What a great fishing trip. Me and my wife went for our anniversary because she been ask me to go for a while. I decided to do a 2 hour trip just to see how it would go, I wish we would have did a full day. Captain Jake was just a pleasure to fish with. We had a lot of laughs traded so good storys and experiences. We caught a few fish but even if we didn’t we still would have had a great time. He’s very knowledgeable about where and how to fish and I highly recommend if you want to have a great fish trip you won’t go wrong with Captain Jake.

My 7 year old son and I recently booked a trip with Captain Jake and both of us had a great time catching fish and learning about them at the same time from a very knowledgeable and patient captain. We caught every target species we wanted and more! All thanks to Captain Jake who is a local to the area and knows the waters like no other. He was able to put us on the fish at every spot we stopped at! We will defiantly go out with him again when we’re back next year!

We traveled from Texas to get on some snook.  Captain Jake is a very knowledgable local guide.  Great demeanor and customer service. Had a variety of live bait to target multiple species in the livewell when he arrived to pick us up at the dock. Conditions were nowhere near ideal, with tough winds, high pressure and wind churned water in places but he worked hard at multiple spots to get my oldest son on a snook. Other species were caught as well by all of us.  His boat also has a sight tower to help locate fish and is able to provide good direction to cast for more experienced anglers like my boys. It was a great day on the water and will call him again when we come back!

It was the BEST.  Jake is WONDERFUL.  Patient, kind, respectful and at peace.  Every moment was fun.  Especially, when we caught a small shark. Even the times we weren’t fishing.  While he was taking us to another place to fish; he was playing music and allowed us to choose some songs to play.  Drove pacifically. 
He let us be ourselves.  At the dock, he went to get his truck to secure his boat on truck.  While he did that, we had some fun with Florida birds.  He allowed us to feed the birds with the bait we used to fish.
The fish we caught.  He cleaned them up and we were able to keep them.  One of the BEST moments of my life!!!
Blessings Jake!  Thank you for everything!!

Captain Jack Nichols is the real deal—part fishing guide, part local legend, and possibly part fish himself. From the second we stepped on the boat, he had us laughing, learning, and reeling ‘em in like pros (well… semi-pros). Thanks to his patience and Jedi-level persistence, we landed snook, red drum, trout, and mangrove snapper like it was our job.

Communication? Spot on. Captain Jack kept us in the loop, gave clear instructions, and made sure everyone felt confident (even when we tangled lines or missed a hookset). On top of that, he gave us excellent recommendations for local restaurants and businesses—seriously, this guy should run for mayor.

If you want a captain who knows the fish, knows the area, and knows how to make your day on the water unforgettable—book with Captain Jack Nichols. 10/10 would fish again!!
