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

Had a great time with excellent service. Will definitely use Capt. Nate and Big Bay next time I’m in the area. He was extremely knowledgeable and went out of his way to make sure we had a memorable trip. GREAT WITH KIDS.
