Tyler Floding

Captain Tyler began working with AU as an assistant fish processor at AU in 2017. He was soon
enlisted for early-season deckhand work with Captain Bo. Then AU had an unexpected opening
for a deckhand and Tyler, already a proven asset on the water, began decking for Captain Tom.
He continued in that role for four seasons, also filling in with Captain Sarah and doing a
knockout job. He quickly made friends with customers and showed a natural sense for AU’s
customer service. He paid attention to the details, learning about running a boat, catching fish,
and all phases of our operation.

Tyler took a year off from AU in 2021 to pursue a full-time job in North Dakota, but the call of the
North Pacific proved too strong. AU made him an offer that he couldn’t refuse and he became a
captain in 2022. “I look forward to seeing my current clients and meeting new ones. I like
forming new friendships with my anglers while working in one of the most beautiful places on
earth and, of course, catching big fish!!.”

Tyler Attended North Dakota State University (NDSU – Go Bison) for 5 years to obtain his
bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. Graduated in the spring of 2020.

The silver fishing was challenging but the Angling Unlimited operation was excellent. I especially appreciate Captain Tyler’s and Gunner’s efforts to help finish the trip strong with a great Halibut catch our last day.
I always appreciate the friendly, “family” like atmosphere at Angling Unlimited!
