Northeast Florida Bass, On Their Home Water.
Guided largemouth bass, crappie, and redfish trips on the legendary St. Johns River and the best lakes around Palatka — with a local captain who knows where they're biting.
The St. Johns River is home — and we know it.
Every trip is a hands-on day on the water with a guide who fishes these waters year-round and knows where the bass are moving and what they're biting.
Live shiners or artificial, full day or half — we tailor the trip to your experience level and the day's conditions. First bass or a trophy hawg, we'll put you on fish.
