Inshore fishing has the wonderful feature of being both relaxing and incredibly thrilling! Join Captain Mark Reeves as he takes you on an unforgettable fishing adventure in the beautiful waters of Crystal River.
Climb aboard his 2021, 24' custom-built Pro-Line boat. Her design allows for up to 4 anglers to fish at the same time, in comfort, without bumping elbows. Don't worry about travel times, as her 150 HP Yamaha outboard engine and sleek hull design allow her to speed along at a maximum cruising speed of 32 knots.
Capt. Mark will take you fishing all around Crystal River. On his trips, you can head off into the inshore waters and battle Bull Redfish or head into the deep blue sea, where you'll bottom fish for tasty Red Snapper.

You can also target Spotted Seatrout, Goliath Grouper, Tripletail, and whatever else you run into!

My son and I had a great time with Captain Mark. Trout, Grouper, Snook, Redfish, Flounder and more... a very successful day of fishing due to the captain's knowledge of the area. Meeting him and getting on the boat couldn't have been more convenient. Highly recommend!
thanks for the review. we had a great time on the water for sure
Captain Mark was a VERY good choice for us. His knowledge of the waters in and around Crystal River was extensive. WEe caught fish, and, yes, evan a Pelican that was released safely with no harm. Capt. Mark shared his expertise and his favorite fish stories that entertained us all day. The members in our party are avid and experienced fishing people, and ALL of us were VERY satisfied and WILL be returning to him again.
Great day on the water. I enjoyed fishing with yall. the weather was not the greatest but that didn’t stop us from having a good time.
We took the morning trip with Capt Mark. He's a really nice guy and guide. We could tell from the radio that other boats were not catching much (wind stopped, tides went slack) but our boat was consistently catching until near the end.
it was a great day for sure.
our captain was very knowledgeable of the area and communicated with other captains of where the bite was. We hit 4 to 5 different spots and caught fish at all spots. Fish on fish fry good night
thanks for rhe review had a great time today.
Captain Mark was really great. He had everything we needed to have a successful trip and was incredibly nice and helpful. We look forward to booking with him again next season!
