Large Southerns Stingrays moving in with the warmer weather with a surprise school of large bluefish. Black drum, sheepshead, and mangrove snappers have been piled up as well.
Just had an incredible black drum fishing experience! Reeling in those big beauties was a thrilling challenge I won't soon forget.
Ratings & Reviews Summary

Mike…on top of just being a really cool guy…will put you on the fish. Highly recommend you spend a few hours with him!

Boat was immaculately clean, Mike was friendly, professional, and went out of his way to ensure that we had ample opportunity to catch some fish as conditions weren't perfect out for them. Even with less opportunity, we had a blast on our trip and if we decide to go on another charter, it will be with Captain Mike, the bow fishing experience really set itself apart from other charters. We spent the trip completely comfortable (as comfortable as you can be on a fishing boat) and Mike was talkative with us, but also quiet when we were focused on looking for fish. I don't think we could have asked for a better guide to match whatever your vibe may be for enjoying some late-night fishing.
