I want to be honest in this review. we had booked a trip with Mike, and was informed a day before the trip that it would not be with Mike, but it would be with another captain.
the trip was fine. it wasnt great. it wasnt bad. we had nearly a half hour boat ride to get to the spot he wanted to fish and a half hour boat ride to get back. so right...

I want to be honest in this review. we had booked a trip with Mike, and was informed a day before the trip that it would not be with Mike, but it would be with another captain.
the trip was fine. it wasnt great. it wasnt bad. we had nearly a half hour boat ride to get to the spot he wanted to fish and a half hour boat ride to get back. so rightthere we lost 25% of our time to fish, only leaving 3 hours. we did not fish any other spots. stayed in one place. we caught about a half a dozen fish that we could keep and clean.
there were 6 of us total. 3 dads and 3 boys. the price before any type of tip was $875. Naturally we left a tip bringing the total to $1000. it was a fine trip, but unfortunately, i have to say it was not worth $1000 to fish for three hours off of the Jetty's at shell island. We had a decent time, but it was a little under-whelming.
