We had a trip with Capt Tim post Tropical Storm so I wasn’t expecting much. Tim worked really hard to get us a limit of trout which we did and was able to experience a Jack Crevalle which was awesome. Tim is not the kind of guide where if it’s slow fishing, he’s going to just sit in one spot hoping you catch some. He’s constantly rotating spots to get you on fish, the man really works hard to get you on em. I felt like I was just fishing with one of my buddies, today. I HIGHLY recommend Captain Tim and will be fishing with him anytime I’m in the area.
thanks buddy and I really enjoyed fishing with y’all and your wife did amazing for a first time on a guide boat. She outdid both of us. 😬
We had a great 6-hour trip. trip. Captain Tim took us to some great spots. We limited out on speckled trout and even caught a few oversized ones which we released. Also caught redfish, skipjacks, black drum, and of course a few proverbial hard heads and gas tops. The weather was iffy but Captain Tim stayed in touch with us every day to monitor if the weather was going to cooperate.
thanks again, Buddy. I really enjoyed fishing with y’all. Hopefully, we can do it again sometime. 
Had an awesome time with Captain Tim Meador. We limited on speckled trout with most running 17-19 inches. Released several over 20. The boys really enjoyed Captain Tim showing them the ropes on catching trout with croakers. A limit of trout on their first trip, hard to beat that.
thanks buddy. I really enjoyed fishing with the boys. They are great kids and you should be very proud of them. Hopefully, we can do it again someday. 
Captain Tim was great frim the start. He called shortly after booking online, again the day before, told us exactly what time and locations to meet. Tim put us on the fish znd limited in no time!
thanks buddy. I really enjoyed fishing with y’all. Hopefully, we can do it again someday.
