Excellent Full Day Trip!!!
Full Day Trip on August 1, 20266 adults

Captain Tim knows his stuff!!! Six of us went out for a full 9hour trip and all of us went home with enough fish to feed our families for a week! When we were done slamming the Kingfish we headed out to a different spot and were all over some monster snapper. The captain was great and accommodated whatever we were looking to do. We will 100% be booking again soon!

Just what I needed
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 22, 20262 adults

Capt. Tim was awesome today. I know fishing is about luck. But sometimes, luck, opportunity, experience, and knowledge meet. That is where Capt. Tim took us today. My wife and I had a wonderful time today. We landed 7 fish and had 5 get away. Those 5 were just as exciting as the landed 7. Thank You Captain Tim and Happy Birthday!

Great experience!
3/4 Day Trip (AM) on June 19, 20264 adults

We had a great experience fishing with Robbie. He put us on the fish from the very first cast, and it was on, one after another. I highly recommend using him if you want excitement, a comfortable ride, and beautifully fileted fish. Thanks for an awesome trip!

Capt. Tim Fletcher began his fishing career at age 6, when he caught his first saltwater fish, and has been addicted to sport fishing ever since. He is now a USCG-licensed captain who is entering his 20th season in the Port Canaveral and Cocoa Beach areas. Prior to starting his own charter service, he spent time as a commercial lobster diver and professional mate on the 'Sea Aye' with Captain Ron Rincones. He now works with Captain Robbie Goodson and specializes in live baiting and trolling for King, Cobia, Wahoo, Dorado, and Tuna, as well as deep-water bottom fishing for trophy Grouper, Snapper, and Amberjack. Capt. Tim has been successful in a range of tournaments and has been featured in many Florida outdoor publications. When he isn't out on the water, the captain dedicates his time to charity events and various fishing associations in the area. He is passionate about marine conservation and is involved in tagging programs organized by the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council and Mote Marine Laboratory.
