Captain Nick was great! My 12 year old son and I went out and caught several different species of fish and had a couple of chances at sharks too! Nick made our day very fun and was extremely helpful. I would 💯% recommend him for your fishing trip. Next time we are down we will check out his shark trip. Thanks Captain Nick!
Captain Nick was amazing with my three boys ages 10,9 and 6 very patient very helpful. One of the best charters I’ve ever been on. In five hours, we caught an assortment of different types of fish. Definitely recommend this charter for anybody new to fishing or fishing with children.
You guys were great thanks for booking with me!
Captain Nick is hard working and will keep you on the hunt. Had a blast, boat was great- roomy, smooth and great speed. Captain Nick knows the area in and out and techniques. Will book him again next time I am back in the area!
Our group of 4 had a great AM excursion. We caught plenty of fish, keeping 4 Red Snapper. Boating, fishing, and lunch to go, what a deal! Nick was timely, attentive, and professional. Highly recommended.
Nick was awesome! 2 out of 3 of us caught Goliath Gtouper, one of us caught a bonnet shark, not to mention all the catches in between! What a day, could not ask for a better guide. Highly recommend Nick!!
