Jack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Tim consistently delivers exceptional fishing results, expertly navigating local waters to put clients on diverse species including sharks, tarpon, mangrove snapper, sheepshead, grouper, and triple tail. His technical expertise shines through precise spot selection and tackle setup, with customers regularly catching multiple species per trip. Tim provides hands-on instruction for casting techniques and bait placement, making successful catches accessible to novice anglers while challenging experienced fishermen with tarpon sight-casting adventures. Tim's patience with children stands out remarkably, as he continuously re-baits hooks and teaches proper techniques to young anglers aged 6-12. His four-legged first mate Lillie adds extra charm to every trip, serving as both mascot and skilled fish spotter. Customers appreciate Tim's flexibility when conditions change, switching from gulf fishing to bay excursions for safety or adapting tarpon trips to productive shark fishing when needed. Many families return for repeat bookings and enthusiastically recommend MM Charters to other anglers.

Trip - Inshore Fishing Charter in Englewood Florida for Gag and Goliath Grouper on April 9, 2026

8:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Captain Tim was a blast. He was fun to talk to and was great with my 5 year old daughter. He also helped her fish so my wife and I could fish without having to stop and help. Captain Tim was incredibly knowledgeable about local wildlife and pointed it out as he saw it. This is a great charter to have the whole family on. Tim was over all great. We loved his boat and the fact that we could go up into the tower so we were able to see sharks and dolphins was fantastic. We caught a large variety of fish, but our favorite was the shark. We fished both the bay and the gulf. Tim cleaned our fish for us and gave us just a genuinely good time.

Great day out on the water! Captain took us out in the Gulf first, taught us how to fish the bottom, helped improve our fishing techniques (we needed help). He was always ready to put our bait on, take our fish off, and cast for us, when needed. Then he took us into the bay, we caught some more fish (we had quite a variety, but a lot were too small or not in season or not good eating). His dog, Lily, was the best! She was always on lookout, and every "fish on" she encouraged us to reel in by barking! AND, she barked when she saw the dolphins, always before we saw them. It was a GREAT day.

Capt Tim was an excellent steward of our family fishing adventure. He was thoughtful and considerate our entire crew. Our kids (14 and 8) were already planning the next adventure with Capt Tim.

Tim did everything you might expect from a private charter. he brought us to a varity of spots including miles out on a choppy day to put us on fish. Tim kept us baited up and is very knowledgable of fishing in the area and clearly has had a lot of experiences.

Capt. Tim kept us on the fish and we were catching left and right. Had such a cool experience with the dolphins chasing our catch and also getting to see some other wild life. 100% recommend booking with him! You won’t regret it!
