About the Event
We have a special guest speaker for our February Social, Captain Tim Fletcher, Get Down Fishing Charters. Tim will be sharing his experience and knowledge during his talk on Bottom Fishing out of Port Canaveral.
Tim is currently entering his 20th season in the Port Canaveral and Cocoa Beach areas of East Central Florida. He began acquiring his local knowledge as a commercial lobster diver and professional mate on the charter boat Sea Aye with Captain Ron Rincones of Sebastian before starting his own private charter service. His specialties include deep water bottom fishing for trophy Grouper, Snapper and Amberjack, as well as, live baiting and trolling for Kings, Cobia, Wahoo, Dolphin and Tuna. Over the years, Tim has consistently guided his clients to the winners' circle in many of the area tournaments. Notable catches and tournament winnings have led to many features in publications such as Florida Today newspaper and Florida Sportsman magazine.
Tim holds an MBA from Florida Institute of Technology, is a PADI Master SCUBA instructor, an active Scientific Diving Safety Officer for the American Academy of Underwater Sciences and a Divers Alert Network instructor teaching courses such as First Aid/CPR, Emergency Oxygen Administration and Onsite Neurological Exam.
When he's not fishing, Tim donates much of his time to charity events such as fishing clinics for kids and handicapped citizens. He has been actively involved in the Florida Sport Fishing Association, Canaveral Charter Captains Association and National Association of Charterboat Operators, participating in events such as reef projects, beach cleanups, the adopt-an-island program and local civic projects. Captain Tim is a proponent of marine conservation and currently participates in tagging programs administered by the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council and Mote Marine Laboratory.
