Meet your Captain
I have spent my time fishing in Pine Island Sound and surrounding estuaries and exploring the hard to get to and pristine beaches of Cayo Costa. Sanibel and Captiva are always on our list of favorites but sometimes it’s nice to leave civilization and escape to the wild. I hope that we can share this unique lifestyle with you and your family, at least for the time that you are here. Give us a call to make it happen or click on the Reservations tab and complete the contact form.

““Fished several times now with Captain TJ. Always, always, always had a great time. I normally fish the Great Lakes, being from Ohio, so catching saltwater fish is new to me. Captain TJ knows all the best spots! Always a good time!””
“I book Capt TJ once every couple of months to fish with my kids or do a guys trip. He always puts us on fish- whether it back water snook, red fish or trout- or black tip sharks. What I like about fishing with TJ is I always walk away learning something. Would definitely recommend booking TJ.”
