Captain Michael does not run your ordinary fishing charter. He runs nighttime spearing and bow-fishing trips! The trip starts when you board his 21’ custom skiff. This flats boat is perfect for shallow waters, backcountry, and nearshore spots you’ll be visiting. She’s refurbished for nighttime fishing and has custom lighting, a trolling motor, and a quiet inverter generator. The boat accommodates up to 4 guests, so you can share this trip with your friends and loved ones. You’ll go after Flounder, Sheepshead, and Black Drum, as they are the best night targets. Since it’s impossible to leave the fish unharmed using a gig, you’ll get to keep the catch. There’s no cleaning service that late at the marina, so it’s best to bring your cooler and clean the fish the day after. Captain Michael will arm you with Cosson stainless gigs with hardened cobalt tips and bows designed for fishing. You can also feel free to bring some other beverages and your favorite snacks! Dress properly, as it can get chilly out there during the fall and winter. Book your trip now and see why so many people get hooked on nighttime fishing! Read More

    Great day scalloping with Captain Robert. Very friendly and personable. Being a local to the area, Robert was very knowledgeable of the waters and even provided recommendations of things to see, eat and drink in the nearby communities.

    Nick was a great captain for us. He's very easy to talk to, knows his way around the coast and knows fish. We scalloped but I imagine he also leads amazing fishing trips. This was my girlfriend's first day snorkelling too, and Nick made sure she was comfortable all throughout. Although we came during the less fruitful part of the scalloping season, Nick still made sure it was a memorable adventure.
