Captain
Tim Meador

Member since January 2017 Freeport, United States
Background
Captain Tim Meador was born and raised in Sweeny, Texas and presently resides there with his wife and kids. He grew up hunting and fishing along the South Texas coast, bays, bayous and sanctuaries. He has always been passionate about the pristine beauties of the Galveston/Freeport Bay complex. To this day he is still amazed by the place he gets to call his office. Captain Tim has been a professional guide for over 20 years and has had the privilege of guiding all over the country. Unable to deny his love of fishing for trophy Trout, Redfish, and Flounder; he finds himself drawn back home to guide in what he considers to be one of the best trout sanctuaries on the Texas Coast.
Techniques
I prefer artificial lures for bait as an avid fisherman. I am glad to help my guests with the use of live baits like shrimp or croaker if that's what they prefer.
