Capt mike and hand josh were awesome guys, down to earth, knowledgeable about fishing and their plans.  The trip out was fun (2.5 hr boat trips rarely are) with their talk and awesome music playlist that fit our tastes perfectly (country/rock/a little pop).  The fish were there and we caught plenty.  Unfortunately, the baracudas and dolphins liked us too, stealig our fish before we could land them sometimes…  but the videos and experience was awesome.  When we broke a line or missed a fish, they felt bad but didnt run us down for our lack of skill.  We had plenty of different species we landed, a lot of catch and release due to season/edibility, but still caught way too much in-season fish for the coolers.  Mike’s charter and trip were worth the drive from NM.  Cant wait to do it again.  Rarely write positive or negative experiences, but these guys did it right.  Cant go wrong with Mike/line check charters, and look forward to the next trip!
