We were a little concerned when we got to the boat because Capt. Mike said that, due to weather, fishing had been off for the past couple of days. But, with Mike's great local knowledge and superb boat handling, he put us right on our tarpon targets as soon as we reached the fishing grounds. The result: three for three on tarpon in the 40, 70, and 100+ pound categories plus a 100+ pound black tip shark as a bonus. Mike has a mate/trainee, Sarah, who was just plain great. Her very knowledgeable coaching and enthusiastic encouragement made fighting these big fish easy for us novices very enjoyable. We would book with Mike and Sarah in a heartbeat.
Absolutely Incredible Experience — Book This Trip! I can’t say enough great things about Jersey Key Charters. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was top-notch. The captain was incredibly knowledgeable — clearly knows these waters inside and out — and made me and my son feel welcome. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a full day on the water. And the scenery? Stunning. The Florida Keys never disappoint, and seeing them from the water is something else entirely. But the real highlight? We absolutely hammered the fish. Came home with a fantastic catch and memories that’ll last a long time. The captain put us right on the fish and kept us productive all day long. Highly, highly recommend. Will be back!
My son and I just got back from an incredible trip with Captain Mike, and I can't recommend him enough. We were looking to land some big fish, and Mike delivered an unforgettable experience. He knows these waters inside and out and is a great captain—patient, professional, and determined to get us on the fish. Watching my son hook into multiple tarpon was the highlight of our vacation. If you’re looking for a top-tier charter that's great for families and serious anglers alike, Mike is your guy.
We had the pleasure of spending a morning fishing with Mike. He took us to several spots. Fish were a bit fickle but we caught some snapper for dinner. Mike is a guy who gets just as excited as his guests when the fish are hitting the bait. He was happy to answer all our questions concerning gear, technique and tactics since fishing here is very different from catching salmon or Walleye in Wisconsin! Highly recommend scheduling a session with him.
Mike was awesome! Got us on fish. We hit our limit on the mangroves and my wife topped it off with a big mutton snapper and bonnet head shark!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Growing up with a captain for a father, Captain Michael was always on the water. He began as a first mate and worked his way up to being a full-time captain in 2008. Having spent summers in New Jersey and his winters in the Florida Keys, he relocated permanently to run his business out of Marathon, FL.
