CAPT. NICHOLAS BOYD - USCG LICENSED AND INSURED
I am Capt. Nicholas Boyd, I am a father, waterman, self taught fly fisherman, fly tier and a FULL TIME fishing guide here in the beautiful SC low country. I was born and raised in Beaufort, South Carolina and have been fishing the Low Country my whole life. Growing up I was either working hard with my dad as his right hand man or we were fishing. My dad being in construction had a very strong work ethic that has taught me hard work pays off and to give everything 110% that you do in life. I have a huge passion for guiding, I do love catching fish but seeing someone else get it done on the bow is what I enjoy. I live for the moments where the impossible happens. Big Redfish or big fish doing things in their natural habitat is what I love and I strive to present my clients with those opportunities daily. My job is to show you the fish and make it as easy as possible for you to try and catch them. I love to laugh and just enjoy the time that I get to spend with my clients. Though I do like to have a good time, I am also a very knowledgeable fisherman. I always look forward to getting on the water to see what’s in store. When we leave from the boat landing it is all about having a great time and catching that big fish of a life time and making life long memories and friendships. I know there is alot of guides this day and age but I promise you that the bow of my skiff Is a good one to be on. I look forward to see you on the water.
