Member since December 2017 Windermere, United States

Background: I have been fishing for almost 45 years. Im a USCG approved captain and fish the FLW as a pro. I grew up Bass fishing four days a week, riding my bicycle to go fish. I now own the bait shop Get Hooked Bait & Tackle, I also own get hooked magic baits an artificial soft plastic company of 50,000 plus sold at the shop we have hundreds of people come in weekly. We're able to find the best spots and give out the best deals on guided trips with our bait. I do Charters all over the state but i will have us on a lake that is catching. I started guiding because it's like owning the bait shop, I want people to catch fish and what better way than being on the water getting them hooked up! Fishing is my life and our current boat is tuned up to run smoothly on the water to get where we need to go. Nothing makes me happier than seeing people catch fish. Bass is my thing and we have caught them year-round.
Techniques: Wild shiners from my bait shop are the thing to use around here in the area. The bite is good pretty much all year long. We do artificial trips as well but the live bait is always suggested to be the first choice. We fishing this lake 250 days a year so book today and get hooked.

4 Hour Trip – Sunset Deal (PM)

100% worth it, no fishing trip like it Captain Tim is a very sociable and knowledgeable guide. We laughed and enjoyed every second of it he knew where the fish would be and we had some first timers on the boat and they were on fish the entire time. Definitely will be booking again.

Not bad when you can use 5 dozen fish that is over 60 Largemouth bass fish and every single fish got hit. We even used some twice. This is what we do and we are on the water more than most. It was a pleasure getting you out on the water and for those who have been on charters before you might want to give us a try and see what happens :) You all even had a couple 7 lb bass as well.

Thank you, We have a lot of the other captains come to us on getting bait and know where to fish us. We also have some who buy our cheap bait which means they will get 5 fish while we triple in count. Or even more than that at times. Fishing is fishing but we provide a top bass charter service.. When you fish with us your fishing one of the top notch bass charter captains in Florida. It was a pleasure to get you out on the water and i look forward to doing it again. It is a shame when we get back and other captains say it was just a bad day with there 5 fish and we get 40 plus. When anyone books with us they will be booking with one of the best. Your time will be enjoyable relaxed and you will have plenty of smiles and laughter with us. Thank you i really enjoyed having you on my boat.

My son and I had such an amazing time out bass fishing with Captain Tim! The trip was originally a gift for my son but we had so much fun it became a gift for both of us. Captain Tim was very nice, professional and knowledgeable. He suggested we use wild shiners to get the maximum amount of fish and man was he right! Brought along 3 dzn am managed to catch 35 bass!!! Will definitely be booking our next trip with Captain Tim at Get Hooked Bait & Tackle
