I have a 25ft Panga. Her name is Teresa D. She is named after my mother. This boat has been in my family for 20 years. Three years ago, I stripped everything off of it and redone the whole boat.

Ratings & Reviews Summary




December 10, 2025
I had an amazing time fishing with my son. The trip was relaxing and far exceeded my expectations. The captain knew the area well and even taught my 8-year-old how to handle an open-faced reel in just a few casts. It was a great overall experience, and we capped it off with a delicious meal of the fish we caught.
December 10, 2025
Captain Eric was fantastic! He walked us through the trip and explained the types of fish we’d be targeting. My family of five and I had an incredible time and caught plenty of fish throughout the day. I highly recommend booking a fishing trip with Tidewater Fishing Service—you won’t be disappointed.

We had such a great experience! We caught a variety of fish, and the captain was wonderful with the kids—patient, kind, and fun. We’ll definitely be booking another trip!

My son and I booked a 3-hour bay trip and had a fantastic time. We started with live croaker, and the captain quickly put us on the fish. When it warmed up, we switched to artificials and the bite never slowed down. Five stars—can’t wait to go again!

We had a blast catching Sheepshead with Captain Erik! He knew exactly where to take us and had us on the fish right away. The action was nonstop, and we were reeling them in the whole time. Such a fun trip!

Erik was an excellent guide and worked hard to keep us on the fish. We had a great time on the night trip and highly recommend booking with him!
