Captain Mike and Captain Tim jointly run there charter operation. Captain Tim started with one small charter boat and has since grown to have three! With his children captaining the other two they can run continuous tours throughout the year.

While both Mike and Tim are incredible captains and even better people, Captain Mike has filled the gap to run trips most often while Tim has taken a step back to run more of the logistical side of the business. Captain Tim still gets out there when he can, to run trips jointly or when Mike has a prior engagement. Both love their job – it's a chance to target big game species every day! While its almost always Mike, both captains are always after the biggest and fastest species out there – Sailfish, Tuna, Shark... and they can't wait to share their passion with you.

My son and I went on a 4 hour fishing trip from Pompano Beach through the Hillsboro Beach Inlet. Captain Dave and mate Tom crewed the boat. They were both professional and very friendly. They made us feel welcome immediately and Captain Dave in particular showed interest in my son who had not been on a deep sea trip previously.

They both made the utmost efforts to find us fish. They told us that the morning trip had been pretty quite but they did a lot to find fish, which they did. We ended up landing 5 fish of different species and Tom was kind enough as well as skilled enough to clean the Mahi Mahi and Black Tuna for us to take with us.

I would definitely go out with them again the next time we go.
