4 HR Trip - Inshore 12pm
May fishing trip
Captain Tyler, although young, displayed a good knowledge of the area and what was biting and what was needed to catch them. We used fairly light gear, which I prefer, and I caught one of the biggest flounders I’ve ever caught (returned to the water), the biggest Speckled Trout by far that I’ve ever caught, 21 inches I believe (also returned to the water), a large Black Drum, a few small trout (back in the water) and the biggest Croaker I’ve ever seen. All in 3 1/2 hours. I was tired from catching fish so I called it a day a half hour early. Not a normal thing for me to do.

4 HR Trip – Nearshore 7 AM
Great experience and will be back again next year!
Tyler is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We tried multiple different methods and areas inshore, and ended up catching red drum and speckled trout. It was our first charter experience and we really enjoyed it! Tyler can answer any question you throw at him and he takes the time to show you everything you need to know to have a successful trip. Next year we are going to book a 2 hour trip for the kids and a 4 hour for the grown ups. Thanks Tyler!

Family trip
Five of us went fishing with Captain Tyler. Arranging the trip was easy to do and when we had to reschedule that went smoothly. The boat was well equipped and Tyler put us on the fish. We caught 3 five pound+ sheepshead along with trout and flounder. One flounder pushed 22” but had to be released. We had a good time and certainly will go again.

Fabulous family fun
We took our 10 year old daughter out for the 2 hour trip. Captain Tyler was very knowledgeable and took his time to help her with baiting and casting tips. He took her to the perfect spot to keep reeling em in! Caught tons of croakers and pin fish. We adults had a great time as well and enjoyed seeing her have so much fun. Can’t wait to come back for another fishing trip!

4 HR Trip – Nearshore 7 AM
This made my son’s year!!!
We took our turning 9-year old for his first big fishing trip and he had the time of his life! Captain Tyler knew his stuff and treated our son like a big deal. He was super friendly and knowledgeable and answered all of our (and our son’s) many questions. We caught a lot of fish, even a couple of sharks which our son thought was the coolest thing ever. We will definitely be back, going to try and schedule with Captain Tyler for the Tuna run in December. But regardless, we will book with him every year. It was the greatest experience!

Tyler is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We tried multiple different methods and areas inshore, and ended up catching red drum and speckled trout. It was our first charter experience and we really enjoyed it! Tyler can answer any question you throw at him and he takes the time to show you everything you need to know to have a successful trip. Next year we are going to book a 2 hour trip for the kids and a 4 hour for the grown ups. Thanks Tyler!
