Great time catching tails

Offshore Adventure4 adults

Captain Mike had a game plan and we executed! The boat and equipment is top tier followed by a great captain leading the way. We brought back a cooler full of meat and had an all around great time. Thanks Captain Mike

We do put a lot of pre-work in for these trips to give us our best possible shot at fish, I’m glad it shows. Thank you so much for the gratuities and for taking the time to leave a review! Hope to see you all again soon.

    Amazing trip with Captain Mike

    1-2 PASSENGER- 9 Hour Coronado • 2 adults

    I booked a trip with Captain Mike for my Son and I. The boat is comfortable and spacious. Captain Mike has all the gear you need for all different types of fishing to maximize the chances to catch a variety of fish. The boat is quick. Getting you on the fishing grounds in no time...There are drinks and snacks provided as well. Captain Mike is very communicative and transparent. Very friendly and accommodating. He goes above on beyond to get you all the fish on your bucket list. He is very helpful and open to teaching you some fishing information if you are interested. My son is getting into fishing and Captain Mike spent time talking to him and giving him some pointers on rigs, spots to fish and techniques. From my perspective that is wholesome and amazing. It set a last impression on my son and he was out fishing the following day. The reality of fishing is sometimes those fish just dont bite. For us it didnt matter. We had a blast out in the water hooking up on plenty of other species of fish we never caught before. Some we never knew about we wanted on our bucket list and a few surprise catches as well. I highly recommend booking a fishing trip with Captain Mike. I promise you will not be disappointed.

    Great Day with Captain Mike

    9 Hour–Coronado Adventure! • 2 adults

    It is very clear Captain Mike cares about his clients. We spent the morning trying to find the fish, which we eventually did. Once that happened we pulled a large number of Mahi and Yellowtail into the boat. It was non-stop for several hours there, and we did very well. Mike is friendly, knowledgable and just a great guy. Would definitely do a charter with him and his boat again. His boat is also very fast, saving a bunch of time getting to where we needed to go and getting back to the marina as well.

    Amazing adventure!

    Full Day Trip – Inshore • 4 adults

    we have charted fishing boats all over the country. Captain Mike knows where the fish are and how to catch them! The boat is well equipped with a nice cabin (with bathroom) and a smooth and fast ride, which allows us to get to the fishing grounds way before anyone else! Plenty of seats and very comfortable. We not caught tons of fish, and saw sea lions and even a whale. We will be back! highly recommend!
