How did you get started guiding?
Actually kinda feel into it. I had a bunch a friends that became guides and kept telling me to start guiding. I was in marine salvage at the time and had been laid off. So I thought I'd try it for a summer and never looked back
What makes you different from other guides?
I think ever guide gives you a unique experience regardless if it's the same style of fishing and everyone does things different. I definitely offer a laid back trip. It's always the customers day and we always try to make their trips with us memorable

Nick was an excellent guide and took us to several beautiful fishing spots. He was really knowledgeable about the fish species and behaviors in Florida. I’d absolutely recommend chartering with him!
