But Mike is so in tune with his side scan sonar, that even though there was no surface flipping,,he filled his two live wells with two tosses of his cast net. The bunker literally cannot hide from him.

Then we live lined them for a few hours, and we didn’t go ten consecutive minutes without a fish on, all day. We were surrounded by boats that didn’t have bunker, and i saw two fish caught all day, by all the other boats combined, while we caught fish after fish to 40 pounds.

Mikes boat is a 1 year old conch 27 footer. his equipment is all state of the art, very light tackle with plenty of strength. he and his captains not only catch fish, they’re pleasant to be with and a perfect for kids.

It’s truly a world class outfit, it’s a lot like fishing with Cohen Babcock.
Bob Huddy and I went with Mike 2 Novembers ago and crushed Bass and Albies. Great guy and knows his stuff.

No boat, back in the suds.
