Captain Tommy is a lifelong fisherman with 20+ years fishing the Tampa Bay area. After retiring from the corporate world he has turned his full attention to the thing he loves...fishing. There is nothing he likes more than the the thrill of watching others catch fish, whether it's an experienced angler catching "the" fish or a first timer feeling the pull of fish on the other end of the line.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
