  Glad I did it with Tim

  Half Day Trip on July 7, 2025 • 1 adult

  Tim is an excellent guide. We caught a couple reds and also a flounder. He is all over what needs to be done and jumps in to help you allowing you more time to fish. I drove from my vacation in Hilton head because of his excellent reviews. They are definitely accurate. You won’t regret fishing with Tim.

  Best inshore guide experience

  Half Day Trip on September 19, 2023 • 2 adults

  I booked Capt Tim for a half day inshore trip for my wife and myself. We have several experiences around the states and abroad with fishing guides and Capt Tim seemed to fit the bill through reading all of his reviews. He was highly rated and it didn’t take long on our trip to realize why. Not only is he very experienced with inshore fishing along the east coast estuaries, but he is a very personable guy that makes the day enjoyable and the time ends up passing quicker than you want it to. Despite us having some existing inshore experience, he took the the time to be a coach as well and teach tactics and bait profiles that we don’t typically use. The action started immediately with trout in the boat at a creek mouth. He likes to fish a spot and move on if there are no bites, but we pretty much were landing fish at every spot we went to. It didn’t take long for us to hook up to a 30” bull red. We fished well past the half day time limit all the way until dark. The excitement lasted all the way to the final cast. With the sun setting, Capt Tim stalked a large bull red for the last 30 minutes of day light as we site casted at him, finally bringing in our last 30” bull red for the day. We ended the day with smiles, high fives, and a total of 7 or 8 reds, 5 or 6 trout, a flounder, 3 black drum (with the cast net), multiple crabs, and shrimp. I have had many guides over the years and Capt Tim has provided one of my best experiences to-date. Fishing with Capt Tim felt like we were fishing with a friend.
