ABOUT OKEECHOBEE FISHING TRIPS
Welcome to our Okeechobee fishing trips and your place to experience the thrill of Lake Okeechobee with local expert Captain Kayman Mills, guiding out of the renowned Harney Pond and Lakeport areas on the west side of Lake Okeechobee. Known as the “Big O,” this legendary fishery is one of the top destinations in the country for freshwater anglers. With its vast vegetation beds, remote backwaters, and nutrient-rich ecosystem, Lake Okeechobee is home to both trophy largemouth bass and slab crappie—two of Florida’s most sought-after game fish.
Whether you’re in search of a bucket-list trophy bass or looking for the non-stop action of crappie fishing, Capt Kayman offers fully guided trips tailored to your goals and experience level. Bass fishing trips feature the use of live wild shiners or artificial lures to target giant bass that often exceed 8 pounds. For those wanting a more relaxed outing, crappie fishing (locally known as speck fishing) is ideal for families and food anglers, with steady bites and excellent table fare during the cooler months.
Captain Kayman Mills is a professional, friendly, and passionate local guide with over 10 years of experience fishing Lake Okeechobee. Born and raised near the lake, he brings unmatched knowledge of the Harney Pond and Lakeport regions. His ability to adapt to seasonal conditions, read the water, and locate active fish gives every angler—from beginner to seasoned pro—a real edge on the water.
All trips take place aboard Capt Kayman’s 22-foot Sterling fishing vessel, powered by a 250 HP Mercury engine and outfitted for speed, safety, and comfort. Your trip includes all necessary rods, reels, tackle, bottled water, and a cooler with ice. Morning and afternoon departures are available, and up to four guests can be accommodated per trip.
