We had an awesome experience with Captain Mike! Every spot he took us we caught fish almost immediately. We saw manatees and even had to move due to dolphins attempting to steal our fish. He made sure the kids were always baited with lines in the water. He cleaned and fileted our catches. It was a wonderful experience with a great meal at the end. We would 100% fish with him again. Thank you Captain Mike!

Capt Mike took me and my family out on a four hour fishing trip. We had the best time with him. He answered all of our questions and kept us on fish the whole time. His knowledge and expertise of the local fishing area are second to none. I have fished with multiple charter outfits before and he is by far one of the best. The moment he picked us up we felt right at home on his boat. He gave casting and technique lessons to our group. The ones with no experience, he baited their hooks and took the fish off. I will definitely be coming back again next year. Price was reasonable for the amount of time and work he put in to make sure our experience was top notch. Thanks Capt Mike keep up the great work.

Captain Mike and First Mate AJ were amazing! They found us the perfect spots to get fish on! We started the day chumming the waters and getting our own bait then, headed out! My kids had a blast and the guys worked so well with them! The marina was easy to find and so was booking! 10/10 highly recommend and will do again!

Capt. Mike and AJ were awesome. I have been fishing with several charter services and had great experiences. I can say that this was at the top of our list. We caught our limit and had an amazing time in the process. Capt. Mike and AJ did everything we could have asked for. The Captain put us on the fish and AJ was an amazing first mate. He could not do enough for us the entire time. We will definitely go back out with them knowing we are in great hands.
