Reel Insanity Fishing Charters operates out of Pompano Beach, FL, offering half and full-day adventures going after the area’s endless mix of big, tasty fish. Drop your lines around the reefs to reel in Snappers and Triggerfish or set your sights even higher and go after big game pelagics. Whatever you target, you’re in for a lot of fun and some hard-fought battles in these deep, warm waters.

You’ll be fishing aboard a Topaz Express powered by twin caterpillar motors. She’s no slow coach, that’s for sure! At 38’ long, the boat has enough room for 6 anglers to fish and relax in comfort. She boasts a full array of safety gear to make your trip fun and worry-free. She also has a covered top to keep the hot Florida sun at bay.

The seafloor drops so quickly here that it takes less than half an hour to reach the fishing grounds. Once you get there, what you target is up to you. You’ll be given quality Penn and Shimano tackle to match your target species, so no fish is too big!

Speed out for a few hours on the reef or stay out all day to battle Tuna, Mahi Mahi, and even Sailfish. You can also head out at night, hitting the reef lines under cover of darkness to take on the monster bottom fish that show up when the sun goes down.

Whatever you do on your trip with Reel Insanity Fishing Charters, you can rely on Captain Robert Pujol’s 25 plus years of local guiding experience to make your day special. He provides all rods, reels, tackle, and lures, as well as fishing licenses for everyone onboard. Just bring sunscreen, sunglasses, food and drinks, and plenty of energy for the day ahead. You’re going to need it.

Born and raised in Miami, FL, I am a true native Floridian. I was always on and around boats as my dad was a commercial fisherman. I bought my first boat at the age of 13 and never looked back, as the sea and fishing are my passion! I have over 25 years of experience in boating and a lifetime of local fishing knowledge.
