I booked Capt Tim for a half day inshore trip for my wife and myself. We have several experiences around the states and abroad with fishing guides and Capt Tim seemed to fit the bill through reading all of his reviews. He was highly rated and it didn’t take long on our trip to realize why. Not only is he very experienced with inshore fishing along the east coast estuaries, but he is a very personable guy that makes the day enjoyable and the time ends up passing quicker than you want it to. Despite us having some existing inshore experience, he took the the time to be a coach as well and teach tactics and bait profiles that we don’t typically use. The action started immediately with trout in the boat at a creek mouth. He likes to fish a spot and move on if there are no bites, but we pretty much were landing fish at every spot we went to. It didn’t take long for us to hook up to a 30” bull red. We fished well past the half day time limit all the way until dark. The excitement lasted all the way to the final cast. With the sun setting, Capt Tim stalked a large bull red for the last 30 minutes of day light as we site casted at him, finally bringing in our last 30” bull red for the day. We ended the day with smiles, high fives, and a total of 7 or 8 reds, 5 or 6 trout, a flounder, 3 black drum (with the cast net), multiple crabs, and shrimp. I have had many guides over the years and Capt Tim has provided one of my best experiences to-date. Fishing with Capt Tim felt like we were fishing with a friend.

Tight lines was a good experience. Guide is very knowledgeable about the area and comes well prepared to put you on fish

Captain Tim was very knowledgeable about where we could fit the fish. Clean boat and Tim was very helpful and personable. I would definitely use Tim again

We had an awesome afternoon with Captain Tim Carver. Knowledgeable, professional and fun, he spent the afternoon educating two rookie fishermen. First he changed up the time so we would take advantage of the tide. He explained the tides, the types of fish, where they’d be, why, the gear, the technique and the boat. By the time we were done we had caught a bunch of fish and I felt like I might be capable of heading out by myself next time. That said, I’ll be booking another trip with Captain Tim for my son and I in September. Great day, great guy.

Had a great day on the water with Capt. Tim. He was knowledgeable and willing to work with me to break my bad fly fishing habits. He put me on some very nice reds and, I blew it with bad casts. Then the bite slowed down but he still managed to put us in the spot to put a few reds in the boat!
