Meet Captain TJ Stewart

Captain TJ has been a full-time fishing guide since 2000, though his fishing experience extends back to childhood exploring Tampa Bay waters. A native Florida resident with lifelong local expertise, he guides anglers of all skill levels through the rich waters of the Gulf Coast.

No matter what you want to catch — tarpon, snook, redfish, trout, shark, or other species — Captain TJ has the knowledge and years of experience to put you on trophy fish with consistency.

Outside of fishing, Captain TJ resides in Bradenton, Florida with his wife, son, and daughter. He actively participates in charitable fishing tournaments benefiting pediatric cancer research, children's burn foundation, and veteran housing organizations.
