Mike and the crew were awesome! We headed out despite rough seas and they put us on fish! We brought in over 50 fish and it wore us out! Mike and Kyle were great and kept First mate Kody busy helping us out all day as the fish were coming in! He was wonderful! A+ and highly recommend them!

He was very welcoming and friendly and extremely knowledgeable and we had a wonderful time on our excursion. Can’t wait when we return on our next vacation and go out on the sound with him again. Thank you very much.

Our eco/island hopping/dolphin watching boat tour with Mike was amazing. He made sure we saw everything we came to see. My son saw dolphins in the wild up close for the first time. Each island stop was so cool seeing the different birds and water creatures. He was so knowledgeable about the history of the area. Highly recommend!!!

My dad and I really enjoyed our trip with Captain Mike. The fishing was a little slow, but that was not Mike's fault and just part of fishing. We really appreciated the genuine effort he put in to trying different spots and methods to put us on fish, which ultimately got us to catch a few Blues.
