Capt Tommy Rickman

While growing up, the highlight of my summer was helping on my uncle's charter boat.  Even as a child I loved to see people catch fish!  I especially enjoyed the excitment when they caught a glimpse  of a fish they had never seen before or they caught the fish they had always dreamed of catching.   Throughout the years, that excitment has never faded, if anything, it has increased my enjoyment in providing the experience of fishing to others. 

It has always been my dream to take people and show them what I love about being on the water.  Maybe it's the open spaces and fresh air or just trying to trick a fish into biting your hook.  Even on your worst day if you just take off and go fishing I think you would forget about any headaches you have- if just for a few hours.  It's therapy.

When the weather heats up he's one of the area's most avid Tarpon fishermen.  If you have never seen or hooked a huge cape fear tarpon you need to give it a try.  It's one of the most relaxing afternoon/morning trips you can book.
