I had a great time fishing with Mike, who put us on plenty of fish. We caught redfish of various sizes, along with one of the biggest sheepshead I’ve ever seen. Mike is quiet and focused, letting the fishing speak for itself. I really enjoyed the trip and would gladly book with him again!

Capt. Mike did an excellent job putting us on fish and was a great guide throughout the day. He knows the area well and switched things up once we limited out on specs. Easy 10/10.
