5 HR Federal Snapper AM
Total haul: 65 lbs of fish 🎣 One for the books! We shattered a rod, rallied as a crew, and landed a beast through sheer grit and teamwork. Mike and Jacob both hooked it—Mike took the lead, grinding through the reel like a machine. I jumped in next, and then Mike went full hand-over-hand mode, hauling it in with raw determination. The guides gaffed it, the captain jumped in to help—it was absolute chaos in the best way! Even the snappers and king mackerels put up a fight. Every catch felt earned. 💪 What a trip. What a crew. What a memory. Six proud anglers, one massive catch, and a backdrop of hanging trophies at Fisherman’s Wharf, Port Aransas. The energy? Electric. The teamwork? Unmatched. That beast of a fish being held front and center—earned through grit, broken gear, and a full-on crew effort. 📍 Fisherman’s Wharf, Port Aransas, TX 📞 **hidden content** 🌐 **hidden content** Ask for Jeremy Anderson and his expert fisherman Matt Pantone. Reelthrillz rocked! We did the 5 hour tour. ReelThrillz isn’t just a trip—it’s a legacy.

8 Hour Trip – Offshore
My son, my father and I went out on the 8hr off shore charter with Reel Thrillz yesterday. It was an amazing trip, we came back with a bunch of fish and even more memories! The crew was awesome! They never stopped working to put us on the fish! They helped make the trip better. And the boat is gorgeous - “Controlled Chaos” - a big Ol’ Donzi that was made to get you to the spot fast! Thank you Reel Thrillz, Capt Dave & Matt! We will be back!

8 Hour Trip – Offshore
Capt. Jeremy and Matthew were great. Despite the weather, they did everything they could to put us on some good size fish and for us to be able to have a memorable outing. Definitely will keep them in mind if we ever get to go again.

12 Hour Trip – Offshore
We booked a 12hr trip, with the idea of going out 55 miles and fishing for swordfish. The day started with the captain telling us he is considering cancelling the trip due to very rough seas. He said we would go out and see how bad things were. We were soon VERY seasick. When the boat actually stopped (an hour into the 2.5hr trip out), the heaving (pun fully intended) was terrible, and we were then heaving ourselves. The captain redirected us to fish for snapper, and the rough seas meant that we fished for about 5 minutes max, before reeling in and going back to where the fish were. It was untenable, and we were so sick we had to call it. Our first mate was actually disappointed; he is such a sport fisherman! He was ready for some sword fishing! Everyone was very nice, but I felt like the captain didn't make the call to cancel because he knew we were too sick to make the entire trip.
