Meet Captain Tim Wake

Meet Captain Tim Wake by Get Lost Charters

Captain Tim Wake has spent years learning the rhythms, tides, and hidden patterns of Vero Beach’s waterways, giving him a calm confidence that guests immediately notice. He guides anglers through well-known areas like the Moorings Flats, Sebastian and Fort Pierce Inlets, and the channels of the Indian River Lagoon with a steady, reassuring presence. His approach is patient and personable, helping guests feel at ease as they settle into a day on the water.

What sets Captain Tim apart is his ability to adapt to changing conditions while keeping the experience relaxed and enjoyable. He works with a wide range of techniques, from light and heavy tackle to bottom fishing, live baiting, trolling, spinning, and jigging. This flexibility allows him to create a comfortable space for beginners while still offering challenge and engagement for seasoned anglers. His goal is always the same: make sure guests feel supported, informed, and confident as they target species like snook, spotted seatrout, Spanish mackerel, cobia, and many more.

Families appreciate Captain Tim’s thoughtful guidance, clear communication, and genuine passion for sharing the waters he knows so well. He welcomes anglers of all experience levels and encourages younger guests to build skills and enjoy the process. For offshore outings, he recommends children be at least 12 years old, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone on board.

The Boat

The restored 26’ Hydra Sports center console serves as the steady foundation for every outing, offering a smooth, comfortable ride powered by a reliable 300 HP Suzuki engine. Outfitted with advanced Simrad navigation electronics and a 120-lb thrust Rhodan trolling motor, the boat moves efficiently through both inshore channels and offshore runs. With space for up to four guests, two 35-gallon live wells, an icebox for keeping catches fresh, and well-organized gear storage, the vessel is designed to support a relaxed, well-prepared day on the water. All tackle and bait are provided, and complimentary bottled water and ice keep everyone refreshed throughout the trip.
