Depending on the time of the day and time of the year you can encounter various types of fish from Cobia and Kingfish to Snapper and Sharks. Additionally, you can try your luck with several fishing techniques light and heavy tackle, bottom fishing, and trolling. No matter what method or species combo you settle on, Captain Mike will use his 35 years of experience to help you get your catch. More importantly, he’ll make sure you’re safe while you’re having fun!

You leave St. Augustine shore on a Wellcraft Scarab (central console) model from 1984, which has recently been totally restored(2020).

I set up a fishing trip with Captain Mike as part of my buddies bachelor party and could not have asked for a better experience. Capt. Mike was extremely professional and was an excellent guide. He personally reached out to me a few days before our scheduled departure to check in and see if I had any questions and give me more details. The morning of the trip Captain Mike had everything set up and waiting for us when we arrived to the dock. I was very impressed with how organized he was. The Captain wasted no time getting us on fish and the entire group started reeling them in one after the other. At the conclusion of the trip Captain Mike cleaned all of the fish we caught and bagged up the filets for us to take home. I would highly recommend Captain Mike to everyone. My buddies and I had a great time!
