Fishing has been good on artificial baits, trout, and flounder along the Intracoastal waterway. Redfish have started showing up in schools on the flats and are eating artificial and fresh cut bait.

Fishing has been pretty good given the amount of rain that we have had in the past week. With the storms wind has been pretty calm and some schools of reds and black drum have been popping up. Trout have still been pretty productive along with flounder in the Intracoastal...

Mike knew the bay very well and did his best to put us on fish. I only had two issues with the trip. It might just be his personality, but I found him to be condescending when I asked questions. I also think he fishes too much. It was like we paid to take him fishing.

What an outstanding time that we had with Captain Mike. This was our very first time boat fishing and we had done so at the request of my son for his 17th birthday. Captain Mike was incredibly accommodating, very easy to communicate with and more importantly knowledgeable when it comes to fishing. He was incredibly patient, taught each person in our group of four how to properly cast and really made sure that we had a good time (and also made sure we caught our limit, I have no doubt he would have stayed out there all day to make it happen.) I'm new at this but I am sure this is the type of experience you hope for with this sort of activity. Book this gut y'all. I PROMISE you that you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Captain Mike for a memorable experience!!!!!
