Capt. Mike Hennessy
Capt. Mike Hennessy has been fishing these waters for over 30 years with his Captains and mates fishing a style that brings our guests into the whole process from rigging the baits to hooking your own fish.
Some days after we catch some monster fish everyone’s arms are sore we will take a break and jump in a bait ball with mask and snorkels to watch huge tuna and Sailfish feeding all around you. The most incredible experience to watch in 85* water and calm seas. Adrenaline will be flowing!
