What to Expect Fishing with Scott

Lake Okeechobee and Florida Everglades guided fishing trips


What to Expect?

BOAT? You will be fishing out of a 2009 Z520DVX Ranger Bass Boat (21 feet long) or a Ranger 2400 (24 feet long) so you will be more than comfortable ,even if the wind blows. I'm running an Evinrude E-TEC 250 H.O. motor and it is awesome!

Tackle? I will provide all of the tackle, rods and reels.

All of the equipment is high quality and easy to use. I will provide bait casting as well as spinning gear. You are welcome to bring as much of your own gear as you would like, especially if you have a lucky lure or fishing pole. Live bait is extra.



Food and drink? I have a large cooler on board, so bring water and your favorite snack or you can purchase every thing at Roland Martins Marina. We also have a great restaurant so you will be able to grab a good breakfast and they will also make you a boxed lunch to go.


Sunglasses and sunscreen? Try to bring your favorite sun screen and if you forget, don't worry I have plenty. Make sure your sun glasses are polarized this will help you see much more. Lake Okeechobee is very shallow and clear and if you come when the bass are spawning you will see a lot of fish.

Winter months? Bring some warm clothes! It will usually be cold in the morning and it will warm up quickly in the late morning. Our air temp. in the winter usually around 70-75 degrees and our water temp. is usually 65-75 degrees.
