Full Day Trip - Bottom Fishing

Great Day with Captain Mike and Crew

VERIFIED

Spent 8 hours fishing haddock and reds with captain Mike and Jeff. Provided breakfast, lunch and drinks for the entire trip. Captain put us on the fish and filled my cooler with enough fish to feed my crew of 8 for several meals. Also provided a great fish taco recipe for the catch. The boat was clean and comfortable, couldn't have asked for a better trip. Can't wait to tuna fish with Captain Mike in the summer.

Full Day Trip - Bluefin Tuna

Full Day Charter with Captain Mike

I've fished many full days on Line Changes with Captain Mike. His knowledge of local waters is outstanding as is his seamanship. His vessel, Line Changes, is a 28' Carolina Classic with a wide beam that serves as the perfect platform inshore or off. Guests will find that Mike's angling experience and intuition produce real results. He knows that success is achieved by thrashing; can't catch anything if the hook's not in the water. Be prepared to fish! Mike's a good man with a good sense of humor and he puts you on the protein.
