Reel Rich Fishing
Whether you’re looking for some relaxing inshore fishing, itching for a fight of a lifetime with Sharks, or trying to tick off the Silver King from your bucket list, Reel Rich Fishing has you covered. Located in one of the hottest fishing spots in the United States, they’ll put you on the best bite around, no matter your skill level!
You will fish from their 24’ bay boat, manufactured by Nautic Star. She can fit 6 anglers on board, so get your fishing crew ready for some action. Powered by a 250 HP Suzuki outboard engine, she can develop a maximum cruising speed of 45 knots. Sneak up on the spookiest inshore fish with ease – she’s got a wireless trolling motor on board.
Captain Rich Damianos will be your guide and assistant on this journey. He’s an avid fisherman, competing in multiple tournaments organized by Fishing League Worldwide and Bassmaster. He’s a certified Florida Friendly Fishing Guide, meaning he’s been recognized for his sustainable environmental fishing practices.
You can target a wide range of fish, as well as try out a variety of techniques. Trolling for Spanish and King Mackerel, fly fishing for Tarpon, bottom fishing for Mangrove Snappers, or spinning and drift fishing for Redfish and Snook. Reel Rich Fishing has a varied offer able to cater to anglers of all tastes. The fishing gets hot at the famous Boca Grande Pass and the Pine Island Sound – spots where Capt. Rich will take you.
You will be provided with all the equipment and bait you may need, as well as iced water for refreshment. The captain will also clean and fillet your catch as part of the service provided, so don’t forget to bring a cooler for your catch.
If you’re looking for a charter that can get you up close and personal with the most prestigious fighters of the coast of Florida, book Reel Rich Fishing and get ready to wrestle the big boys!

Excellent experience!
My family had an incredible experience with Captain Rich on our 4 hour charter. He is very knowledgeable, encouraging, fun to be around, and a great communicator. Captain Rich was able to change his plans to accommodate our charter after the original date and time were cancelled due to high winds. We caught several fish including spotted trout, Spanish mackerel, ladyfish, a few bonnet sharks, and a jack. We kept him busy re-baiting our hooks. We were also lucky enough to see and a few manatees in the distance and dolphins near the boat. Captain Rich made quite an impression. I highly recommend his charters!

A great day on the water
Captain Rich worked very hard to keep us on fish. As soon as the bite slowed off we went to a new spot. We caught lots of fish, several varieties. Limited out on speckled trout. Rich is a gentleman and an excellent Captain. We thoroughly enjoyed fishing and chatting with him. We highly recommend this charter. Randy and Ginny Moore
