How did you get started guiding?
Long time of offshore fishing and started guiding trips to semi retire from my current industry.
What makes you different from other guides?
All good guides have a lot in common on the water, I think my life experiences owning so many successful businesses in so many industries and coming back to offshore fishing on a weekly basis after 20 years of self employment makes me different than most charter captains.

I got the impression that the mate was newer deckhand. The mate did well but obviously had a few things to learn. Sorry I forgot his name. As for our captain, instead of the captain jumping in and helping the mate, he was too busy fishing himself. They both basically got lost in what they were doing instead of putting the clients first. Overall we had a good experience and reeled up plenty of fish.

Paid for a fishing trip for 6. Only 4 people ended up being able to fish. Captain was not very knowledgeable about which species of fish were legal to keep. As with all saltwater fishing, more concerned with ways to mark time and burn hours than actually catch fish. Especially the fish we were after.

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hi Ashley, I'm so sorry that this trip was not what you had hoped for. Captain Tommy's vessel only allows up to four anglers to fish at any given time -- this is to reduce line tangles and ultimately give you a more productive day of bottom fishing. Captain Tommy has been fishing in the area for many years and his number one priority is safety on the water. Please give us a call so...
