Cole Cookingham5.0VerifiedTimmy and Dave couldnt be anymore amazing
4Hr P.M. Trip – Striper&Bluefish on June 24, 2026 • 2 adultsThe captain Timmy didn’t only look to put us on fish, he hunted for them, and he found them. His first mate, Dave, busted his ass all day setting and checking rods (personally the best mate I’ve ever seen). Sometimes these stripers get lockjaw and dont want to bite anything, but he will continuously hunt these fish for you. Like any other fishing charter, he cannot guarantee a bite - dont let these other guys make you think its a guarantee, go with timmy and he’ll make sure he does his best everytime to get you a fish. hope this helps!! 10/10 recommend

5hour AM Striper&Bluefish Open Boat on July 26, 2026 • 2 adultsHighly recommend Timmy and Dave for their knowledge and professionalism. We booked a wickedly windy day and were thankful that they brainstormed a safe alternative on the fly so that we didn’t have to cancel. We caught a few fish, had many laughs, and enjoyed our morning on the water as out of towners despite the weather. We look forward to a future trip!

thank you Cole! you guys were awesome and a pleasure to have aboard! hope to see you guys in the future!
Captain Timmy and his first mate Dave did everything they could to provide an outstanding experience. we started off on a very clean and well outfitted boat. We caught bait fish, almost immediately, which the kids loved. from there, even though it was very choppy seas, we scoured the coast to find the big fish. Captain Timmy, and his first mate took the time to explain everything about what we were doing, where we were going, and what we were looking for. It was a great experience and a great time with my family! 
thank you Matt! you guys were a pleasure to have aboard!
We had an absolutely incredible time out on the water with Keepin it Reel. From start to finish, the experience was top-notch and professional. It was clear the crew knew exactly where to go and what tactics to use to keep our rods bent all day. If you are looking for a premier Cape Cod fishing experience, look no further than Keepin it Reel. We will definitely be booking another trip!" thanks for an amazing experience!
thank you David! you guys were a pleasure to have aboard! we look forward to seeing you in the future!

thank you Rory! i appreciate your patience and working with us to turn nothing into something! looking forward to seeing you both again!
Captain Tim put us on lots of sea bass, scup, and a couple dogfish and even a fluke. Conditions got a little rough but we moved around to make it work. Went home with a full cooler and some enthusiastic teenagers! We booked last minute the night before and lucked into a terrific boat. Looking forward to going after stripers with Captain Tim in the future.
Thank you so much! im glad you & your family had a great time! You guys were a pleasure to have aboard! look forward to seeing you all again!
