About Your Guide
Independent Guide
Captain Nick was born and raised in Massachusetts, commercial fishing for striped bass and Bluefin tuna. After “retiring” early from being a high school teacher, he moved to Marathon in 2005 where he used to vacation with family every year. Nick’s love affair with fishing in the Keys was instant, starting with his first trip to Marathon in grade school.
Why Fish with Nick?
"I own my boats and my business. I captain my own boat, and I am intensely passionate about what I do.
... Read More This means you’re not getting a hired captain on a boat owned by someone else, who is just looking to get out, get back, and get paid. I’m not looking to take anyone out to get them seasick so I can come in early and charge full price like some other operations. I absolutely refuse to come in without a great catch." - Captain Nick

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.
Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
