    A TEN star captain!

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on April 24, 2026 • 2 adults

    after we went through all reviews on different charters in FishingBooker, we decided to go fishing with Captain Jaime. however, all his weekend trips had been all booked, so we booked a Friday trip! oh man! thanks to all the honest reviews from all his customers, captain Jaime is a top notch captain, he knows his fish and much beyond! in the first hour, we’d already almost limited out our oversized reds! a fascinating trip. captain Jaime keeps his boat clean, well maintained, everything runs smoothly, there is not a minute wasted. we are so impressed! we strongly recommend Captain Jaime to any anglers who want to enjoy a productive yet fun fishing trip. we will book his charter again from now on. thank you Captain Jaime! if i could give you a ten stars, you will get one. we look forward future trips with you.

    Great Trip

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on September 22, 2026 • 3 adults

    Jaime put us on the fish in the first 30 minutes of the trip. Even though September is typically slow we eneding catching a good amount of red snapper, some spaniah mackerel, trout, and lane snapper. Overall a great trip. Thanks Jaime! ((If you’re reading this, I would suggest if you’re the least but worried about getting sea sick take something for it before heading out.))

    Teenage boys had the best time!

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on July 10, 2026 • 3 adults

    Jaime agreed to take out my son and his friends 16-17 year olds for a fishing experience. 3 of the 4 boys have never fished before. They maxed out their drum tags! The boys all said Jaime was a great captain and they had the best time! Highly recommend!

    Awesome Trip Rough Conditions

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on September 12, 2026 • 6 adults

    Captain Cerda did what he could to get us on fish. started the day with a nice one then the conditions started getting to some of us. Captain took us to calmer waters looking for fish. Though we ended the day with negative fish (we were all joking that trash fish were lowering our totals) it was a great time and will certianly book again.

    Once in a lifetime trip

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on May 20, 2024 • 5 adults

    We hit the mother load. Jaime, our Captain, gave us an experience we will never forget. If we did not catch fish in one spot, Jaime would move to another. We found our sweet spot to catch oversized reds .It was amazing, as soon as we dropped our lines, a fish bit. We did limit out on reds and had a great time doing it. Jaime adheres strictly to the fishing rules and regulations but still allows everyone to have a great experience. Our family visits Port A twice a year and we will use Reel Addiction fishing from now on. I highly recommend this fishing charter company.

    4 Hour – Rod Bending Jetty Trips on June 6, 2025 • 4 adults

    Thanks to Captain Johnny for a FUN day of family fishing and catching. He was especially careful and cautious with the high winds and choppy waters. We would definitely recommend Reel Addiction if you want to catch big fish in the Bay.
