10 Hour Fishing Trip Captain Mike's favorite trip. 12 hours provides more fishing time and a chance to get well offshore to the areas we don’t fish every day. Best chance for the bigger fish such as Greater Amberjack (Seasonal), Big Red Snapper (Seasonal), Grouper (Seasonal), Scamp and Bull Mingos. Offshore trolling for King Mackerel, BlackFin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi and Bonita.

How did you get started guiding?

I had been Commercial fishing then I was offered a job on a charter boat job with Capt. Ed Shields as 1st Mate. I fished with him for 8 years.

What makes you different from other guides?

It's all about having fun and catching fish. We love families, there is nothing better than watching them grow up and then bring their own kids fishing with us.

Mike and his deckhand were very good. I had a crew that never been offshore fishing before. Mostly kids and they were amazing showing then what to do and helping them in every way. We had an awesome time with them and I would recommend him and his crew if you looking to experience it.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
