Tom Young5.0VerifiedPre Helene Fishing Trip
4 hour inshore on September 23, 2024 • 4 adultsCaptain Tim and his first mate Cutter were great. Very experienced , professional and knew where the fish would be biting. We did a half day trip just a few days before hurricane Helene hit , so it did have an effect on the fish biting. However, Captain Tim kept us on the move so we could experience catching a variety of different fish . His boat is comfortable and easy to maneuver around in and is equipped with all the up to date technology. We had a great time and still caught enough fish for two meals for a family of four. We would definitely go back out with Tim again and would highly recommend. Thanks again gentlemen.
Brad Detring5.0VerifiedGood times
4 hour inshore on July 21, 2025 • 5 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Tim and his first mate(son) were very personable and easy to talk to. For our first time saltwater fishing, they knew where to take us to keep the fish biting! Highlight of the trip were the two sharks the kids caught, and the third I almost got in the boat…it was a monster, I’m sure of it!! Well done fellas, we will be talking about this for years to come!

Robb Hilderbrand5.0VerifiedDay late but not a dollar short.
4 hour inshore on June 7, 2025 • 5 adultsHad to postpone our trip from Saturday to Sunday due to weather. Had a great time. We caught quite a few that were too small but still had a few keepers of speckled trout. Capt. Tim and first mate Cutter were great. Will use them again!
Rich DavisRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat day at sea!
4 hour inshore on April 10, 2025 • 6 adultsWe had a great time with Captain Tim and first mate Cutter! The fishing was slow at first, but they kept working until we got on good fish. Everyone on our excursion caught fish! Great company, enjoyed the crew very much! Thanks Captain Tim and Cutter!
Donna AnthonyRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip
8 hour inshore on April 24, 2025 • 3 adultsCaptain Tim was very knowledgeable and helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the fish were a little bit scarce that day. I would still recommend Sidehustle Exursions to anyone.

8 hour inshore on June 3, 2023Fish from the boat, take a cruise on the water, fish at the beach, take a swim break, cast a net, AND enjoy the sunshine. Tim had everything we needed to keep the fun rolling for my family. We did several activities on our vacation and the kids agreed that boating with Captain Tim was their FAVORITE by far! Tim was knowledgeable of the area and moved around to find the fish for loads of catches. I felt safe and comfortable on the boat and can’t wait to book again!
Ryan Smith5.0VerifiedWe had a blast!
4 hour inshore on July 30, 2024 • 4 adultsTim and his son were the best! They worked hard on putting us on some fish and was very knowledgeable. We had a blast and would recommend them to anyone. I’ll definitely be booking with them in the future when vacationing in the area. Thanks Tim and Kutter!
Kyle MitchellRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip, great people!
4 hour inshore on July 7, 2024 • 4 adultsWe’ll definitely book with Tim again. He’s a family guy and makes sure you have a good time! We caught a boss 24” speckled trout, several large sharks, and a bunch of other fish in the July heat. Look forward to next time!
Catherine Hampton5.0VerifiedMild mannered Dad catches shark!

Had a great day on the water with Captain Tim and his deckhands. Tim was selective with our trip date to ensure a positive experience, which was thoughtful. Everyone was positive and patient with us. They made my 14 yer old son, who is on the autism spectrum, feel like part of the team. We ended up catching our limit of Sheepshead plus some. Overall we brought home 37 good fish for eating and caught 5 different types of fish! Great experience! The perfect weather and calm seas were icing on the cake.
My son (14) and I went on a four hour trip with Tim and had a great time. Tim’s first mate (his son) was a great assistant throughout the trip. Tim knew the right spots to hit and we caught a good number of redfish, trout and even an unexpected shark. Would definitely recomment booking with Tim.
it was a pleasure fishing with you guys!
it was a pleasure spending the morni g with tou guys
it was a pleasure fishing with you all, hope everyone enjoyed their stay on the forgotten coast!
Really fun fishing trip and great for kids. Brought home a lot of fish and fried them up for dinner. Highly recommend Captain Tim and son/first mate Kutter!
