Great day

4 HR Trip – Inshore 7am - 12:00 PM on August 21, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

We decided to book with Tyler because one day while visiting Southport, my husband and son were fishing off a dock and my husband had something strong on the line - Tyler happened to be passing by on his boat, “off the clock” by the way, and told my husband to hop on to chase it down. He coached my husband through reeling up a huge ray that he of course ended up releasing. Our 6 year old son loves fishing, but we do not have a boat. So we bring him on charters a few times a year, today with Tyler. We all learned a lot about different fishing methods, where the fish like to hide, got a few little guys, got one big red fish that Tyler filet for us, and just a beautiful day inshore. He’s a laid back guy who makes you comfortable on his boat. Great time! Great dude!

6 HR Offshore 4 People Max on May 3, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

Tyler was awesome!!!! He accommodated our hopes for the trip by going out further than he could guarantee fish and man he delivered. We did some offshore stuff to make sure we brought home something, then went out further and we all had the best fishing of our lives. Huge thanks to Tyler for a great day and timeless memories 😊.

4 HR Trip – Nearshore - 12:00 PM on March 6, 2026 • 2 adults

I surprised my boyfriend with a 4 hour nearshore fishing trip with Tyler and we absolutely had a phenomenal time. 

We caught a ton of fish and had a great time hanging out with Tyler. He’s super knowledgeable and extremely quick to help with any needs while fishing. 

We will absolutely be back with more of our family members soon!
