Capt. Mike started fishing as a hobby with his parents at the young age of 3. Family vacations were planned as fishing trips because fishing meant so much to him and his family. He caught his first snook at the very young age of 7 while fishing in and around Captiva Island, Florida. “I will always remember catching that snook because it pulled and jumped like no other fish!” said Mike. In between his saltwater fishing captain Mike fills his time bass fishing in many of the local lakes and ponds, some monster largemouth bass. His first boat was a canoe which he and his father fished in for many years. Mike had another passion which was football. Playing football was what he excelled at. He played as a free safety and had to put his football dreams on hold because of injuries and other commitments. While taking family vacations to Montana, Idaho and Wyoming Mike learned how to fly fish in the mountain streams. It did not stop in the mountains with cutthroats and graylings. 813-494-894
