About Your Guide

Tim Rudder

Independent Guide
Captain Tim has spent his life on the water, and what started as fishing trips with family and friends turned into a full-time passion for guiding others. He became a charter captain to share the joy of fishing—especially that moment when someone hooks their first fish, whether it’s a kid or an adult.

Based in Morehead City, Captain Tim knows these waters like the back of his hand. From chasing Trout, Drum, and Flounder to simply enjoying a peaceful day on the water, he’s all about creating relaxed, memorable trips for anglers of all ages.

You’ll fish aboard a 20’ Kencraft skiff powered by a 115HP Yamaha, fully equipped with GPS, fishfinder, and a livewell for fresh bait. With space for up to 4 anglers and a laid-back local at the helm, this is coastal Carolina fishing made easy and fun.
