Took a last minute morning trip with Captain Ty during our stay in Jacksonville. We had a great experience. We caught some fish. Learned a little more about Florida fishing. He is very knowledgeable about the area. Will be booking again the next time we visit.

Capt. Ty runs trips out of Jacksonville, FL aboard a 16ft Flats boat. These waters are known for Sheepshead, Tarpon, Redfish and more, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling, flyfishing or even spearfishing. With a decade of experience in the industry, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
