Member since February 2019 Nassau, Bahamas
Background
Benson Nicholas is a local of the area and has over 30 years of experience fishing these waters. Growing up, most of his brothers and uncles were Captains and fishermen, so he grew up on the water and decided to do it himself. He went to the Navigation school in NY. His favorite moments on the water come when he hooks a big fish. He likes to provide customers with a good experience and lifelong memories.
