Perfect Day on the Water with Captain Nick!
3 Hour Fishing and Sightseeing on November 25, 20256 adults

We had an absolutely fantastic time on our fishing charter with Captain Nick! We caught multiple species of fish, and he told us a lot about the area and different species of fish. It was the perfect blend of fishing and sightseeing, and we loved every minute of it. The whole family had a blast, and we’re already talking about booking another trip. Highly recommend!

Angler's Choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

The Native Guided Fishing team are Southwest Florida natives, meaning they practically grew up on the waters around the 10,000 Islands. They were all hooked on fishing in their youth while cruising the backwaters, discovering the riches in the creeks and rivers. The team has spent as much time as possible on the water, increasing their knowledge bit by bit. The guides like nothing more than sharing their fishing experience with others. They promote conservation in the area, and always respect local regulations, in the hope that fishing may long continue in this corner of Florida. The Native Guided Fishing team have three boats and can accommodate up to parties of 18 (6 per boat)
