About Your Guide

Captain Mike

Independent Guide

For Captain Mike, it all started with his love for fishing. To him it's not just a job, it’s a passion. He not only enjoys catching fish, but he loves putting people on fish and watching their excitement when they hook a big one. Being a fishing captain was always a dream of his and he is excited to have the opportunity to continuously realize that goal each and every day, and especially to share it with others. There is no better feeling than being out on the water and taking in the wildlife and surroundings. It doesn’t get much better than Florida’s Gulf Coast. It is one of the most relaxing and peaceful places on earth.

You're all set! You don't need to buy a license for this trip.

We use a cashless autopay system. We'll send you a boarding pass, and on the day of the trip, your guide will scan your boarding pass to automatically transfer the remaining balance. The only cash needed is to tip your guide (we recommend 20%).

The deposit for this trip is non-refundable (but if the weather is too bad to go out, you will still receive a credit back to your account).

If the weather doesn’t cooperate you’ll be covered by our 100% weather guarantee and you won’t lose your deposit.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
