Great day on the Blind Squirrel
3/4 day (6 hours) on December 23, 20258 adults

We had such a great day of fishing with Captain Mike and First Mate Daniel. Daniel was so great with the kids and they brought in some beautiful fish- they tasted pretty good too 😉 The boat was perfect, giving the boys plenty of space to fish, while giving the mom’s a relaxing spot to enjoy the day while the kids were completely entertain. Thanks Daniel for making the day fruitful and fun, and thanks Captain Mike for the fun humor, smooth navigation and restaurant advice- which turned into the best meal of the trip! Great times all around. Next time we are in Key West we will be calling.

Capt. Mike comes from a family of anglers – he started fishing the waters around New Jersey at the age of 5, on board his dad's charter boat. They competed in tournaments together, and shared a true passion for angling. At the age of 7, he caught his very own Sailfish out of Islamorada, and told his dad that someday he would fish the Florida Keys for a living. How right he was! Over 28 years ago, Capt. Mike moved to Key West and started chartering his own light tackle boat. Soon after, he purchased a 52' custom-built vessel and began running offshore adventures.
