Why should you fish with Tightlines and Captain Paul?

When you fish with Captain Paul, you're fishing with a full-time local guide who spends nearly every day on these waters.

How long have you been fishing this area?

I’ve been fishing the Dunedin and Tarpon Springs area since the early 1990s. What started as family trips turned into a lifelong passion, and I’ve been guiding here full-time since 2023.

Where you guiding before you moved to Florida?

Yes. While I lived in Hilton Head SC I owned a tackle shop and was guiding on the side. I was spending more and more time down in FL and that's when my wife and I decided to move down fulltime.

What's your favorite way to fish?

Sight fishing the shallows is definitely my favorite way to target fish. Watching these big fish slowly swim the flats looking for food, having no idea you are there. It's hard not to forget you're fishing sometimes watching nature in motion. Then tricking those fish into eating a lure or fly is an unbelievable rush. It’s one of my favorite experiences to share with clients.
