Reel Addiction Fishing Charters II

Reel Addiction Fishing Charters strives to give you the best fishing experience available in the area! Captain Scooter is at the helm, he was born and raised on the local waters and knows where the fish are and how to catch them!

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Great Barracuda, Amberjack, Cobia, King Mackerel, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Gray Triggerfish, Flounder, Gag Grouper, Black Drum, and whatever else is biting. For these species, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. 

You’ll step aboard a 24’ Blazer Bay Center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with downriggers and up-to-date electronics to guide you safely through these beautiful waters in search of big fish! Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. The charter boat covers your fishing license.

Kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available. Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. Don’t forget to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.
