2 Hour Trip (AM)
My wife and I went on a 2 hour inshore fishing trip with Captain Mike while visiting Florida for a long weekend. Captain Mike absolutely knows how to put you on fish quickly. Within the first few minutes my wife was reeling in a grouper! We caught a total of 7 fish in the 2 hours and missed one that we will never know what it was. Money well spent! Captain Mike is a very knowledgeable fisherman who understands the patterns and techniques needed to put fish in the boat. Super friendly. Very nice boat. A real five star experience. We would absolutely recommend Captain Mike to others and would not hesitate to reach out to him again if we return. Thanks Mike!

4 Hour Trip (AM)
This was my second trip with Captain Mikey with my 7 year old son and we had an absolute blast! Mikey took us on outshore on a half-day trip and put us right on the fish. He and Josh were extremely helpful with baiting and tying hooks, offering advice on how to handle certain species like grouper, and helping with my son. We must have caught a dozen different species of fish in that spot, including a few sand sharks (pretty neat for a Midwesterner). Captain Mikey was also extremely flexible as my 5 year old daughter wanted to come with us for a little bit, so we fished the intercoastal for about an hour and then dropped her back off before we headed outshore. Overall, I couldn't recommend Captain Mikey and Josh enough, especially if you have young kids who like to fish. They're both very friendly and patient and provided us with a fun experience!

Captain Mikey was such an amazing and energetic captain! He was very attentive to everyone’s needs, even before they arose! He was very knowledgeable about where the fish were biting at that time, and what bait was best! He was calm and caring with my young children! He made me feel very safe and cared for while on the trip! As a single momma with 3 children, that was a huge relief! Highly recommend!!!!

A storm rolled through the night before changing water temperatures on us. Captain Mike worked his butt off trying to get us fish. We ended up with 3 fish for a late dinner!
