I have been fishing Flamingo and the Florida Keys since I was in 8th grade. I first fell in love with fishing when I was in elementary school. As I grew up I was able to learn how to become a better angler over the years. I started out fishing for blue gills at the end of the road and slowly worked my way up the list of gamefish. I am excited to show people my passion for fishing and a once in a lifetime adventure into the Everglades.

I run my fishing charters out of a 18’4″ Maverick HPX-Varis powered by a 115 HP Yamaha SHO. This is my boat of choice for a variety of reasons. This boat has tons of space, making it ideal for anglers to bring what they need while not getting cluttered on the deck. This boat is very sturdy, this makes navigating around the vessel a lot easier with minimum chances for accidents. This boat has a large livewell, making it great for storing live mullet, shrimp, ladyfish, crabs, etc. The 4 stroke...

115 Yamaha provides a great ride when going from spot to spot making it easy to relocate without losing valuable time on the water. Finally, this boat still gets extremely shallow for its size. This is extremely important as it leaves a ton of opportunities for fishing still on the table.

Tyler was awesome! Super nice guy who is incredibly knowledgeable about fishing the Everglades. We hooked multiple tarpon and Tyler cleaned our mangrove snapper which made for some great fish tacos that night. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a unique Everglades experience!
