Captain
Timmy Arruda

Member since February 2022 Sandwich, United States
Background
Captain Tim Arruda has been fishing the waters of Massachusetts his whole life with his father David. The captain became a commercial fisherman in 2016 when he made a huge career/life change to be a technical educator and that gave him the opportunity of a lifetime to follow his passion for fishing during his summers off. Captain Tim is a well-recognized fisherman and he obtained his captain's license so he can share his passion for fishing with others on charters. From Scup to Giant Bluefin Tuna, he has the gear and knowledge to put you on a constant day of reeling in your target species!
Techniques
From bottom fishing to popping topwater lures, the captain has you covered on any style you prefer to fish with a variety of different new gear that is well maintained. Not to mention the comfort and capability of the 27' MayCraft Pilothouse with twin Yamaha 250s ready to get you where you want to go quickly!
