About Us

The Captain

Captain Nick has been guiding in the SWFL area for the past 4 years. He's fished in Alaska, Canada, the Great Lakes, Atlantic, Carribean and Gulf of America. Settling in Southwest Florida for the past 8 years really led to him specializing in the Gulf and calling the Sanibel/Captiva area his home. With an addiction to saltwater and a drive to explore, hunting fish was the only thing that seemed to make sense. 

The Boat

SeaVee 290 open

We operate a 2008 SeaVee 290 open as our craft of choice.  There's a reason why so many guides choose SeaVee. Superior craftsmanship, attention to detail, functionality, ruggedness, and one of the best rides to be had. With 2025 twin Mercury 300's on the back, this boat can cover some serious ground.  

Cleanliness and Comfort

Our boat is meticulously maintained and cleaned after every trip. While still being a hardcore fishing boat, we can also accommodate a wide variety of customers due to the ride and stability of the boat. Handicap? Small kids? Or experienced anglers, we've got it covered.

Safety and Permits

Most Excellent Fishing

This charter is Federally permitted and insured. We carry a license that covers all anglers on the boat. If you're just visiting, no need to scramble for a fishing license. We take safety very seriously and have all modern safety equipment required for a vessel of this size and then some. We get you there and back in one piece. We also pride ourselves in explaining safety on the water and proper fish handling skills so you can get the best pictures!

    Your Boat

    700

    I will charter your boat for a day and show you various fishing techniques so you can always bring home the bacon! The Captain will suggest to you what bait to buy, how to get rigged, then show you how to use it. 500 if we use your tackle. 700 and I'll set everyone up with my equipment for the day.
