Captain Brad Nowicki
Capt. Brad is something of a renaissance man within the Key West fishing fraternity.
Captain Brad is a natural “Conch” meaning he was born and raised in the keys. With saltwater running through his veins from an early age, Brad has accumulated more hours on and under the sea already than most veteran retired guides ever achieve. As a commercial diver and collector of live tropical fish, Brad has a unique perspective of fish species and habits in their natural environment on the reef and in the shallows of the lower keys and Key West.
Gifted with an outgoing and patient personality, Captain Brad is the complete Light Tackle guide. Possessing a vast knowledge of flats to offshore fishing Captain Brad now offers his guest wonderful options when fishing together.
Captain Brad is equally happy to head offshore in the Atlantic to “blue water” in pursuit of the fabled sport fish of the Gulf Stream such as Marlin, Sailfish and Tuna, or to the natural reef home of Snapper and Grouper, Barracuda, and the apex predator shark. The Gulf of Mexico has been Captain Brad’s playground since childhood and few guides are as familiar with the hundreds of remote shipwrecks via his hours spent diving them. The Gulf wrecks provide world class fishing for the elusive Permit, Cobia, and super aggressive Bull Shark. Captain Brad’s shallow water talents are equally impressive, specializing in Tarpon, Sea Trout, Redfish, Bonefish and Permit fishing.
Capt. Brad has been featured on multiple fishing television programs, including the Discovery Channel’s #1 hit show “River Monsters” season 8, episode 3 and numerous appearances on George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing. From the helm of his immaculate 34′ Yellowfin “Off the Rock” Captain Brad provides his anglers with state-of-the-art fishing equipment. Plus, with leading edge technology at his fingers tip’s and all the creature comforts anglers demand, Captain Brad is the perfect choice in Key West. Captain Brad takes immense pride in offering his guests the ultimate fishing experience in Key West.

Testimonials
Lots of fish! Lots of memories!!
What a great day of fishing the keys!! Our guide, Capt. Brad Nowicki, was very knowledgeable and fully prepared to get us out on the fish quickly! Nice big boat stocked with everything we would need.
We caught a bunch of fish… yellow tails, grouper, trigger fish, barracuda, and my son even landed a personal best 27 lb. Almaco Jack! This trip was my son’s graduation gift and he really wanted to catch a shark. Unfortunately, we couldn’t seem to hook one (certainly not due to Capt. Brad. He tried everything for us. The sharks just were not having it.)
We spent a week in the keys and the charter was the highlight of our trip. My wife, son, and I definitely made some Great memories today! Thank You Key West Pro Guides! We would definitely recommend you guys!!
