Come spend an exciting day onboard one of Reel Sporty Charters’ action-packed water adventures. It’s sure to be a great day of fishing on the pristine waters of the Fort Pierce area! Captain Ricky Spikes grew up fishing the Treasure Coast and has extensive experience navigating around the local fishing grounds. No matter what fish you’d like to target, if it’s in season, he’ll know where to start looking.

With this much horsepower behind you, you can rest assured that you’ll waste no time in getting to the desired fishing spot. The boat’s spacious design can accommodate up to six anglers, all of who can fish at the same time.

Depending on the fish you decide to target, you’ll be able to try out a variety of fishing techniques such as trolling, bottom fishing, live baiting, and fly fishing. Fly fishing should be arranged with the captain ahead of the trip so that he can prepare the gear in time. All other fishing tackle will also be provided by the captain, you’ll be equipped with world-class Shimano and Penn gear as well as an assortment of artificial lures. Live bait will either be caught at the beginning of the trip or just ahead of it, either way, it’s included in the price.

The charter will also cover your fishing license so you don’t need to worry about getting one before your trip. You’ll also have a cooler with ice and bottled water that you can also use for any other food and drinks you chose to bring. Other than that, don’t forget your sunglasses and sun protection.

About the Captain

Member since July 2019
Captain Ricky grew up on the water and has been tied to it in one way or another his whole life. He's been fishing the Treasure Coast since he was a youngster, getting familiar with the behavior of local fish and learning the best fishing spots to target them at. He went on to get his Captain's License in 2014 and he started sharing his vast knowledge with guests ever since. Regardless of the species you're looking to target he'll know where to find it. If it swims in these waters, captain Ricky has caught it numerous times.
