My kids are hooked! Brantleys the best!

Half Day Trip – Inshore4 adults2 children

Brantley communicated immediatly after the booking process and expalined the options for the day. We said we wanted a fight and boy we got one, he was so good with my 10 and 12 year old sons(they have fished for a while) and gave them the one of the most awesome expierences. We happened to get lucky and everything happend very fast, but he explained why we were doing what we were doing and to be honest, the first 30 minutes made the whole trip. This guy has a ton of knowledge and takes it very seiously, he also respects his equipment and works hard the whole time. He will be the one I call next time, no doubt. Thanks for the great memories.

    Half Day out of Lovers Key Ramp

    Half Day Trip – Inshore

    Wonderful day with Hrandsons inshore Estero Bay and out beyond Ft Myers Beach. Knowledgeable and very competent Captain who knows the water well. I strongly recommend Tipsy Tarpon for a great day on the water

    Fish on! with Captain Brantley

    Half Day Trip – Inshore • 2 adults

    Great day of near shore and in shore fishing with Brantley for my son and I. We caught sheepshead, snapper, grouper and the elusive toad fish (this you don’t want). the sheepshead were keepers which he filleted and we had prepared at a local restaurant. great eating! top of the line boat, equipment and captain. i will fish again with Brantley.

    Top-Notch Captain

    3/4 Day Trip – Inshore • 3 adults • 1 child

    Slow day of fishing, but Captain Brantley never gave up and worked tirelessly to put us on fish. In the end he pulled it off with a couple great bites and ended the trip with some memorable action. Top-notch captain and equipment.
