We’ve gone out with Captain Mike a few times in the past and always have had an amazing time. He always puts us on fish and makes it easy and entertaining always. Been a couple years since we’ve been out and can’t wait for the next time!

We had an awesome day of fishing with Capt. Mike Smeby. His website says "A lifetime of experience fishing St Andrews Bay and the Gulf of Mexico enabled him to obtain the designation of "Historical Captain" through the US Coast Guard. Capt. Mike's 40+ year safety record is impeccable." You can easily tell that you are on a safe boat with a Captain that really cares about you, your family and having fun on your trip.

If you call his marina or ask any local person about him, you will get told he is the best out there. If you research Pisces Charters, Panama City Beach, FL you will see exactly what I mean.

Thanks Monica. As always, enjoyed the trip with the gang. Let him know to leave the keys in the boat at the lake. Might come up and borrow it this Fall. Take care.

This was the second year that me and my dad went out with Captain Mike and we highly recommend him for a great experience. We were able to limit in two species today and we were able to carry home bags of snapper to fry up. Captain Mike is very knowledgeable and makes the trip fun for everyone. Captain Mike is the best in Panama City!

As both a commercial fisherman and avid sports fisherman, I thoroughly enjoyed fishing with them. We had a mix of novice and seasoned anglers and Mike handled both with skill. Perfect boat for a six pak, well performing equipment. You will not regret fishing with Pisces Charter.

Great Day of Fishing with Captain Mike Smeby ,Pisces Charters, took our family out for a awesome fishing trip, with no shortage of fish being brought in ! The waters were not exactly ideal but, Capt. Mike Smeby showed us what a difference a captain with 40 years Historical Captain experience can be.He put us on the Fish and kept us on Fish ! We caught Trigger fish,Vermilion Snapper and even a few Amberjack! We all had a lot of laughs and great fishing. At the end of the day everyone went went home with Big Smiles, tired arms from all the large fish caught all day , a basket full of fish and a day of Unforgettable Memories!
My family and I are 3 year return customers of Pisces Charters and plan to be returning again soon.
We recommend Pisces Charters ,Mike Smeby to anyone looking to have a exciting ,fun fishing trip ! Contact info. for Pisces Charters, Captain Mike Smeby (850)-541-4891

We want to thank Captain Mike. This man knows where the fish are and he put us on them. Mike created an enjoyable atmosphere on the boat and everyone on board had a great time and caught plenty of fish. It was an awesome experience and we look forward to another trip first chance we get. Thanks again Captain Mike!

My sons and son in law went on a trip with Captain Mike 7/31/19. It was our first deep sea fishing experience and wow! It was awesome! Captain Mike is incredible.
We got our limit on Red Snapper and had a blast. We will return next year!

My son and I had a great day of fishing with Captain Mike. Within 5 minutes of dropping our lines in the water we caught Red Snapper and Grouper. Captain Mike definitely knows where to go and how to catch em.
