Captain Tim “SGT”- 2018 Twin Vee 260 GF

Captain Peterson will run into the Gulf of Mexico between 15 and 55 miles out to various reefs, recks, and towers where the  fishing is wonderful. He will put you on Grouper, Snapper, Cobia, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Wahoo, Barracuda, Spanish Mackeral, King Mackeral and much more. We can go after Marlin and Sailfish on longer trips. We will help you fight and catch monsters while and enjoy an experience of a lifetime. There is only a handful of captains within the hours drive with this expensive license to bring fishing charters in this federally controlled pristine ecosystem. Make sure you are early to book with Captain Tim for a deep-sea trip you won’t soon forget.
