Right from the start you could tell this guy was motivated. Captain Mike’s energy was on fire. He definitely loves what he does. I specifically chose the 44’ boat (not too small or big) as I this trip was on the bucket list of my 85 year old father-in-law (“Dad”). The First Mate and Captain Mike both went out of their way to make sure Dad enjoyed himself and was comfortable. You see this way a boys trip and another of our group was getting married. Dad needed to feel and be a part of the fishing game. He even reeled in a hat trick with a fish on each of three hooks on his line at one time!! We caught over 100 fish, many of which needed to be set free because out of season. I’m a lawyer so I personally appreciated following the law. We all got a workout reeling in the fish.  We ended up with plenty of fish and more than we could eat, so we each have some to take home. The boat was exactly as imagined, a fined tuned fishing instrument. Well maintained and efficient and just the right size to manage mother nature’s waves! The rods and tackle were all preset and ready to go. The First Mate was a machine! We always had plenty of bait and he was ready and waiting to help. He guided us all the way through the catching and reeling with plenty of character driven stories along the way. Captain Mike took us to at least 10 different spots as he maneuvered the fishing vessel effortlessly. He’s obviously done this a very long time. We ended with thank you, pictures, tons of memories, a happy Dad and Groom to be, along with plenty of cleaned fish, and went our merry way. Thank you Captain Mike! We will see you again!! Michael T.

We booked a half-day trip for 5 adults and 2 children (ages 8 and 4).  The charter had 4 chairs for fishing so that was disappointing as we had to take turns.  You would think they would have a boat to accommodate every paying guest!  Needless to say, the two children fished, maybe 30 minutes, but still paid the full adult price.  I would think there would be a children’s price as well as adult.  However, the first mate Josh was awesome and worked very hard to help us all catch fish and have a great time.

We had a Great 6hr. trip. My Grandsons are ages 8,9,12. Capt Mike and First mate Scott. were so patient with my boys, helping and instructing how to bait hooks, operate rod & reels. Careful with sharp hooks. Captain Mike showed my boys the operations of a fishing boat, how to drive, talk on C B radio and read fish finding equipment. No one got sick, no one got hurt. And we caught 52 fish keepers. We plan to make the adventure an annual event. Thanks Captain Mike and Scott !

One of the top 10 best days of my life.Thanks captain Mike and David for a wonderful trip, Definitely booking another trip the next time we are in Panama City!!!

We did a 6 hour bottom fishing trip.  It took almost 1.5 hours to get out to our location, but it was worth it for the action we saw.  The boat had plenty of room for 8 of us to fish at one time.  Captain Mike and Scott were excellent hosts.  This was one of the best charter experiences I have had.
