Jack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Mike Szabo consistently delivers exceptional fishing results on Lake Ida, with customers regularly catching 30-50 fish per trip including Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, Clown Knifefish, and exotic species like Snakehead. His deep knowledge of the lake's winding canals and fishing spots means he quickly relocates when the bite slows down, keeping clients on fish all day. Multiple guests report losing count after catching over a dozen fish in just the first hour, with some landing personal best Peacock Bass even in challenging conditions. Customers consistently praise Mike's hands-on approach and patience, especially with families and children. He handles all the details from baiting hooks to setting up rods, while teaching fishing techniques along the way. Parents appreciate how he works hard to ensure kids have success on the water, with many young anglers catching their first bass and talking about the experience long afterward. Repeat customers and strong recommendations are common, with guests already planning their next trips before leaving the dock.

Captain Cody had us on the fish in no time, and before we knew it, we’d caught over 30! His gear is top-notch, and his knowledge of Lake Ida really shows. He stayed on top of everything—rebaiting hooks, keeping us fishing, and making sure we had a great time on the water.

JP is an excellent guide who knows exactly where to take you and how to make the experience memorable. We had a great time on the water, and I even landed a few fish. The trip was absolutely worth it—highly recommend booking with JP. Thanks again, and looking forward to the next one!

Our first Florida fishing trip couldn’t have gone better. I booked a 6-hour outing on Lake Ida with Captain Brett for my wife and me, and everything from start to finish was smooth. Communication before the trip was quick and easy, and we met him right on time at the dock that morning. It was a fun day exploring the lake and its winding canals as we moved from one fishing spot to another. Captain Brett made everything effortless—setting up our rods, baiting lines, and sharing tips along the way. He knew every part of the lake and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. By the end of the day, we’d caught Clown Knifefish, Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, and a few native Cichlids. Captain Brett truly knows his stuff and made the whole experience enjoyable. We can’t wait to come back and fish Florida again!

Captain Bobby Kimble is the real deal. He knows South Florida’s fisheries inside and out and will put you right on the fish. My dad and I both caught our personal best Peacock Bass with him, even with the bite slowing down before the polar vortex. Bobby’s skill, patience, and expertise made the trip unforgettable. We’d recommend him to anyone looking for both quality and quantity on the water.

We had an amazing time with Mike! We caught a bunch of Peacock Bass, Largemouth Bass, and even some Catfish. Mike was incredibly helpful and made sure we had plenty of time to fish during our trip. I highly recommend him as a guide for the Lake Ida region.
