Fishing, fishing, fishing; it’s what I love to do! Come enjoy a day on the water with me. Whether you want to go offshore, inshore, or hit the backcountry, we can accommodate all options: weather permitting. My backcountry ride is a custom-designed 25′ West End bay boat — a tournament-grade guide machine built from the ground up for the shallow waters of Florida Bay and Everglades National Park. She is extra wide and stable, with an 8′6″ beam and a double-step hull, powered by a 300hp Yamaha on a 22″ Porta Bracket, and decked out with a Minn Kota iPilot trolling motor, Simrad electronics with LiveScope and side scan, a Power-Pole, two livewells and comfortable seating — a stable fishing platform for the whole family to enjoy. Thinking about customizing a trip? Are you interested in snorkeling and fishing? All you have to do is ask. We also offer lobster trips during season. If you don’t want to get wet, let’s try nighttime lobstering by “bullynetting,” using high-powered lights and dip nets to catch our target.

The Florida Keys have always held a special place in my heart. I grew up in a large fishing family that would spend as much time fishing as possible, wherever it may be in the world. In 2008, I graduated college and made the fulltime move to Islamorada. I started out as a mate on the offshore side of things and was fortunate to be a part of several tournament-winning teams. Throughout the years I grew an interest in the backcountry, so I bought my own boat and started exploring. Whether you are an experienced angler and have a specific species you want to catch or just want enjoy the day on the water with the family and rod bending action, we can accommodate all needs. Looking forward to fishing with you. Capt. Mike

Inshore and backcountry trips target snook, tarpon, redfish, speckled trout, bonefish, permit and sharks around Islamorada, Florida Bay, Cape Sable and Everglades National Park, with seasonal runs of permit, cobia, Spanish mackerel and tripletail. All tackle, live bait, ice and a blanket fishing license are provided — just bring what you’d like to eat and drink. We harvest mangrove snapper and speckled trout for dinner and release the sportfish, and we’ll fillet and bag your keepers back at the dock.
