If you’re looking for a memorable fishing experience on Chincoteague, look no further than Capt. Tim! We spent four exciting hours aboard his skiff, jetting between about 15 different fishing holes he expertly scouted. As a true local guide, Capt. Tim’s knowledge of the area is unmatched—he made sure we’d hook something, and he delivered!

While we were rigged for flounder (and that’s mostly what we caught), the trip was packed with learning and fun. I managed to land a hefty 20” summer flounder—so impressive that it was already in the ice chest before we could snap a photo! Capt. Tim was generous with his advice, sharing tips and techniques to help us improve our skills throughout the day.

What really stood out was Capt. Tim’s enthusiasm and hospitality. He even invited us back for a different adventure, promising to target other species next time. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner, this is the kind of fishing charter that makes you want to return. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience the best of Chincoteague fishing!

Captain Tim is a great guide. He is very knowledgeable about the water and put us on flounder, striper, and speckled trout over the course of the trip. He was patient in giving instruction regarding the most effective techniques and lures for each target species. At the end of the day, I went home with 2 nice flounders and many great memories. I look forward to scheduling another trip with him next Fall.

We had an amazing experience shark fishing with Captain Tim! From the very beginning, he listened to what we wanted out of the trip and made sure to tailor everything to fit our needs and expectations. He took us to several great spots, giving us the chance to really enjoy the thrill of the day. His knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm made the whole experience both exciting and comfortable. Captain Tim went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable, and we can’t recommend him highly enough

We had planned to do the shark trip, but Tim was honest with us that the waters were not as warm as they needed to be for good shark fishing. He was willing to take us, but offered alternatives as well. We opted to rely on his experience and we were not disappointed. It was a beautiful trip, with multiple fish caught. Tim’s knowledge of the island, the waters surrounding it and stories he shared made the day so memorable. Highly recommend.

This is the 4th (maybe more) time that we’ve gone out with Captain Tim. We will keep coming back, because he ALWAYS works his tail off to find the fish…even when the bite is tough. I’ve sailed with captains who are happy to just take you for a boat ride when the fish aren’t cooperating, but Tim isn’t one of them. The bite wasn’t on today, but we moved and moved until he found them. Thanks, Captain Tim, for another great morning!
