I have been fishing and traveling all around florida since I was young and have been able to experience many of the unique things florida has to offer. Which makes me very knowledgeable about floridas wildlife, wilderness, and animals. There are many things the state has to offer and I am more then happy to share my love for the state and wildlife with you! I run fun and exciting fishing trips out of Fort Meyers Beach, Naples, Sanibel and estero Florida. Come aboard and discover the area's inshore, nearshore, and backcountry waters, as well as rivers and flats, all beautiful and full of fish.

    Fantastic Time!

    2 Hour Trip (AM) • 5 adults

    We had a great time with Captain Timothy! We were catching fish as soon as we casted in the water. We caught nearly a dozen keepers and plenty of other fish to throw back. Next time we’re in town, we plan to go again! Really appreciate Captain Timothy’s kindness, knowledge and skill with fishing.

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout
    Response from Captain

    Great with Kids!

    2 Hour Trip – Noon • 4 adults • 2 children

    This was our first time out fishing in FL with kids and Cap’n Timothy did such a great job invoking and teaching our kids. We were looking for a laid back first time experience and he was everything we were looking for with first timers. We had an excellent experience!
