"
I have been fishing with Capt. Larry for almost ten years. During that
time we have probably been on 200 or so trips of various types. I have
brought many different friends, family and colleagues along on these
trips and all have concluded that Capt. Larry is the best fishing guide
they have ever been with. He is a master teacher of the fundamentals
from proper rod & reel choices and operation of those many different
types, to presentation of lures and baits and fighting and landing all
types of fish.
He is also is a master rod builder and has taught me to
make finer custom rods than I ever thought I could.
Our fishing trips
have always been successful with over half of those trips bordering on
unbelievable. If it were not for the hundreds of pictures I have of
those trips people would surely think I was making up fish stories. From
Snook to Redfish and even freshwater Bass he is unsurpassed in his
profession.
I now purchase Blocks of ten trips at a time to ensure
securing dates to fish with Capt. Larry. Thanks for all the great
fishing and memories over the last ten years and I am looking forward
to the next Ten.

"Redfish? They are huge in Mosquito Lagoon, and with Capt. Larry L. Fowler's techniques they are fun to catch.
While fishing a daytime trip with Capt. Larry, I caught and released my biggest ever Redfish as well, a 25 pound+ model, on 6 pound test. Oh yeah, big fun! Took 20 minutes.
My first trip with Larry, I broke my big Snook record 5 times in 6 hours.
During those 4 trips, I also hooked and lost several Snook which I am SURE went over 20 pounds,
but since I was a bit inexperienced, or unprepared mentally, I let them beat me.
My biggest Snook with Larry so far, was a 24 pounder. On my most recent trip with Larry, we caught and released over 30 10lb and over Snook. We only fished 3 hours.
On every trip with Larry, I learn more and more about what I am doing. Folks, I have been fishing for 40 years. I am no rookie. Still, I learned more in one night than I did in 10 years of fishing for Snook on my own.
Is it worth it to go fishing with Larry? You bet it is. He is like a teacher and a coach at the same time, telling you why we do things, showing you how to do them, then coaching you as you do them yourself.
Want to catch a big Snook? Go fishing with Capt. Larry. You WILL catch a 10lb Snook, probably several of them."

(P.S. on a further note, Captain Larry is doing much less of the Snook trips, but he will go if you beg him and bring enough money. This trip is not for the faint hearted or the budget minded. But it is SOOO worth it!)

"Thanks for a great snook fishing trip. I have not caught so many nice
fish in a long time. I lost count but I would guess we probably caught
14 or 15 snook all in the 10 to 25lb. range. It seems than on every pass we hooked up! We also caught the 30lb. Tarpon that did a
great job getting me wet and the nice redfish that put a good bend on my
partner's homemade rod. There is no reason to travel all over the world
having your fishing spots in our state.
I also thank you for spending the time teaching me about rods, reels,
hooks, baits and all the techniques for successful snook fishing. Very
few guides spend the time teaching their clients how to be successful
fishermen.
Thanks again and I am looking forward to our next trip."
