There's a fish with your name on it in Clearwater and FlatsMonster – 25' will help you catch it! With Captain Tyson at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Redfish, Snook, and whatever else is biting.

For these species, you're likely to spin using light tackle. Capt. Tyson also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

You'll find yourself aboard a 25' Center console with capacity for 5 passengers. It has all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with FlatsMonster – 25' and get hooked!

Captain Tyson was Great!
Summer special on September 6, 2026 • 4 adults

Booked the trip for my boys and Capt. Tyson did not disappoint. Clearly knows all the spots and made sure the kids were catching fish. Not the first time we’ve been fishing with him and won’t be the last.

Fishing for a living has been a dream come true for me. My passion for the sport and owning my own business drives me to make every effort to offer a quality day to all of my clients. I specialize in light tackle live bait fishing, as well as artificiallures and fly fishing. I educate my anglers on the small details that it takes to fool quality fish.

    This was our first time fishing for redfish and Tyson put us on fish. He was very knowledgeable and showed us a great time. I recommend booking a day on the water with Tyson and hope to do so again in the future.

    Captain Tyson is an expert angler with many years of experience. He knows the area extremely well and studies the water and the fish to give you the best opportunity for a catch of a lifetime. He’s even well-versed in fly fishing which was an added bonus, as I caught multiple big fish on the fly with his guidance. To top it off, he’s just a really cool guy to hang out with while you’re hunting for hogs.
