Meet Captain Nathan Diaz
I’ve been very lucky and fortunate to call Tampa Bay home for my whole life. I started fishing with my Dad at a very early age. From offshore adventures to the middle grounds, to fishing the flats – we did it all!
I always knew that I wanted to make a career on the water, sharing with locals and visitors all that Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico has to offer.
Here's what others have to say

Captain Nate was amazing! We had an absolute blast and caught way more fish than we hoped for. My teenager was elated and he had a perfect day on the water. Capt Nate’s knowledge of the area and what/how to catch was clear and really made the experience perfect. Very friendly, easy to talk to, and accommodating. I’ll definitely charter his service again when my other son can be in town. When our original date ended up being really windy, instead of going ahead and having a poor fishing experience, he worked with our schedule to fit us in on a better day so that the trip would be perfect.

Capt. Nate helped my family have a great time with memories we will cherish for years to come! His laid back demeanor was great with the kids and he knew where to go to get bites for everyone! We had a great time, the equipment was top notch, the captain was amazing, and the weather was incredible!!!
