Hop aboard the 24' Yellowfin bay boat and see what all the fuss is about. This vessel comes powered by a 300 HP Mercury Verado, that provides speedy and agile fishing in a variety of waters. Whizz off to the productive grounds, before quietly pursuing your spooky targets in the shallows. Equipped with twin livewells, a built-in cooler, and a 10' Power-Pole anchoring system, the boat has everything you need for a successful fishing trip.
Get in touch with your captain before coming aboard, and let him know what you'd like to do. Choose between calm water backcountry fishing, as well as reef and wreck trips, or even head to the deep waters. Capt. John can advise what's best based on your age and experience, and you can rest assured that you'll be in for a trip tailored to your needs.
Backcountry fishing takes place in the flats and bays looking towards the Gulf of Mexico. You'll mainly be using spinning gear with live bait such as mullet, pilchards, and crabs, but your target is up to how. Fancy the holy grail of Permit and Tarpon? No problem. How about Redfish, Snook, and Trout in the backcountry? You've got it. A trip to the reefs for Barracuda, Snapper, and Grouper? It's yours.
Reel Easy Charters will go out of its way to make sure you have a day to remember. All you need to do is bring some drinks and snacks and settle in for a thrilling day with Reel Easy Charters.

We had a fabulous morning with Zac on the open water. We set out for deep water to fish a spawning mass of mangrove snapper. The fish were biting as soon as the bait hit the water, and my teenage boys were thrilled. We caught 25 before we decided to try shark fishing. We went to a different location and set out some barracuda as bait. Sadly, we did not catch sharks, but we did see a big one! Zac was a great guide and interacted well with my family. Overall, we had a great day.
thanks for the great review!
We had Captain Zack which simply asked what fish we were looking to score on our trip. With a big smile, I told him “Sharks!.” Without hesitation he said that we could do that. We caught 3 sharks in the first 2 hours and then spent the next 2 hours fishing Snapper for our lunch, which we successfully maxed out. So not only did I get to fulfill a lifelong dream of mine, but we also got to eat our catch afterwards! I was so impressed with him and he did such a great job with our group. I highly highly reccommend this charter. Thanks again Capt’n Zack!
thanks for the great review Sydney
We quickly caught our limit and Captain Zac Barsuglia even sent fish home with us and recommended a restaurant to cook it for us. He was spot on. My wife loved it (Im allergic to fish). I love fishing but my wife is a good sport to go with me. Captain Zac was so patient with us and helping my wife get the hang of things. She had so much fun. THEN we caught some sharks. Caught a half dozen in a half hour. Plus lost a couple. DEFINITELY highly recommend Zac. We even did some bragging at the restaurant to dome inquiring people that definitely want to check him out. Thanks Zac and Reel Easy Charters out of Key West!!!
thanks for the great review Ben
Had an awesome day fishing with Captian David! We started off with getting some bait and headed towards the storm for some tarpon. Landed a 5-6ft tarpon after an over 2 hour fight. Then we headed towards shallow waters for grouper and snappers. We ended the day with a nice Barracuda! Captian David was very knowledgeable and we were able to target all the species we wanted to. Would highly recommend and would go again.
thanks for the great review Joseph
while fishing for snapper we had a couple of pick ups by a goliath grouper . Captain got out a rod that mounted thru the rod holder on the gunnel . the put on a large jig baited with a live fish 8-10” long. It wasn’t long and we had a taker. She cranked it in. he was over 60” long and likley over 200 lbs. She is about 80#. now she just wants to go fishing again.
thanks for the great review Michael!
