Located in Winter Haven within Polk county, Central Florida Bucketmouths Is here to give you the best freshwater fishing in all of the greater Orlando area. We’re just a short drive away from Disney World and Tampa.

Captain Monte Goodman will be leading the way on your Bass fishing trip. Capt. Monte has fished the waterways of central Florida for over 30 years, giving him an enormous amount of knowledge navigating and finding fish in the area. He has fished in plenty of tournaments and enjoys the thrill of competition. Due to his reputation as an expert bass angler, he’s been featured in numerous newspaper and magazine articles and has appeared on several TV shows including “Reel Time Florida Sportsman”. He loves to see all his passengers reeling in catches and smiling as they enjoy being out on the water.

We offer trips on all of central Florida’s top rivers and lakes including the Winter Haven chain of lakes, Lake Toho, Lake Kissimmee, Lake Istokpoga, the Harris Chain of Lakes and many more. Each trip is customized to the skill level of the customer so whether you’re a novice or a highly skilled tournament angler.

Your fishing trip will be done on the 21ft Triton bass boat powered by a 250hp Mercury Optimax Pro XS engine that can jet her up to a cruising speed of 60 knots. She can carry up to 3 guests and sports all the necessary safety and navigational equipment.

We offer trips lasting 4, 6, 8, and 10 hours long with rods, reels, tackle, and lures provided. Water and soda will also be included in the price and will be kept cold in a cooler.

Although we specialize in trophy bass fishing, we also offer trips for crappie (speckled perch), Panfish, and Catfish. Bass fishing in Central Florida is world class year-round. Between December and April, Largemouth Bass will be at their heaviest. Eight to ten-pound trophy-class fish are possible on any given day, with a chance at even a larger bass. Fish weighing in the teens are not uncommon for this area. The value of the largemouth bass as a sport fish has prompted a movement toward catch-and-release fishing, which we proudly support.

Central Florida Bucketmouths will provide, a safe, fun, educational, and exciting outing that you will be sure to enjoy. Book a trip with us today to get started on your bass fishing adventures of a lifetime!

My son and I had a great trip with Capt. Monte. We caught tons of fish and learned a bit about Florida fishing. I highly recommend this trip.
