About Your Guide

Nick T.

Independent Guide 8 years of exp.

Captain Nick was born and raised in Rome, Georgia. He graduated from Rome High School and joined the Electrical Union in Atlanta, Georgia where he completed a 5 year apprenticeship program that allowed him to become a third generation Electrician. He quickly worked his way up through the Electrical field and into Electrical Construction Management. However, he wanted to do more. His love and passion for the Emerald Coast started when he was younger and it was the place he always knew he had to be. He decided he wasn’t getting any younger, so he packed up his life and made the 6 hour trip south for good!

Nick applied for his Captains license, bought a boat and is now sharing his passion with everyone. Captain Nick is a USCG licensed Captain and has all the permits/licenses for you and your family to enjoy a wonderful day on the water. His Boat is a 2004 Cape Horn 22 Bay series with a Yamaha 225 Four Stroke. With him, you can fish inshore in the flats of the bay and offshore in the Gulf.

Captain Nick's mission is to get you to the prime spots faster, so you can spend more time fishing. His Choctawhatchee Bay inshore trips include the surrounding areas and back water creeks. In the bay, you can catch Redfish, Speckled Seatrout, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, flounder and more. His Gulf of Mexico offshore trips give you the chance to catch a large variety of fish without traveling that far away! In the gulf you can fish for American Red Snapper, Amberjacks, Wahoo, Mahi-Mahi, Trigger Fish, Grouper, King Mackerel, Tuna and more.

Captain Nick takes pride in his customer service and want to give you a fishing experience that you will not want to stop talking about! The needs and interests of his clients is always a top priority and he's happy to tailor to fit your needs.

Captain Nick hosts a kid friendly charter. He will also do anything and everything we can to accommodate those with disabilities that may need a little extra help.

Whether you are looking for a thrilling experience or a relaxing day out to enjoy all that the beautiful Emerald Coast has to offer, let Captain Nick turn those bucket list dreams into a reality for your family!

We had a great time with Nick. I love when a guide is so determined to get you on the fish that they’re almost stressed when they’re not biting. Nick refused to allow the fish to hide. He busted his butt to get everyone to their red snapper limit and we even ended up fishing a bit over the time we had allotted to make sure we had our best shot. We had a blast,...
