Great time on the water with Captain Mike

Thank you captain mike for an awesome experience. Mike is an experienced charter captain with amazing local knowledge. He provided clear pick up instructions and live bait. He rigged everything for us as well. My brother in law and I both caught our targeted species. Mike was transparent about the conditions and we changed spots multiple times to get what we were looking for. FIVE STARS.

Mike was wonderful! From the start he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the trip fun! He reached out beforehand to tell us it was going to be tough getting them to bite, but with his expertise we were able to bring some into the boat! Definitely recommend Captain Mike!

Capt. Mike was great. I said I would like to catch a few big ones and boy did we ever. I thought the one I caught was big, then my daughter reeled one in even bigger. Definitely made memories. See you on the next one Capt Mike.

Even in the midst of the water being out due to wind and weather. He still worked hard to make the trip memorable. 10 out of 10 would choose him again. Great conversation and great hospitality. Can’t wait until next year

If Captain Mike can’t put you on fish, nobody will! Dude knows his stuff, and a great guy to go fish with. Highly recommend going with him if you’re in the area, even in a slow time for fishing he managed to put us on a good amount of fish.
