About Your Guide

Andrew T.

Independent Guide

I grew up in New Jersey and have been fishing and on boats since before I can remember. I moved to Florida in 2017 and finally made my dream happen in 2021 when I got my captain's license. Now, I can take people fishing and hopefully share the enjoyment that I have fishing and just being on the water. I don't target any certain species of fish... I just try to put people on fish so they can have fun. I fish light spinning gear so even a 6 inch snapper feels huge. To me, it's more about the experience and having a great time than just targeting a certain fish. We do catch big fish too as you can see in the pictures. Just an added bonus! If you are looking to have an enjoyable time catching some fish, playing some good tunes on the radio, and possibly catching a fresh meal (if that's your thing) or catch and release, then please book me!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

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. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
