Captain Mike was awesome
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on September 6, 20263 adults1 child

Captain Mike was awesome with my kids teaching them the best bottom fishing techniques. They both caught a bunch of fish and quite a few keepers. We made the best fresh fish tacos when we got home with the sea bass we caught. We still have more for the next 2 nights! Great time could not recommend enough.

Michael was very professional, safety conscious and knowledgeable. Caught several fish and he brought us to the south side of block island where we were catching sharks. Highly recommend his charter and would certainly use him again in the future

Captain Mikes Trip was fantastic. I am an experienced angler from the south and came up north and took a trip with captain mike in Rhode Island and Block Island areas and it couldnt of went better. Caught good sized fish, and went home with dinner. 10/10. He is professional and knows what he is doing. 100% will be booking again with him when im in the area again!

5 Hour Trip – Nearshore (AM) on July 8, 20262 adults2 children

Great trip with Michael! He was professional, friendly, and gave us honest advice about the best option for the day. The boat was comfortable for our family and the fishing was excellent. We caught 4 big striped bass and a lot of black sea bass. Michael knows the local waters very well and worked hard to put us on fish. Highly recommended!
