Born And Raised Charters welcomes you for a fun-filled day of tight lines at the 10,000 Islands. Captain Tyler Gresham will meet you in Goodland, Florida and provide everything you need for the day. Climb aboard his beautiful boat perfectly laid out to tear up some fish!
Your boat for the day is a 24' Shearwater center console that can accommodate up to 5 anglers. It runs on a 300 HP Yamaha V6 engine, uses modern GPS and VHF radio technology for efficient movement, and is equipped with a livewell. The boat has got a flybridge, a wireless trolling motor so you can fish more quietly, and an ice-box for storing fish.
You and the captain will be using light and heavy tackle to attract Goliath Grouper, Jack Crevalle, Tarpon, Snook, Permit, Pompano, and other interesting species. It's up to you whether you'll take home the fish you catch or release it back into the water. Kids are also welcome to join your trip, so bring the whole family and spend a wonderful day together in nature.
Captain Tyler will take care of all the fishing rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, drinks, licenses, and will even clean and bag your catch so it's ready for cooking as soon as you get back home. Just bring some snacks and you'll be set to go.
Join in for a memorable fishing trip, Born And Raised Charters is waiting for you!

Amazing day with Capt. Tyler
3/4 Day Trip on November 26, 2025 • 2 adults • 2 children
Highly recommend booking a day with Tyler. He had us on fish all day, hit multiple spots and caught a bunch of different fish. On our 3rd spot, he let me get my bass fishing addiction play out by ripping jigs for mackerel and sea trout, kids were getting into them nearly every cast. We had a couple of kids, 5 & 8, on the boat, Capt was patient and helpful with them, very much appreciated and made the trip memorable for the four of us. Will definitely be coming back to S. FL with Born and Raised!!

great day and super helpful Captain Tyler
Half Day Trip on January 24, 2026 • 4 adults
on short notice we booked with Tyler and his "born and rasied" boat. Was a great weather day. Tyler showed us the techniques and took us to more than 5 spots cause the tide and cool waters were not working to our advantage. Fun fact is we caught 10+ different species in one morning! Would book again and would recommend Tyler.

Perfect day of fishing
3/4 Day Trip on August 20, 2025 • 1 adult • 3 children
Captain Tyler was amazing. We did a 6 hour nearshore trip and it didn’t disappoint. Captain Tyler had us on the fish every time we stoped at a spot. We caught over 50 fish during our trip. We even landed a Goliath grouper. He was very knowledgeable about the fish and very patient with my youngest son. We couldn’t have had a better captain for our trip. I highly recommend Captain Tyler and will certainly book with him again next time we are in town. Thanks again Captain!
