Full Day Trip – Offshore/Gulfstream
Our family had the perfect day for fishing! I highly recommend Captain Mike Tierney and Uptick Charters. We spent a whole day fishing and were successful - catching yellow fin tuna and mahi-mahi. Captain Mike and Mate Chris were patient with the kids, explaining everything and answering all their questions - taking extra time to make our day a success. Thank you Captain Mike and Chris for a memorable trip.

Full Day Trip – Deep Sea
Awesome day on the water with Captain Mike and his mate Todd. Ended up changing the original plan to get where the fish are(but that’s the point of fishing). And instead of chasing Spanish mackerel all around we headed out way off shore to bottom fish up to 300ft of water using electric reels. Awesome day with an awesome catch, would book with captain Mike in the future.
