I have used Nick twice in my visits to ANI!He is awesome! Both times made me want to go fishing again he knows the area and the fishing and we had a blast! (And not just because I caught the most and biggest fish ?) Both trips were amazing!! I would recommend his services anytime!

My family stayed on Anna Maria Island in December 2022 and our 8 year old son wanted to go fishing in the ocean. Captain Nick took my husband and son out and we caught snook and snapper, some trout, and lady fish. Our son also caught bonnet head, spinners, and black tip sharks. They had such a great time that they insisted I go out, too. Next day Captain Nick took my son and I out, and we had an absolutely incredible experience. All my guy wanted to catch was shark because it’s so fun and such an amazing experience, and Captain Nick knew just where to take us. He had all his poles rigged up with the right tension and tackle, and even offered to bait the hooks each time for us. He was so patient and a great teacher (for both of us), and made the fishing tours the best part of our trips to AMI.I highly recommend Captain Nick for a guided fishing tour, hands down. We even got to enjoy watching dolphins chase their dinner down and eat, and playing in our wake on the way back at the end.

We have used Nick and his service three times. He is professional, friendly, and excellent at running a charter for kids and young teens, and even a novice like me. . Every time we have gone, we have had tremendous success. We used him Thursday, February 2 and came home with more hogfish and snapper than we could feed our family with two times. I have heard great things about many of the charters down here, but we will always use graham slam.

If you wanna have a fun day out on the boat fishing I highly recommend Graham Slam Fishing Charters! Me and my fiancé had a relaxing time exploring the waterways of Anna Maria, Longboat Key, Palma Sola and Cortez. Captain Nick is super knowledgeable of the area, wildlife, and best places to catch fish. Very cool experience!

Captain Nick was very responsive and knowledgeable. We had a great day catching 20+ snook. When the tides changed we moved to where the action was at. We will use his service again in the future and would recommend to beginners as well as experienced, seasoned anglers.

We had a wonderful time on the water! Caught are limit on Spanish mackerel and caught a few snapper (when ever the bait mad it passed the mackerel) . Highly recommend this charter. The captain was very friendly and put us on fish. I will definitely be back in the near future.

Nick didn't show for our trip after texting to confirm the time and meeting place the day prior. Didn't communicate until 30 minutes after our start time and then went silent, didn't give us direction on whether we should wait for him, reschedule, go in the afternoon, etc. Just ghosted us basically. Frustrating experience.

We had a great trip with Captain Nick. He put us on lots of snook and a handful of keeper trout. This was my first time catching snook.We also caught a good size red fish. Captain Nick was laid back and personable, but still worked hard to put us on fish. He was good with my 11 year old nephew--who said it was the best fishing trip he had ever been on. If we make our way back to AMI we will be going back out with Nick and Graham Slam Fishing.

Nick Graham is the best fishing guide that I have ever been out with. I have been fishing for many years. He gets up early to net fresh bait for the day of fishing. Born and raised on the water where he takes his guests. I caught several enormous snook that we released. I highly recommend Nick for a day of good fishing.

This fishing charter exceeded my expectations. Nick is a very friendly, easy going guide. He has a lot of fishing experience and knows the area well. My friend and I caught a ton of fish - snook, Spanish mackerel, snapper, and grouper. Nick was patient and knowledgable. He answered all of our questions about the area, kept our hooks baited, and helped us land some big fish. This charter was the highlight of my weeklong vacation. I will absolutely book another charter with Nick next time I'm in the area!

Nick provided my daughter, her boyfriend and myself with most enjoyable experience on a beautiful morning to mid-day fishing excursion in Tampa Bay. Not only did Nick provide constant attention to my amateurish fishing skills that included baiting the hook, replacing lost hooks and dehooking caught fish, he also ended the day by filleting the catch so they were ready for our evening meal at home. His knowledge for identifying fish species, their habits and breeding schedules and the Florida rules for retaining or returning a caught fish was unequivocal. However, the part of the day I enjoyed the most was experiencing the love he has for the Tampa Bay ecosystem and how effectively he advocates for maintaining its health. He motored us to different fishing sites that varied from the deposited rock formations near the Skyway bridge to the quiet inlets near Bradenton and Anna Maria Island just so we could appreciate the incredible variety of plant and sea life that this area has to offer. He is a reassuring example that my children’s generation will be more reliable stewards of our planet than their parents’s generation.
