What a great day out on the water with Captain Michael of Big Fin Charters. He is a true fishing professional who knows what he is doing. He put us on the fish right from the get go. We caught Bonnet Head Sharks, Dusky Sharks, Mangrove, Black Drum,  and Catfish. Captain Michael was super entertaining and had great stories while he was working hard to constantly check our lines adiust the boat but keeping us on the fish even in the downpour of the “stinging” rain! Great guy and a great captain we are definitely coming back to fish with Captain Michael and Big Fin Charters!!

We booked a three hour River trip with Michael. He did a great job of staying in communication given the windy weather during our visit to Amelia Island. Despite the weather, we still caught a couple of fish our kids had fun.

My dad and I went on the sunrise trip and it was a great experience all around. The captain is knowledgeable and knows the best spots to anchor at, we were lucky to catch 3 black drummers (35-40 pounds), a red drummer (30 pounds), and several smaller fish. If you are planning a trip to Amelia Island, you need to check out this charter for some wonderful fish to bring back home!

Wow, what a day!  Captain Mike and mate Ty work hard to put you on good fish!  They’re serious about fishing and they know what they’re doing.  We left exhausted which means… best day ever on the water with my family!

Our Vegas party of 3 all got some action today. Aside from a couple of sharks taking over the hottest space we were in, the fishing was still good all around. It was clear Michael has been doing this a long time. Not sure if we’ll make it out to this part of Florida again, but if we do, we’ll book another trip with Michael.
