Would definitely recommend as we had a great time

November 21, 2024

We went on a father-son vacation with them. What an experience! This was the first time for both of us to fish in the lake. Thomas set us up with Captain Adam. The captain knew exactly where to go to catch fish. We were 40 minutes late for our private tour at 6pm. I wouldn't recommend this, but Captain Adam was waiting for us and was very patient and helpful. I was out for 2 hours and caught 8 fish. As a newbie to fishing, I'm used to fishing for a few hours and not catching anything! So this was a great experience!!

November 21, 2024

We did a half day pm trip and the captain put us where the fish were biting. Can't wait to go back again

November 21, 2024

We had a great time fishing despite the bad weather. We caught around 40 largemouth. Had an amazing time and learned a lot from him

November 21, 2024

He took us on a lot of trips and every time I learn a lot from him. We caught a lot of fish from largemouths, stripers, and redfish in the area. We are so excited to get back soon. Would highly recommend Central Florida Outdoors

How do I start? One of the nicest boating days I've ever had! I enjoyed even tho I had no idea what I was doing. I never saw anything like how Captain Thomas put me on the fish. After lugging them in, my arms grew fatigued. He was fun to talk to, taught me new skills, and did everything in his power to make sure I had the best day on the water. You can be sure I'll call him when I get back to Florida, and I urge you to do the same.
