Captain Mike’s – Lucky Strike
Captain Mike's Charters is the longest running sports fishing company in St. Lucia. This family business has been ruling the waves for over 50 years. Join them and learn from the wisdom that can only come from decades of experience.
Captain Bruce Hackshaw is the owner of the company and is one of the top anglers on the island, having won the International Billfish Trophy a record 7 times, as well as tournaments in Antigua, Grenada, Tobago and Martinique. His passion and enthusiasm for fishing shows though in every part of his life. Fish with his crew and become infected with that passion, too.
Lucky Strike is Bruce's pride and joy. A fully refitted 50' Bertram, she combines a touch of luxury with strength and versatility to be the ultimate fish catching machine. She's fully equipped with top notch sportfishing gear, including outriggers, a fighting chair, and Penn and Shimano fishing gear. At the same time, she features all the personal comforts you could hope for, including two heads (bathrooms), a shower, and a multimedia system.
During your trip, you will be fishing the deep blue waters of the eastern Caribbean Sea. This is a hot spot for Blue and White Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Tuna, among many other deep sea fish. All the gear you need to catch them is supplied on board, and a first mate will be there to assist you through every stage of your trip.
On the off chance that you want to relax between bites, Lucky Strike's beautifully finished and air conditioned interior is the perfect place to do so. We have a feeling you'll be spending more time wrestling fish on the deck, though!
At the end of the trip, the catch will be shared between you and the crew. If you want to take some fillets with you to a local restaurant, the team at Captain Mike's will help prepare them for you.
If you've always wanted to go sportfishing like a pro, this is your chance. Make your vacation extra special this year aboard the Lucky Strike with Captain Mike's!

Mason HeidelbergRepeat angler5.0VerifiedNewAwesome trip!
3/4 Day Trip on October 31, 2026 • 4 adultsBite was slow at first. Once we found the fish the captain kept up right on them. Caught several mahi mahi and wahoo in a short amount of time. Deck crew was great as well, worked hard keeping lines running and were very personable. Will definitely book with these guys again.
John BruceRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAwesome Trip, tons of fish!
3/4 Day Trip on July 31, 2025 • 4 adultsAmazing trip. The dock was easy to find with parking available. Lucky Strike was in great shape, inside and out. Equipment was perfect for the day and the fish were everywhere. 10 total, 6 Mahi and 4 Cuda. “Fish On” within 20 min of leaving the dock. Captain Howard was knowledgeable and knows the seas and best fishing locations. Tony was one of the hardest working 1st mates I have fished with. Both were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the day. I have fished everywhere and can assure you, our trip today was one of the best. 2000ft at 2 miles off the coast saves hours of fishing time. Our Mahi tacos for dinner tonight were fantastic, thanks for the seasoning advice Tony!
Jane Sabugueiro5.0VerifiedFabulous half day fishing
Half Day Trip (AM) on January 5, 2023 • 4 adults • 1 childA really lovely day onboard Lucky Strike. We booked a half days fishing. The process was super easy and as soon as we reached Captain Mikes we were boarded and set off. We had a quick but thorough safety briefing and headed out. There were drinks (soft and beer) for us to help ourselves too. The captain and crewman were constantly scouring the horizon and changing baits and lines to give us the best chance of a good result. Thank goodness we got a bite in the final hour and landed a fish. They were full of knowledge and were brilliant with the kids showing them what to do and letting them do it. Will definitely book again on our next trip.
Justin SmithRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip!
3/4 Day Trip on April 9, 2024 • 2 adultsThe trip was great. Captain Dwight was knowledgeable and got me on a tuna almost immediately. Later I was able to land a mahi mahi. The boat was well equipped with plenty of shade and advantage points for great views. We were fortunate and even saw a blue whale and her calf. The bath room was clean. The crew was accomadating and friendly.

Half Day Trip (AM) on November 24, 2025 • 6 adultsThe boat was highly rated when I researched and the Captain and crew were adequate. We did catch a fish. Nothing above and beyond the basics to earn a higher rating
Jeff Edler5.0VerifiedCaught the fish of a lifetime!!
Full Day Trip on August 14, 2023 • 5 adults • 1 childWe took out the Lucky Strike and stuck it big!! We hooked into a massive blue marlin. While we didn't get the fish in We got awesome pictures and a video of the fight. Mario and Tony (crew of the Lucky Strike) estimated the fish between 650-750 lbs. What an awesome fight. Thank you Capt. Mikes!!!
Oliver McdonaldRepeat angler5.0VerifiedCaptain Mike’s
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 29, 2024 • 4 adults • 2 childrenUnbelievable day. Caught 3 large Wahoo and 6 barracuda on a four hour morning trip. Crew was great!
Bryan Jaroch5.0VerifiedAmazing catch
Half Day Trip (AM) on March 29, 2023 • 5 adults • 1 childWe called the trip short just 2 hours in cuz my fiance got sea sick but everyone still landed 1 fish each and my nephew got 3 small fish on top. I attached a pic to show what we caught
Aaron StangerRepeat angler4.3VerifiedGreat People, great crew
Half Day Trip (AM) on October 12, 2023 • 2 adultsOur crew were great guys, constantly working to try and catch a marlin/sail for us. We didn’t have any luck with billfish, but did catch a few barracuda as expected in these waters, and one Mahi. Would definitely give them a try!
Christopher Wood5.0VerifiedHalf Day with Cap Mike
Half Day Trip (PM) on October 13, 2022 • 4 adultsGreat afternoon fishing. Tough shift for the crew as we trawled for the big fish and eventually hooked a sailfish. Boat comfy and plenty laughs had. Would recommend.
