It was my first time fishing in the Everglades, and having JP by our side made the experience incredible. He was helpful the entire time, keeping us engaged and sharing his knowledge on different lures, bait, and techniques. Thanks to his guidance, we caught a variety of fish including Gar, Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, Cichlids, Jaguar Guapote, and even Oscars. On top of that, we spotted a gator—such an awesome experience!

I had one of the best fishing experiences ever today, bringing my best friend along for his very first trip with Captain JP Mcay. The day was full of laughs, learning, and nonstop fun, all while enjoying great weather and plenty of hungry fish. It was also my first time fishing on a boat, and it couldn’t have gone better. Captain JP is not only a fantastic guide but also a teacher and entertainer who makes you feel comfortable and sets you up for success. He gave us hands-on tips and tricks to land some powerful fish, and once we got the hang of casting and setting the hook, the action never stopped. His boat was clean and fast, and all the gear worked perfectly. I’d rate the whole experience a 10/10 and highly recommend anyone looking for a great day on the water to book with Captain JP!

Captain JP knows exactly where to find the fish. We had an amazing 4 hours on the water with him, and he was patient with beginners, taking the time to show us useful tips and tricks. He’s kind, easy to talk to, and made the whole trip enjoyable. We caught nearly 25 fish, making it not just a fishing trip but a real adventure. Highly recommend booking with Captain JP!

We fished all day with just one bait—which is rare in bass fishing. I wasn’t sure at first, but then I landed a 5-pounder, followed by a 6-pounder, and even had an 8-pounder miss the hook! Add in plenty of 2–3 pounders along the way, and it was non-stop action. If you’re after BIG bass, this is the charter for you. The boat is beautiful, the gear is top-notch, and the experience is nothing but fun.

I had an incredible trip with numerous Peacock Bass, and my knuckles are swollen from catching them all. I'll definitely be giving him a call again!

Bill Wood is the REAL DEAL of bass fishing. What an awesome day- I learned so much. Our boat had first-time freshwater fishermen (me!) to more hardcore anglers and yet I can confidently say that we all learned from Bill. I hope that I can get out on the water with him again someday soon. It was a pleasure, thanks Bill!

Bill is a true Pro. He knows everything there is to know about fishing, Bass fishing, and Lake O. I had the best time on the water with Bill, and he got us right in the Bass, taught me the technique and sparked a new love for me in Bass fishing. I'm Hooked! Bill took the time to teach, and is genuinely someone you want to be around. I can't wait for my next trip with Bill! Thanks again for an amazing day on the water!

Bass fishing with Captain William Wood on Okeechobee is always a treat. He knows where the bass are located and assists in catching some great fish. His boat is well equipped and comfortable. He has great equipment and all you need to do is show up and he takes care of the rest. I use Captain Wood exclusively and have taken family and friends on many successful fishing trips. Already have another planned and I know that my guest and I will have a great day with Capt. William. This trip was for my grandson John, my son-in-law Mark, and, of course, me. Shown as friends below, which is true, but other options didn't apply. John and I had fished with Captain William before, but it was Mark's first time and we really enjoyed the smile on his face when he pull in the first big one.
