great experience!
Half Day Trip on February 21, 20262 adults
Firstly, Captain Mike was absolutely amazing! When a crazy snowstorm rolled in, he was so great about working with us to reschedule and made the whole process easy and stress-free. He’s incredibly personable, super knowledgeable, and made the entire trip such a fun experience. He obviously loves what he does! It was an unforgettable day, and we’ll definitely be back this summer. Captain Mike is the man!

We caught a ton of Fish
Half Day Trip on August 16, 20253 adults
Captain Mike got us on some fish! I booked thia charter with my buddy and his son (my Godson). Boat was very clean and ran well. Plenty of room for us. Good rods and plenty of live bait. The Captain was super knowledgable and new all the good spots. We caught a ton of re drum and kept our limit. Caught some monster flounder as well but they were not in season. Also caught some black drum. We kept the red drum and Captain Mike cleaned them for us. We cooked them that night and it was delicious. Highly recommend this charter.

Fishing with Captain Mike
Half Day Trip on April 18, 20264 adults1 child
Captain Mike was great he made the ppl in my group that were new to being on a boat feel safe n comfortable. We had a good day on the water even though more bites n catches would have been good but thats fishing for u. We saw several dolphins n jelly fish which was cool. Captain Mike was very knowledgeable and fun to be around n I would recommend booking a fishing trip on his boat.
