Member since March 2019 Destin, United States
Background
Captain Tyler is a local in the panhandle and has been fishing these waters for 25 years. His family has always been into fishing – he has grown up fishing inshore, chasing Reds, Trouts, and Flounder, and always fishing the Cobia migration during the springtime in the Gulf and Flounder gigging and dock light fishing in the summer with great success. He always had the dream of one day running a charter boat, but decided that he would begin as a deckhand and a mate to get some experience in the charter business. During this time, he was able to work on several boats in different states across the US. For the last 10 years he has learned a lot from the best fishermen in the business. After thousands of charters as a mate, Capt. Tyler decided to take the wheel himself, and is looking forward to welcoming you aboard!
Techniques
My favorite offshore fishing has to be bottom fishing live baits for larger species such as snapper, grouper and amberjacks!
