Captain Tim was ready to fish at 6. Plenty of bait for the entire trip. Our group caught a lot of fish, spotted and sand trout, redfish, sheep heads, and a few sharks. The tide didn’t come in as it was supposed to, so keeper trout and reds were hard to find. Captain Tim did plenty of networking with his fellow guides to try and get us on more quality fish. From what we could gather, it was a tough day for everyone, based on what other guides were saying. Overall we had a great trip, and will book another trip with Captain Tim because of his no quit attitude and how hard he was trying to get us on big fish in less than ideal conditions. We had plenty of fish to make two meals out of feeding 8. Very happy with his service.

Had a blast today with captain Tim, his knowledge of the bays, areas and how to fish them was thoroughly impressive. He had us on the fish from the crack of down until the trip was over. Would definitely recommend. We can’t wait to get back out on the water with Mr “Mator!” #SticksWithRods Thank you Tim!

Tim was amazing! He took the time to help both of our new fishermen! My 11yr old can’t wait to go back. Thanks Tim!
