

    I went fishing with my step dad and we were NOT disappointed. Everything was great, the fishing, the help received if needed, the dedication to make sure we do catch something (as we didnt have much experience). I would recommand to anyone. We had an amazing time, 100% would do it again. Ronald is a sweetheart and very interesting guy, adds up to the experience!

    book these guys! (you’ll thank me)

    2 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on August 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    my 13yr old wanted to land a Peacock Bass for a few years now. We finally decided to hire a guide and show us the ropes and help us land a few fish. From the start the boys (ages 7,13) recieved so much attention and we all ended up catching Peacocks. Here we are a day later and they are both still talking about it!! would recommend these guys 100%!!

A second time and a great experience again
2 Hr Trip – Guaranteed Peacock Bass on June 28, 2026 • 1 adult • 2 children

About a year ago we went fishing with Zach and we had a wonderful time catching fish. So much so, we came back. This time we went with Ron and, he too, had a lot to show us on the trip. I recommend the crew for adults and kids. We start of by meeting at the bait shop, buying some shiners and then promptly heading to the fishing holes for some great action. We will be looking forward to out next trip with “Fishing with Jake.”
