Great day on the water

Loved every minute! It was a really windy day so we didn't get to go out deep sea fishing but Jeff still made sure we had the best time. We reeled in 3 lemon sharks (catch and release) and a few grunt fish and a couple others.

Operator response

Glad you loved it Mary! You guys were a lot of fun I was grateful we got the job done in the wind, especially with the full boat. You can come out with me anytime!!

Fishing Tour

Capt. Jeff was a great guide. We had two young children that were just looking to catch a few fish and have a good time and Capt. Jeff provided that. We caught a ton of fish and we were able to even bring some in-shore for dinner. He let the kids help with some crab cages, which was a lot of fun and he was very knowledgeable about the area and types of fish. I would highly recommend, his versatility in gear and knowledge in species of fish was perfect. We also caught one of those amazing Key West sunsets on the way back in that capped an already perfect adventure.

Operator response

Yep we were busy and had fun! Glad you and the kids had a good time and were able to go to a local restaurant to cook up your fish. Thanks!

Cool dude, you’ll have fun.

Was honest right off the bat about the less than ideal conditions.We booked immediately because of that.He more than kept up his end of the deal and put us on some great fish despite the weather and time year.Cool dude to hang out with and went above and beyond to save our vacation which had been 5 days of 30+mph wind and our boat rentals being canceled.

Operator response

Luckily we got out there found a calm area despite the winds. Did you ever back down here book with us again!

Great Captain, great fishing!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Fishing Experience! We had an absolutely incredible time with Nice Guys Charters! Captain Jeff — a.k.a. “Captain Cobia” — is the real deal. His knowledge of the water, the fish, and the best spots is next-level. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it shows in the entire experience. My friends and I were reeling in great catches all day long, and the energy on the boat was unmatched. From start to finish, everything felt safe, smooth, and expertly guided. If you’re looking for a charter that delivers excitement, professionalism, and nonstop action, this is the one. 100% worth every dollar — highly recommend!

Operator response

Wow thanks. Wish everyone felt this way after going out with Nice Guy Charters!

Despite the weather and...

Despite the weather and current conditions, our captain was able to pivot and take us to multiple locations. We caught yellowtail, a nice barracuda, and a lemon shark. We had a great time and will come back again!

Operator response

Glad to hear it! We do the best we can at nice guy charters!

Fishing in the gulf

So many fish we caught so much fun we also caught a 7ft lemon shark and we went in the gulf and we used chum and the fish were very close to the boat you didn’t need bait they bit the hook and came in the boat

Operator response

I still love seeing when the sharks come up close to the boat in the chum slick

Great Florida Key experience.

Jeff did a great job accommodating us for the day, fishing was hard that morning and he went above and beyond to try to get us on some fish, and he did, great guide and very knowledgeable about the area and the target species. Thanks again Jeff Peck and Alisa.

Operator response

Glad y'all had fun!
