    Great start to the morning

    Early Bird Special on February 22, 2025 • 2 adults

    Teddy was awesome! Teddy was very personable and professional and a great guide to the area. He tried to make us as comfortable as possible in the cold weather and put us on some fish. We were able to land a few species of fish that were new to us which is always fantastic. Thanks for a great morning fish Teddy. Highly recommended!

    My party and I had a great time with Capt. Teddy. He was very knowledgeable and patient with my kids. He took his time to teach both my nephew and daughter how to cast. We caught some big fish and would definitely recommend him to anyone planning on going out on a fishing charter.

    what a great charter. Captain Teddy was so good and very personable. We caught fish and even saw a bald eagle swoop down and grab a fish. If you ever get a chance, check out his charters😊.

Capt. Teddy has been fishing since he was 2 years old and fell in love with it! To him, fishing isn't just about catching fish but also taking in all of nature, and becoming a guide allowed him to do that almost every day. In addition to that, seeing people have fun on trips with him makes him feel even better about being a guide and there's nothing like creating memories with loved ones or friends!
