jackAiIconJack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Mike consistently delivers exceptional fishing results, targeting speckled trout, redfish, black drum, flounder, and sheepshead across Galveston Bay's prime locations. His expertise shines through precise timing predictions, like calling afternoon bites at 1:30 PM and delivering exactly as promised. Mike teaches valuable saltwater techniques to bass fishermen transitioning to bay fishing, provides light tackle instruction for memorable catches, and maintains a spotless, state-of-the-art boat that accommodates groups comfortably. Mike creates a welcoming family atmosphere that puts first-time anglers completely at ease. He patiently guides beginners through their very first casts, helps experienced wives who've never boat fished land impressive catches, and makes newcomers feel like seasoned pros. His personable nature and willingness to share meals with guests creates lasting memories beyond just fishing. Customers consistently book repeat trips and call him a "good dude" and "stellar" guide.

Capt Mike is an awesome guide. He’s very knowledgeable about the area and gave great pointers throughout our trip. The boat is clean and was easy to accommodate our 3 people. I will definitely use Mike again next time the water calls to us!

This was my husband's first time to ever fish. His first cast, he caught his first fish! Captain Michael was very patient and kind when explaining the basics of fishing. My husband caught on in no time. I had not gone fishing in 10 years. With a few pointers and reminders, I was back in the game. We would definitely recommend Captain Michael and this trip and plan to book with him again in the summer.
