Deep Dropping is definitely the method of choice if you are looking to put meat in the box! Deep dropping is a newer style of fishing and the fishing grounds are still pristine. So head way offshore with Captain Tyler to drop cut baits down hundreds of feet to hook into some delicious bottom fish like Tilefish, Warsaw Grouper, Wreck Fish, and others!

About Your Trip

Deep Dropping is definitely the method of choice if you are looking to put meat in the box! Deep dropping is a newer style of fishing and the fishing grounds are still pristine.

So head way offshore with Captain Tyler to drop cut baits down hundreds of feet to hook into some delicious bottom fish like Tilefish, Warsaw Grouper, Wreck Fish, and others! Be prepared for a long boat ride out to the fishing grounds as these deep drop shelves are usually miles offshore. While way offshore, Mahi Mahi and tuna are commonly caught as well as a box full of bottom fish.

Captain Tyler provides all the fishing gear you could possibly need for a successful day's deep dropping including cut bait, tackle, and fishing licenses. All he recommends that you bring are your favorite snacks and drinks, and a desire to haul some tasty fish up from the deep blue!

Fishing is Captain Tyler's true passion, and there's nothing he loves more than to be out on the water fishing. He likes taking people out and sharing the experience with them. Seeing the excitement on people's faces when they land a good fish is something he enjoys the most. It reminds him of him when he was starting for the first time. "My dad taught me to fish when I was 3 years old. I have been obsessed ever since."

We had an amazing trip with Eric. He put us on the fish right from the start! Best fishing experience we have had. We will definitely be requesting him again when we return. He was super knowledgeable and had answer to every question. His passion for fishing really shows through making the experience even better!

At one point in the conversation with Tyler, he said it was not worth his time to take us out (2 of us), although we booked a private boat with Captain Experiences. He only agreed after finding another client to ride along and share the expense. This was for an 11am trip. This change affected the entire plans we had for the remainder of the day, but there was no way to get our money back otherwise. Still no word from Captain Experiences at this point. Actual trip was a bust, only catching 2 Barracuda and hooking a shark. In Cancun we caught about 15-20 fish (Barracuda, Mahi, etc.) in the same time. I know there are no guarantees, but this haul was very, very weak. I will say that the crew (Tyler was not on this trip) was fabulous. Too bad they work for him. In the end, I will not utilize Captain Experiences again (we have previously) and will either book with another charter company or directly with an independent captain.

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hey Brian, we’re really sorry to hear about this frustrating experience. It’s clear that the lack of communication and last-minute changes from Tyler disrupted your day, and that’s unacceptable. We understand how disappointing it must have been to feel like your trip wasn’t valued, especially after booking a private charter. While we know fishing can vary, it’s even more frustrating when the overall experience falls short. We’ll be addressing this with Tyler and the team...

Captain Tyler took our family out for an afternoon excursion. The sport fishing was a bit soft, but Tyler put us on a couple of small game fish while we were hunting for monsters. The group agreed to move to the more shallow reefs, where we put upward of 30 fish in the boat over 90 minutes, including several keepers with meat on the bones.

Tyler cleaned the fish for us and recommended a restaurant nearby that would cook our catch, which meant an easy and clean dinner for Mom! We had a great time with Tyler.

We were fishing in late December and the fish just were not biting. But he TRIED. Ended up catching maybe ten keepers. He offered a return trip at half price. And was super considerate when two passengers were sick. Returned to the pier to drop them off and then took the others back out to try again.
