The Truth About Networking

Most "executive events" are forgettable. Conference rooms. Name tags. Forced networking. Everyone selling. Nobody connecting.

The best business conversations don't happen across banquet tables. They happen at sunrise on the dock. Fighting a tuna offshore.

Over whiskey at sunset.

— Michael Rager, Founder

Past Attendees · Venice Marina

Real CEOs. Real fish.

Real partnerships.

The Experience

Four days. Twelve CEOs.

One unforgettable run.

Six hours on a boat with five other founders compresses six months of small talk.

You skip the fluff. You talk hiring, acquisitions, growth. By Sunday,

you're not exchanging business cards — you're planning partnerships.

In Their Words

The room changes everything.

"

I've spent six figures on masterminds. None of them gave me what one weekend in Venice did. I came home with two real partnerships and a sharper head than I've had in years.

Warren

CEO, Oilfield Services Co.

"

Fishing was the cover story. The real reason I went was the room — and the room delivered. Eleven other founders, no pitches, no agenda. Just real conversations.

Bryan

CEO, Nexus

"

First weekend I'd taken off in 14 months. Came back with a deal in motion and a circle of CEOs I now actually call. Worth every dollar.

Common Questions

Answers before you ask.

Who else will be on the trip?

Founders and CEOs of businesses doing $2M–$20M in revenue, primarily across oil & gas, law, real estate, construction, and finance. Curated by Michael personally — every seat goes through a brief qualification call to keep the room sharp.

What if I've never fished offshore before?

Doesn't matter. We're partnered with the Mexican Gulf Fishing Company — one of the best offshore operations in the country. Their captains and mates handle everything from baiting to landing the fish. You just show up and reel.

What's included in the $2,600?

All charter boats (offshore + inshore), 3 nights lodging at The Fish House, all meals, drinks at hosted dinners, the full mastermind program, and a 1-on-1 coaching call within a week of returning home. Travel to Venice and personal alcohol are not included.

Is this a coaching pitch in disguise?

No. The trip is a standalone experience. There's no pitch on day 4. Some attendees do choose to work with me afterward — but it's never a condition or expectation. The trip is the trip.

What's the cancellation policy?

Your $900 deposit is fully refundable if your spot can be re-filled. Final payment is due 2 weeks before the trip. After that point, all sales are final.

How do I get to Venice from Houston?

It's a 7-hour drive. We carpool together from Houston Friday morning, stop for Cajun food on the way, and split travel costs. Coming from outside Houston? Fly into New Orleans (MSY), then it's about 2 hours to Venice.

What should I bring?

Casual clothes (think fishing shirts, shorts, comfortable shoes), sunscreen, a hat, and any personal alcohol you'd like. No fishing gear needed — the guides have everything.
