Michael Ikemeier

Member since March 2021 St. Petersburg, United States
Background
Captain Michael has been fishing since he could walk. Water has always been home for him. He quit his 9 to 5 to pursue his dream of working on the water. The captain would be blessed to share the experience of natural Florida with you!
Techniques
Captain Micheal loves doing a lot of light tackle fishing from offshore to inshore. Sight fishing is one of his favorite techniques for inshore and offshore trolling, and flat lining live bait is an amazing time.
