Captain Daddy's Fishing Charters

Member since April 2018 Port Orange, United States
Background
Tim “Captain Daddy” Russel is a Florida native. He grew up on the waters of the greater Daytona Beach area, fishing and exploring the bite. Captain Daddy spent all his childhood fishing any waterbody he could find while his buddies were busy playing sports. Tim’s parents quickly understood that fishing is not just a random hobby for him – it was Tim’s real passion. He bought his first boat at a young age of 14 and began learning the techniques and fish patterns. With almost 3 decades of experience, Captain Daddy still enjoys fishing the Daytona Beach area and has never looked back.
Techniques
I prefer bottom fishing keeps everyone on the boat with a rod bent all day.
