Half Day Trip – Dock Lights

Dock Light Trip with Captain Nate

My grandson and I went on the dock light trip with captain Nate and it was an excellent experience. I had only fly fished a few times but Nate worked with me and I had a lot of fun catching snook. My grandson had never fly fished before and caught multiple impressive which was amazing for his first time ever! Now he wants to start fly fishing back home. Captain Nate provided a great experience and is a great instructor for beginners.

Full Day Trip – Inshore

Awesome Day on the Bay

Had an incredible time on our fishing trip with Nate. Super laid-back vibe and he clearly knows the water and how to find fish. We were into action pretty quick - caught trout, grouper, jacks, ladyfish, a flounder, and a few snook. He had great gear, gave solid pointers, and kept things fun the whole time. Really appreciated how easygoing and patient he was. If you’re looking for a fishing trip around Sarasota, this is the one.

Half Day Trip – Inshore

Fishing Trip With Captain Nate

We spent a week in Sarasota with our teenage son and this was the highlight of our vacation. We did not have much success fishing on our own from shore and wanted to have a good day on the water before we left. Captain Nate was able to fit us in last minute and we are so glad it worked out. Our son caught dozens of trout and a few other species and now can't wait to come back down for another trip. 10/10 would recommend.

The half day with capt. Nate

Spent a great morning with capt. Nate at Fly Fishing Sarasota. I felt like I was constantly reeling something in. It was a ton of fun catching a variety species including trout, mackerel, jack and ladyfish and you never knew what you would reel in next. He's a very nice guy and made the experience very fun. I would definitely recommend to anyone.

Took my son out for a half-day trip and we both had an unforgettable time. Captain Nate was patient, friendly, and really great with kids. We caught a variety of fish and learned a ton along the way. Watching my son reel in fish with a huge smile on his face made the whole trip worth it. Great experience for families!
