We had a great time on My Ohana with Captain Mike and First Mate Shawn!  Both of them were extremely personable and engaging - something I always worry about when not knowing who I’m putting my trust and experience with. There were 6 of us, including 3 teens, so we really wanted a great experience.  Mike and Shawn did not disappoint!

First off, Mike was very quick to respond to questions during booking and I’m the weeks leading up to our trip. He gave a lot of information (when, where, what was needed, what wasn’t needed, etc.).  Next, the boat was in awesome condition.  Clean, in perfect working condition, and a great stereo system.  Nothing screams ‘awesome time’ like fishing all day to 80s rock and roll!  Mike gave a lot of details on where we were headed, what the conditions should/will look like, and the conditions under the water.  Mike worked really hard to get us on the fish.  I think we covered 46 miles!

Shawn was hands down one of the best first mates I’ve seen on a charter.  He was really engaging with us all while working his ass off! He kept the lines in the water as much as possible, clearing weeds and replacing bait with speed.  When we had fish on the lines, he was really good with the kids.  He gave them great instructions without making them feel like they were in school.  The kids really liked Shawn and talked about him for several hours after we got off of the boat. 

My Ohana, Captain Mike and Shawn are definite recommendations and I know I will be fishing with them the next chance I get!

Thank you Mike and Shawn!

Captain Erik and Tommy were great to be around. Very nice a personable people. Boat was very nice and we had great weather. We caught 1 fish within about 15 minutes and then nothing the remaining 4-5 hours of the trip. It was disappointing. I did a lot of research on the Key West area for my friends bachelor party and found this beautiful boat with very high rankings, so it’s hard not to be frustrated after putting in the time, effort, money, and travel to catch one small Mahi-mahi. Boat and crew were great, just didn’t get us on the fish that day.

This was the trip of a lifetime ... Captain Mike and his crew were incredible!!!! 31 Mahi-Mahi in 5 hours isn’t too shabby…and seeing one of his crew jump in the water amongst some sharks to see what was below is not something that happens every day. Thank you all for showing us such a good time and taking such good care of us. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town.

Excellent charter for the occasional deep sea fisher persons - only one of five had ever deep sea fished; ages from 9 months to 67 years. Captain Todd and First Mate Shawn (Sean?) worked hard to make the experience enjoyable.  They obviously know their trade, as the first mahi-mahi was on the line in the first five minutes.  Ship was in good shape too!

What we thought was going to be a terrible day on the water right after Tropical storm Fred shut down the harbor, Captain Mike and Sean made it happen. The seas were confused which made it a tough day for fishing. I think we were the only boat to bring something home. A memorable outing and we’re looking forward to the next time around.
