Tyler is a great guide who showed up early with live bait he caught earlier in the morning. He checked to confirm what we were hoping to catch, snook and tarpon. He knew where to go in rookery bay, aptly rebaited the fishing hooks. We caught a snook, several young snapper and jacks, and then several athletic tarpon that put up a good fight. He told us fishing stories and we saw the beautiful Marco island and rookery bay islands where dolphins and sea turtles were swimming. He provided many opportunities for us to catch big fish! It was a great time for the family.

Tyler is probably the best guide my wife and I have ever had. He was very attentive. He knew where the fish were and he was right there with bait or to get us un snagged or to help us pull in the big one you can’t go wrong with Tyler I promise.

Tyler was amazing with our 6 year old. Despite the unusually cold temperatures, Tyler was able to put us on the fish. We caught more game fish on this tour than the three years prior with other guides in more favorable conditions. Tyler did a fantastic job. Thank you for the wonderful memories with our family, Tyler!
