    Another stellar trip with Captain Mike. We caught our blackfish limit in 4 hours and released fish weighing 12.5, 11, 10.5 and 9lbs. Caught and released another 30 keeper sized fish while Mike cleaned the fish. One of the most knowledgeable Captains I have fished with in 50 years and puts in 110% for the success of his customers. Thanks Mike and see you next season.

    Have a great fishing day with Captain Mike of Fishing Machine Charter. Very helpful, friendly and locate good fishing spot. Boat was clean and tidy. We all had good catch with tautog and sea bass.

    Have know Captain Mike O’Grady for quite a few years. Been fishing on the Fishing Machine for the past few years. He really knows his stuff and is a great guy. His son, Jack is learning the game from a fantastic, knowledgeable captain. We always go home with our limits of all species targeted. You won’t be disappointed if you fish with Captain Mike!

    Mike is a great Captain, has lots of fishing experience, and runs a quality operation. Always a good time and he puts you on fish! I’ve known him for many years and highly recommend his charter. 🎣👍🏼
