I have been fishing in the Gulf of Mexico my entire life, starting out at 18 as a commercial fisherman. I have fished my way up the ranks on the West Coast of Florida to be considered 'one of the best on the West'. I am the creator of the "Original Extreme Offshore Trip, taking anglers to the historic Middle Grounds for a trip of a lifetime. If you are looking to fill the box and make catches of a lifetime I am your guide. I also love to turn trips into family trips and take first time anglers or families offshore for full or half day charters as well. I think everyone should get the chance to live in my World and fish in the Gulf with me and my crew. Tight Lines, Capt. Tommy

My guys had a great time with Captain Tommy! We had a rocky morning but Captain Tommy made sure to make this a great charter trip nonetheless. Weather was great, the fish were biting, and we got some great memories carved in! 10/10 recommend Captain Experiences and 10/10 from our Captain Tommy, everyone was helpful and great!

If you are looking for a full ice box of fish and a great day on the water Captain Tommy is the best of the best. We caught just everything the gulf has to offer, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Red Snapper, Mango Snapper, Lane snapper, Porgy, and Mahi. He has a beautiful boat and great tackle, stop scrolling and go book him, you won’t be disappointed.

She picked us up, brought us to her boat with her Captain Alex. Who was incredible with my father. An older man who he treated with great respect and made sure that this was the fishing trip on a lifetime. He was knowledgeable funny and gracious. We actually got tired from catching so many fish. Did I mention their boat? There are 34" SeaVee gave me boat envy. I can't say enough about these two people who went above and beyond to make sure that we had a fantastic day. At the end of the day, Misty took us back to her car, which by now it was fixed. Because of this wonderful person we didn't miss a thing. Thank you.!

Tommy and Alex were fantastic! Very laid back yet professional the entire trip. They put us on some nice American Reds and a few nice grouper, as well as, a ton of shorties that had to be thrown back.

We could have had a lot more if those dang sharks were not everywhere, but we still filled the box. AND to end the day, we caught a diamondback rattler crossing the inlet. It was some kind of crazy and I am sure we will have a lasting memory for the rest of our lives…

Thanks Tommy & Alex, we had a fantastic time and I look forward to hopefully booking again with you real soon!

We made a full 8 hr trip with Capt. Tommy and his mate Alex. Fishing started out hot but slowed down later in the day, but fishing on a full moon is never ideal. The boat was great, lots of room for the 6 of us to relax and fish comfortably. Tommy and Alex were very entertaining and were great with the 3 first time fishermen we had in our party. ...

If you want to catch fish, better call and get on board. Hardest working captain I’ve ever seen in my 20 years of offshore fishing. Not only did we limit out in multiple species captain Tommy gave us a great experience and let us do what we wanted to. captain Tommy has the go to spots for big snapper,grouper, and sport fish as well.
