Our family of four had a wonderful fishing experience with Capt Mike! My girls, 7 and 10, had a blast catching fish, playing with the live shrimp bait, seeing dolphins, and even feeding pelicans at the end of the trip. We caught plenty, including a 25inch redfish, but only kept five to eat and released the rest. Capt Mike filleted the fish for us and we had it blackened and fried at a restaurant on the island. Def recommend fishing with Capt Mike!
Trip was super fun with the family, captain Michael definitely made it a memorable trip if your looking for a good time out in the water I definitely recommend paradise charters
We had an awesome time! Mike was knowledgeable and took us to all of the good spots. He had a lot of patience with baiting and casting for those of us that struggled (me). He also gave a lot of good tips as well. We will definitely book with Mike again when we come back down. Thanks for the great memories Mike!
Highly recommend this fishing trip. Had an amazing time, brought our dog along, and got into some fish! 5 stars!!
