Captain Nick – Keeper of Poseidon’s Waters.

From casting lines with his father to commanding vessels across the Gulf, Captain Nick has spent a lifetime answering the sea’s call. A former deckhand and engineer with Empress Cruise Lines and SunCruz Casinos, he knows the tides like an old friend. Now a USCG Licensed Captain, Nick shares his passion for fishing, storytelling, and the thrill of the hunt with every crew he guides. Under his command, you don’t just fish — you become part of Poseidon’s legend.

Captain Jordan – Chosen by PoseidonBorn in Indiana but destined for the sea, Captain Jordan turned childhood dreams into a life upon the water. From freshwater lakes to Florida’s saltwater realms, his skill and passion run as deep as the tides. A true guardian of Poseidon’s realm, he carries a love for fishing and ocean conservation — especially for whales and sharks. When not leading voyages, he’s surfing, diving, or chasing adventure on land and sea alike. With Captain Jordan at the helm, every trip becomes a story the ocean remembers....

These guys are Awsome!!! Captain Nick was so sick with Kidney Stones and you couldn’t tell. He still took us out, I felt so bad for him. He went straight to the E.R. after. We caught over 60 fish as soon as we put our line out we were pulling them in! Great guys, highly recommend!

Captian Nick and 1st mate Trey were amazing...! The bite was a challenge but our guys never gave up or stopped. A few moves and we caught plenty of fish for dinner with some decent groupers to top it off. Nice variety of fish from one of the biggest White Grunt I've ever seen, big Laine Snappers, Vermillion Snappers and a bunch a almost keeper Red Snapper mixed in. (Stubborn snappers...) Its called fishing, not...

Its called fishing, not catching... Loved their personalities from the start, conversation came easy and made for a very comfortable trip out. Thanks to both for a great day out on the beautiful Florida waters. WE WILL BE BACK from Philly, PA next year...! 🫡🎣💪

Nick was a 10/10 captain took me and my boys out for my bachelor party fishing. Within 5 mins of fishing at the spot everyone had caught a fish. We caught over 40 fish in 4 hours and had 20 keepers to take home and cook. Best part of fishing with Nick was hanging out with him. Made sure we all had a great time, will definitely be doing another trip soon with him. Don’t

Had a great time with Captain Nick and Tyler! Took us to several spots and caught lots of different types of fish. Captain Nick spent time cleaning all the fish as well to be able to take home several bags of fish for dinner.

The rods of gods are arguably the best charter group I have been on. These guys were phenomenal and even in all of my experience off shore fishing I learned some new things. Exceptional spots to fish at along with exceptional gear. Excellent time would only work with them if I go again!
