First Shot Charters is the Best! Captain Mike is a Master of his Craft. Going out for our First time on his 20ft boat was the perfect fit for me and my 2 sons. Captain Mike Skillfully navigated the waters, reading his Lowrance (FishFinder) screens like Neo from the Matrix. He landed us in great spots for an overall amazing fishing experience. He plays great music and answers any questions with an educational stance. We learned a lot and had the best time. First Shot Charters is the Way to go.... Meer

Captain Mike was awesome, he put us on baitfish early in the morning caught a big black snapper while trolling another while drop fishing and a king mackrel and missed about four more caught several bonitas which fight really good and fun to catch. We even hooked about a 9’ bull shark that we fought for a good hour before it cut our line, but we did get him to the top of the water to get to see him. Awesome day. Captain Mike was very knowledgeable knew where to go and was a down to earth fun... Meer

Captain Mike Dates was incredible it was our second time being taken out by him and it was awesome. We caught bait fish searched for fish caught a few different species then spent the last hour fighting a shark. The fishing was hard because of the weather but the Captain kept trying different ways to get us on something we had an amazing time and will be coming back again and continuing our fishing with First Shot!

Our group included inexperienced fishermen and Captain Mike was patient and took the time to point out unique features of the fish we caught. We took the 5 hour trip and were able to try some different techniques. It was a great day on the water!

My friends and i had a bast! We caught Trigger fish, snapper, grouper and Amber jack and it was the best 4 hours we have ever had with Mike! Mike was great and attentive and really on point!
