About Your Trip

While this might be a slightly informal duck hunt, Captain Tim knows how to put you on em! Ducks on the panhandle are less consistent than in other regions of the country and thus require creative techniques to kill them. While setting up decoy spreads never hurt if you'd like to bring your own, Captain Tim prefers to do his scouting ahead of time, head up the river, and find a brushed-in spot on the bank to give him prime time passing shots as ducks fly low heading from roost to feed, and cove to cove as boaters flush them up throughout the morning.

As a full-time fishing guide, he always has a pulse on duck movements since he's on the water all day every day. To that end he also finds ducks on the shoreline as well. When the ducks are there, he sets up in the water by the wildlife refuge and waits for the ducks to make the fateful mistake of flying out over the water as they cruise by.

Whether it's setting up on the river or on the shoreline, Florida's panhandle holds some typical duck species like Blue and Green Winged Teal, Bluebills, Redheads, Wooducks, and Buffleheads. But also is home to a rare duck for some trophy hunters in the Black Bellied Whistling duck!

Please bring your own gear: Waders, Camouflage, Shotguns, Steel Shot, and Decoys if you'd like (Decoys not required by any means). Captain Tim will take care of the rest getting you in position and setting you up for success!

This was my daughter's and my first offshore fishing trip, and we couldn't have asked for a better one. Captain Tim was incredible, got us on some great fish, and made the morning completely enjoyable. We went home with a lot of meat he cleaned up for us and created some wonderful memories. If you're looking for an amazing experience and a cooler full of fish to take home, Captain Tim is your guy!

Tim created the perfect experience on our trip. It was a graduation present for my son and it was everything he and I wanted it to be. Tim was fun, incredibly competent at his craft, and interacted with us in a relaxed manner that made for a wonderful day. I have been utilizing fishing guides regularly for years and Tim was by far the best guide I’ve ever had. Bravo!
