I'm looking for a reputable Bass Fishing guide in the Orlando area. I have searched the internet and found a few, but I'm wondering if anyone would recommend a particular one.

 

[Sue DeLelys]

Brad,



When are you planning the trip for?

Brad where at? Lake I mean.



We are going to be on lake Toho in two weeks. March 12th to be precise and we went through the guide service FISH-ORLANDO.





Their website is www.fish-orlando.com



We went with Chuck Pippin for our guide because he fishes more artificial than live bait.



T.S.

I live down here. It depends on what Lake you want to fish. If you want to do Toho, go with Pippin, I've heard good things.



If you want to fish the Stick Marsh, I can put you touch with a super guide, he knows the place like nobody else.



I love fishing East Toho, one of my favorite places, and it never lets me down with big fish.



Most guides down here do use artificial to help ensure the client catches big LMs. These fish down here see lures all day long, but either live bait, or a good guide can put you on some.





Another really good guide in the O-town area is this guy.

Plus you can fish from his Gambler, the finest bass boats made.

Brad if you do decide to go to Toho then we should hook up.

Brad - I have fished Toho with Capt. Bob Bloom and his Gambler (Steve's link), best time I've ever had fishing in my life. This guy is a character too. I learned alot from him the week I was down there, from boat position, boat color, fishing plastics.... you name it. He is very big in Japan too. He'll answer all your questions and spend time showing you what to do....

You'll love his stories too, he can tell 'em all day. Ask him about Fish Fishburn and the episode about Ladder fishing , if you decide to use him.



I'm not trying to take anything away from other guides...

 

[Staci Matheis]

OK, Bruce..... I'll bite..... What's the Fish Fishburn story?

 

[Scott Hammer TOXIC]

Scott,



I'm assuming it's the episode where he and his dad were fishing atop ladders in the bay (you know, the "A" frame type). It was pretty funny. I liked the series and taped most of them. He would still be on the air if his production company had stopped all of the sound effects. It was very annoying!! Hardest I ever laughed was when it took him like 20 tries to jump from a dock into a float tube. I split a gut.

Brad we will be fishing on the 12th so that probobly wont work.



BTW Brad which guide service did you choose to use?



T.S.

 

[Bruce Yeaton]

Scott, Toxic nailed it right on the head. Bob was good friends with Fish and helped him do that episode. He has alot of stories about the pros...

 

[Steven Atwell]

Hey Bruce, how'd you like his Gambler?
