Melany Parrott4.7VerifiedFantastic Family Fishing!
4 Hour Trip – Family Fishing (PM) on June 11, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 childrenWe enjoyed our trip with Captain Cliff and First Mate Austin immensely. Our first time deep sea fishing had us all curious, excited, and even trepidatious, but they were so patient and helpful with us. We caught twice the number we kept and had a wonderful time. (Trigggerfish, Vermillion, and Red Snapper) Captain Cliff went above and beyond to ensure a great and safe time on the water. Many thanks to Austin for your expertise! We look forward to deep sea fishing in the future! We would def join the REEL GRACE on the water again.

6 Hour Trip (AM) on March 31, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 childrenEarly in the season, so no big fish; HOWEVER, we had plenty of action catching vermillion snapper and some triggerfish. Captain Atwell provided a solid experience and kept everyone busy!!!! Mate Austin never stopped moving, kept everyone untangled, baited, and handled all the caught fish expertly. Very patient with those of us getting occasion tangle or coaching on best way to get bites. First family fishing trip was a HUGE success!!!!!
