3/4 Day Trip on August 15, 2024

Thanks for a great trip Mike! Very good communicator, talked at least 3 times before the the trip. He wanted to know our expectations and give us our options. We ended up starting earlier than advertised which was okay with us. So we headed out for speckled trout to his previously very productive spot that was serving him well. But today was a different story we got 3 legal fish on our first 3 drifts plus a few other species n and few throw backs. So two hours in he talked to a few buddies of his and they told him that there's a good bluefish bite going on two miles east. So he asked us what we wanted to do, stay n work on some limits or go catching. So we decided to go catching. So that two miles away was actually seventeen, since we were in the sound n the bite was in the ocean, which was discussed ahead of time. So off we went over an hour later we arrived. Once we got set up it was FISH ON! Got twenty+ blues in a little over an hour with some really nice ones mixed in with the the average ones. Thanks again Mike

Half Day Trip (PM) on June 20, 2025

Mike was awesome. He made sure everyone had a good time. We caught 15 blues, one large red drum. Our son caught a sting ray and my husband lost all of the fishing line after a dolphin ate the fish that was on the hook and took off. Would book with Mike again

3/4 Day Trip on May 19, 2025

He worked hard finding and putting us on fish. Above and beyond in my opinion. Patient and well prepared. He turned a slow start in to us tapping out with sore shoulders and 3 citation sized sheepshead and hours of great memories. Great captain and works hard to give you your best trip.

Half Day Trip (AM) on August 28, 2024

My friend, son, and I chartered a 1/2 day morning trip with Capt Mike. Mike’s boat was well equipped and Mike was well prepared and professional. He took the time to answer the questions my son had and went above and beyond to make sure we had an fun trip. Mike’s vast local knowledge and willingness to run to multiple spots put us on fish we were targeting even on a day with a slow bite. Would recommend and will charter again with Capt Mike.
