Meet Captain Mike of Fire Line Charters

Captain Mike Kyp with Fire Line Charters, life on the water is more than a profession— it’s in his blood. Growing up at his family’s fish camp on Lake Beresford, he was piloting boats before most kids could pedal a bike. That early immersion sparked a lifelong passion for all things aquatic, from fishing and surfing to scuba diving and spearfishing. Today, his connection to Florida’s waters runs as deep as the channels he navigates.

With over six years as a licensed charter captain and a lifetime of hands-on boating experience, Capt. Mike brings unmatched expertise to every trip. Whether you are targeting inshore species or heading offshore in search of big game, he knows where the fish are— and how to get you on them. His vessel, a 26’ Century powered by twin Yamaha 200s, is fully equipped with Garmin electronics, outriggers, and even a restroom, blending performance with comfort for anglers of all skill levels.

Based out of Adventure Yacht Harbor, Fire Line Charters is perfectly positioned for a full day on the water. And when the rods are stowed and the day’s catch is iced down, guests can walk straight to Boondocks restaurant to take advantage of their cook your catch service. With Capt. Mike at the helm, every charter is more than a fishing trip—it’s a first-class Florida experience.
