When our scheduled guide had to cancel because of fuel pump issues, we count our lucky stars that Capt. Mike Dates had availability to take us out on a 6-hour excursion. His knowledge of where the red snapper were biting was spot on. And when dolphins started stealing our catch off our lines, he maneuvered us away from them and into more prime red snapper waters. Loved the fishing experience. Capt. Mike, friendly and knowledgeable, made it so. We highly recommend him. Nick Ya paragraph.

Mike is a genuine, honest, knowledgeable guy that put us on fish immediately. Pretty much every drop of the bait was a catch! Had a blast from the get go. Nice boat and setup, everything was in order, just a fantastic afternoon trip. Ended the trip with a 40 min fight getting in a trophy Cobia! Can’t say enough good about First Shot Charter!

My two sons and I age 12 and 10 had a great time with captain Mike. He took us on the bay and we were on fish the entire time. We saw dolphins close enough to touch, a few of them even took our fish off the line for us! Thanks again Captain Mike!
