Michael Harter

Member since December 2022 Westminster, United States
Background
Capt. Mike runs trips out of Westminster aboard a 21’ Nitro and 22' Bennington Pontoon. These waters are known for Bass and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or jigging. With great knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
Techniques
Live bait, spoons and trolling for stripers. Artificial baits for large mouth and sootted bass.
