Mike Cybak

Member since August 2018 Texas City, United States
Background
I am the owner and the operator of Corks And Croakers and I have been fishing the Galveston Bay complex for over 15 years. Boating, fishing, and being on the water are the things I enjoy the most. I have participated in many charity tournaments and guided many anglers in preparation for such competitions. My biggest catch is a 29 inch Speckled Trout.
Techniques
I like to teach anglers the art of live bait fishing to be more successful on the water or off the bank. I enjoy throwing artificial baits as well.
