Captain Nick moved to Southwest Florida in 1989 and it was at that time where his love for the waterways of Southwest Florida and fishing began . Growing up on the bimini basin canal system in Cape Coral enabled him to fish daily, navigate the waterways and learn from some of the best in the area. Captain Nick is not only a USGC licensed captain but a Licensed Loan Originator and Realtor in the state of Florida.

    Fun and Wonderful Day!

    Half Day Fishing4 adults

    This was our second time with Captian Nick this year. My 13 year old had an absolute blast and it was the highlight of his October trip so much so that he HAD fish with Captian Nick during his spring break trip. Captian Nick was helpful to all of us, knew just where to find the fish, and was extremely attentive during time on the water. He was patient with my son and helped him to not only have fun, but become a better fisherman. Will definitely continue to book with him in trips to come.

    The Snook Were Biting!

    Half Day Fishing3 adults

    My teenagers and I LOVED our 1/2 day snook fishing in the mangroves. The weather was beautiful, the waters calm. The captain communicated great before our trip and sent us pictures after. Very nice boat and very clean! We felt safe! And Captain is amazingly skilled at his craft and I enjoyed him sharing techniques and sharing his love of snook with my son! Captain was VERY patient with our lures caught within the mangroves. He had plenty of live bait to bring in the fish. I lost track of the amount of snook my kids caught. Great pics! Great memories made! 10/10!

    Ture SW Florida fishing with a Real Local Captain

    3/4 Day Fishing4 adults2 children

    My family of four had an absolute blast fishing with Captain Nick. He had us in fish from our first cast to some technical casting i. the end of our day. We did the 3/4 day and it was perfect for our 10 and 11 year old. We caught 10 species and learned a ton about the area and seasons to better plan of next SWFL fishing experience. We were also thrilled tp see dolphins and manatees and an aray of bord species. If you take the time to read the reviews as we did. they are spot on and Captian Nick is definitely the goide to choose.

    Very knowledgeable and experienced captain.

    Half Day Fishing2 adults

    Nick was very knowledgeable and experienced, my wife fishes but was hesitant with casting off the boat, Captain Nick had no problem casting for her, especially in tricky areas. We had fish biting right away, caught quite a few fish. Very pleased with our experience, and would highly recommend to anyone else looking for a great charter experience!!!

What's biting with SWFL Premier Charters in Fort Myers

Fort Myers becomes less crowded in September as families take the kids back to school and hurricanes threaten. Water temperatures are still warm, so look for deep holes and shade, targeting Redfish, Snook, and Trout.
