We had a windy day and even so, Capt. Mike knew where to go. We limited out on Trout very quickly. While we only got to keep 1 Red we did catch several. We will go with Capt, Mike again in the future. I would rate this experience from 1 to 10 as a 15.

Bobby was a great captain we booked him for two days and he produced so many fish and such a great time. He knew the water as well and was a great assistant to my son in landing a huge 35 pound drum. I also got one, but I’m not talking about it.
