Half Day Trip
Captain Mike has a great demeanor! He met us at a launch convenient to us and at a time that met our schedule. He was right on time. It was incredibly windy, and cold, and absolute lowest tide of the month. The tide limited where we could fish but we were baited up and fishing in 15 minutes. Captaib Mike has an excellent boat and tackle available for any species we wanted to target. He was ready to adjust and target species on the bite and knew where to get them. Switched up to sea bass and he had the gear and bait to do it without losing any time. Once the wind & cold got the better of us under the bridge, we moved to a sunny/wind protected area to target catchfish and this great bull Red! Happily go out with Captain Mike again!

We booked last minute and so happy we found Captain Steve. We arrived early and he was already prepared to go. The boat was super clean and immediately was friendly and making sure we had all we needed. Priority one was to make sure we got on the fish and we did! Lots of sea bass and some amazing sights along the way. Highly recommend!
