Our time on board was fantastic, although our captain was Zach, not Steve. The crew was professional and attentive throughout. Highly recommended!
Captain Steve and Jake made our six-hour trip truly enjoyable for our group of four, two locals and two visitors from Missouri. Their professionalism, skill, and support ensured we had a great time bottom fishing and trolling—catching plenty of fish! The entire day, from captains to accommodations, was outstanding. Our group had a blast, and we’re eager to return for more adventures.

Captain Mike and Skip were incredibly skilled and friendly. I strongly suggest their services for anyone wanting to charter a boat for fishing.
Captain Heather arranged a six-hour combined trolling and bottom fishing adventure for my wife, our two granddaughters, and me, with Captain DJ and Tyler leading the way. We couldn’t have hoped for a better day. DJ and Tyler were fantastic, keeping the kids engaged and landing many fish. Their teamwork and friendly approach made the entire trip comfortable and enjoyable—exactly what we wanted. Huge thanks to Heather, DJ, Tyler, and the whole Captain Experiences team.
What an awesome trip! DJ and Milan did an excellent job helping us catch fish, including a nice bluefish. It was a fantastic day on the water, and I look forward to booking again.
We had an exceptional day fishing, thanks to the great crew and abundant catches. Thank you, Don and Paula!
The kids had a blast catching and fighting several fish, even if we lost a few after tough battles. Captain Tucker made it look effortless and ensured everyone had a wonderful time. As soon as we dropped the first line, we had fish on deck within 15 minutes. The crew also recommended a local restaurant to prepare our catch, which turned out to be some of the best fish we’ve enjoyed. It was an unforgettable day on the water!
We consistently caught fish throughout the trip. The captain and mate were kind, informative, and made the day memorable for everyone involved. Many thanks!
Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed the fishing trip and we’re already planning to return. Steve and his team did an excellent job getting us on plenty of fish and making the experience outstanding.
Zak and Adam were amazing, creating wonderful memories for our family on the water with plenty of fishing fun and great weather. We would definitely book them again.
Captain Zack and First Mate Ty were fantastic, attentive to both kids and adults alike. They were great company, and we look forward to fishing with them again.
Captain Zack and Adam quickly put us on the fish and stayed on top of every need. We would certainly choose them for future trips.
Steve and his team kept our lines busy and responded promptly to our requests. The boat was clean, spacious, and comfortable—offering plenty of shade while still catching a refreshing breeze. I highly recommend giving Reel Deal a try!
Our fishing trip was incredibly fun, and we’ll enthusiastically recommend it to friends and family. Catching nearly 50 fish made the day an absolute blast!
Two key points I learned: Red Snapper fishing requires longer trips, around 10 to 12 hours, rather than short four-hour outings. Overall, the fishing experience was amazing, including catching a variety of large fish, sharks, and spotting dolphins—a truly complete adventure.
The guides answered all our questions and treated us like longtime friends. We would absolutely take this trip again.
We brought a large group to Florida requiring two boats and wanted to use the same company. This turned out to be an excellent decision. Both captains and first mates were fantastic, quickly finding fish and working tirelessly throughout the day. Definitely a company I would book again.
Just wanted to share how much fun my friends and I had fishing with Captain and "Toco." They are the hardest working crew on the dock and have an uncanny ability to find the fish. This trip was a surprise planned by my wife and others, and it exceeded all expectations. A memorable day with professionals who truly know where the fish are. Highly recommended by Ken Dye.
