Captain
Mike Chapman

Member since March 2017 Port St. Joe, United States
Background
I am a second generation captain. I grew up commercial fishing the central and northern California coast. In the early 2000's, I moved to the south to run crew boats in the Louisiana oil industry, which I did for ten years. I have operated boats, fished in three oceans and have a lifetime of experience on the sea.
Techniques
I like trolling and throwing artificial baits, but most of all, I like catching. So if bottom fishing on live or dead bait is where the bite is, then so am I.

We liked Capt.Mike, but whoever prepares the trip could have done better with bait and equipment.
