Very experienced, personable ,hard working capt , whatever your preferred style of fishing Mike can deliver, I myself like the fast action hunt cast and move till ya find fish and he knows the area the hot spots to increase your odds for some action! his boat in my opinion is the perfect size very easy to land fish fling em right on the bow , stealthy like a bass boat . Ive fished with Capt Mike a couple x now im from Illinois often hunting smallmouth up north and this style blends right in with me, I’ve caught big Snook, Redfish , sheepshead , sea trout with Mike now catching fish is never guaranteed , weather , time of year, temperature and that has an effect on every guide but worst case scenario you’ll have good conversation, see some wildlife and gain some experience I highly recommend Capt Mike and Dragonfly and he is my go too and will be back again
Its always fun as soon as you step on the bow. I love hunting those fish the same way you do!!!!! thanks for the very kind words Kyle, very much appreciated!!!! I look forward to every fishing trip we will go on!!!!!!!! take care and I’ll see you soon. thanks again!!!!
Great communication before the trip so we could coordinate based on weather and tides. The boat is perfectly matched for the style of fishing and was ready and waiting when we arrived. I always go with guides to learn and he taught about technique, the fish, their patterns, everything. It was a great day and highly recommend!
Hey Scott, it was a pleasure watching you both throw perfect casts for tarpon all day!!!! I wish that one would have stayed on the hook!!!! Thank you so much for everything!!! Hope to fish with you again. Mike
Had a great time fishing with Mike! Great fishing, great conversation as well. Mike started early to make sure we had fresh bait and works very hard to give you a great fishing experience. Caught a few nice redfish, saw Dolphins I will definitely be doing this again with Mike next time we’re in Cape Coral!
Thank you Bob!!! That was fun, hope to fish with you again!!!
Took my son out for his first real fishing adventure. I think he might be hooked. Caught ladyfish, trout, catfish, and had a friendly visit from a dolphin. Beautiful morning! Mike knows the local history, places to hit, and is awesome to fish with! Highly recommend!
Thank you very much Brad!!!!! I hope Carson is hooked!!!! Thats great!! Take care and thanks again for everything!!!!!
Captain Mike Moran is an outstanding guide and person. He's a consummate professional and really works his tail off to put you on fish. Mike knows his trade well. He grew up fishing these waters and it shows. My wife Steph and I had an absolutely fantastic trip today and despite the tough conditions still managed to hook some really nice snook despite my crappy casting! Do yourself a favor and book a trip with Mike. He's a great guide with a beautiful skiff, and a tremendous personality. You'll be glad you did!
Today was an absolute blast fishing with you snd Steph!!! Tons of laughs, fishing and BS’ing!!!!! Thank you for your service, Mike. love the passion for life. Incredible stories had my admiration all day. It was a tough day fishing!!!!! We never threw in the towel!!!! We’d still be out there if it weren’t for somebody with some good sense(Steph)!!!!!! Hard days with awesome folks are what keeos us going. look forward to our next outing!!!!!! Thanks again for everything!!!!!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Captain Mike got his first Jon Boat when he was 11 years old and living in Fort Myers Beach. He absolutely fell in love with the salt water, mangroves, and wildlife. He's been fishing these waters for 30 years and still learns something new every day. The captain believes that's the fun in it and that we'll never figure Mother Nature out.
