Nearshore fishing charters are a great way to keep your rods bent and put some tasty fish in the cooler! Capt.

We’ll fish live bait on light to medium tackle around wrecks and structure to maximize the live action you and your group experience!

I am a 65 year old avid fisherman and have been on my fair share of fishing charters. Vacationing in Florida and wanting to get on the water I came across Big Bay Charters and Captain Nate Diaz – BTW This the first time I have taken the time to post a review. So hands down the most prompt, personable and professional charter Captain I ever dealt with!! Water temperature wasn’t ideal – with that said we landed some nice Snook, a Jack Crevalle ( an amazing fight!) and he has a secret spot for Bonnet head sharks. Caught 3 in the matter of a half hour. So don’t hesitate to book trip

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!!!
