Captain Mike is a great guy with a vast amount of knowledge. He put us on the trout and if we weren’t catching, he would ask if we want to find a new spot or stay. We stayed in the intercoastal for a few, then moved to the inlet and out. The waters were pretty rough, but Captain Mike handled it like a champ. Couldn’t have asked for a better time out! Fun trip and great memories. Thanks Captain Mike!

Captain Mike was great company all day. He is very friendly and knows his fishing. I had never worked a top water lure before, but first cast I had a speckled trout blow up on it. Caught an over-slot red drum first on the TW. Then we soaked some baits and caught some black tip sharks and a bluefish. We headed a little deeper into the swamps and worked our way through some oyster banks and landed a really nice keeper red drum. Ended up with four drum. Great dinner for the family.
