Captain Mike possesses extensive knowledge and is dedicated to ensuring a successful fishing experience for you, targeting the specific fish you're after, using the appropriate bait. Mike goes the extra mile to create a memorable trip that my wife, son, and I will always cherish. I wholeheartedly recommend Mike and his impressive dorado boat. When we stepped on board and saw the St. Croix poles, I had a feeling it would be an excellent excursion. Unlike some charters with subpar equipment, Mike provides top-notch gear, ensuring a successful trip. He even worked tirelessly until the last minute to help my son catch a bigger fish than mine, a moment my boy won't let me forget, but that's exactly what I was hoping for and thoroughly enjoyed.

My family and I embarked on a two-hour journey with Captain Mike, and from start to finish, he proved to be an exceptionally professional and courteous guide. Initially, I had reserved an 8 am trip, but Captain Mike suggested a slightly later departure to take advantage of a more favorable incoming tide. This seemingly minor adjustment demonstrated Captain Mike's commitment to ensuring we had the best possible experience during our brief time together. And what a fantastic suggestion it turned out to be! The photo above captures just four of the numerous oversized redfish we reeled in. From the moment our lines touched the water, the big catches kept coming. This excursion felt like a truly unique experience, and I genuinely consider sharing it with Captain Mike and my family to be priceless. Still finding it hard to put into words, I eagerly anticipate returning to Clearwater for another fishing adventure with Captain Mike.

An amazing experience with Captain Mike! A true professional and expert guide, he took our party of four to a fantastic reef, resulting in a total catch of around 35 fish, from red snappers to groupers. Captain Mike ensured everyone had bait, expertly chummed the waters, and even filleted the fish afterward. Highly recommend for a great day on the water! Thanks, Captain Mike!

We had an incredible time with Captain Mike! He proved to be the best captain, getting us on the fish right away. From the moment the engine turned off, we were reeling in catches. Captain Mike treated my kids like his own, coaching them and ensuring they caught fish throughout the entire trip. Each catch felt as thrilling as winning a trophy. We had an absolute blast, and my kids enjoyed every moment with Captain Mike. I'll definitely be fishing with him again and again. Thank you, Captain Mike – you're my go-to captain!

My son Ryder and I had a fantastic time during Ryder's first coastal boat fishing adventure. Mikey took excellent care of us, displaying patience as he taught Ryder how to bait a hook and cast. Ryder landed several impressive fish and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I'll definitely choose Mikey again when we're in the area. Thanks! Chris
