Book your next trip with Sidehustle Excursions and discover what makes the fishing in Carrabelle unique. With Captain Tim at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Cobia, Flounder, Gag Grouper, Grunt, King Mackerel, Pompano, Redfish, Black Seabass, Mangrove Snapper, Tripletail, Bull Shark, Spotted Seatrout, and more could be biting if conditions are right. For these species, you're likely to drift and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Tim also offers Flounder gigging.

Capt. Tim operates a 21' Carolina Skiff with room for 6 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Trips with Sidehustle Excursions are great for kids, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available. Some essentials to bring are snacks, drinks, sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Sidehustle Excursions and get hooked!

Great Day on the Water
Half Day Trip on March 27, 20263 adults
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.

Great Trip
Half Day Trip on March 12, 20262 adults
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.

Captain 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!
