About Your Guide

Are you planning on having a fun day of inshore fishing? Well, come to beautiful Sebastian Florida to fish the Indian River where we can make that happen. Whether you are a family looking for relaxation or an enthusiastic angler, the highly experienced Capt. Mike will do his best to get you on the fish.

Come aboard his Nauticstar 227 XTS Bay Boat and get ready to catch some fish. This 23' beauty can accommodate up to 4 guests, so bring some friends along for the ride. The boat is clean and safe and is powered, by a Yamaha 250 SHO that will get you to your fishing spot in no time. Once we arrive at the fishing spot the remote-controlled trolling motor and Power Pole will keep us on the hot spot.

Capt. Mike knows the local waters and flats in and out and will help you catch the inshore specimens during your 4 or 6-hour trips. We will target many of the inshore species like Snook, Tarpon, Mangrove Snapper, Black Drum, Redfish, and Spotted Seatrout. If you are not proficient with techniques such as light tackling, jigging, popping, and spinning, Capt Mike will assist and instruct you and you will be up to speed in no time.

Capt. Mike is good with kids and will keep them busy fishing and learning about the species we catch. I provide drinks on board. (Water, Lipton Teas, and Gatorade are provided. Just bring sunglasses and snacks. Needless to mention we cover the fishing licenses of the anglers.

When you are ready for a great fishing trip, book a trip with us!
