Hey friends, My wife and I are going to south Florida in January.  I want to take at least a half day trip to okechobee and try to catch a monster.

 

So, please inform me of any guide services that are good or bad.

 

I will interview the guide but here is what I need.  Not a redneck.  Not a comedian.  My wife is not a fisherman and I want someone patient.  No sarcasm.  Just help us go fishing. 

 

thanks

^{Anyone ever used this place?}

Those guys are pretty much better in the Glades.

 

If your going to Clewiston Steve Daniels

 

If your going to Okeechobee  Buck Derance or Larry Wright

 

All of these guys are from a Southern heritage I dont know what you mean by no rednecks?

 

They have experiance in bringing all age and genders fishing so they're are patient .

 

And they are seriouse about putting you on fish.

You should start guiding Rob.  It's not like you have a job or anything to take up your time.  And you spend more time on the north end of the lake than anyone I know.

When I was looking for my house I met a guy in Okeechobee he was a retired Fireman and was about 10 years ahead of me at the time, he had a place up there and loved to fish tournaments. He told me two years prior he started guiding, he said it became a full time job and caused him to lose interest in fishing.

 

He said if you move here like I did dont start guiding, it'll ruin tournament fishing, that always stayed in my mind.

 

Iv done it in the Glades and up at the lake a few fill in trips it makes for a long day dunking shiners listeining to people talk about stuff you dont care about.

 

Who knows maybe one day, never say never.

I do a couple of trips a year on Kissimmee and do not do shiner trips.  Artificial only.  I only take out experienced fishermen who are down here on vacation and sick of the Mouse and need to get away for a day.
