About Your Guide

Captain Mike

Outfitter

Captain Mike and Captain Tim jointly run there charter operation. Captain Tim started with one small charter boat and has since grown to have three! With his children captaining the other two they can run continuous tours throughout the year.

While both Mike and Tim are incredible captains and even better people, Captain Mike has filled the gap to run trips most often while Tim has taken a step back to run more of the logistical side of the business. Captain Tim still gets out there when he can, to run trips jointly or when Mike has a prior engagement. Both love their job – it's a chance to target big game species every day! While its almost always Mike, both captains are always after the biggest and fastest species out there – Sailfish, Tuna, Shark... and they can't wait to share their passion with you.
