Reel Contender Fishing Charter
Delray Beach has a fish with your name on it, so let Reel Contender Fishing Charter help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Jordan, allowing you to benefit from years of professional experience.
The fish in these waters include Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Swordfish, Tiger Shark, Tilefish, Mutton Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, King Mackerel (Kingfish), and more, depending on conditions. On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Ransom can also have you kite fishing.
Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
Your trip begins aboard a 33' Contender center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter will cover your fishing license for this trip, so all you have to do is show up for the trip! Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect. Don't leave home without sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now's the time to experience fishing in Delray Beach for yourself, with Reel Contender Fishing Charter!

Brought home dinner!
Tonight we feasted on fresh tuna! We started our expedition and quickly landed two large black fin tunas. Over the rest of the day had to make do with two bonitos and competed with a shark for a kingfish—the shark won! But with the tuna already packed on ice, we were “playing with the house’s money” and were assured of coming home winners. Thanks to our terrific captain, Ransom, for working so hard to make sure we had a great day.

With fresh bait, slick presentation, and years of experience - Capt Ransom and Jordan had my family hooked up. Our family had a great trip that provided us with absolutely incredible memories and my 6 year old sons Mutton bragging rights that will last forever. (Or until the next trip) Their boat provided comfort, shade and stability that we all were impressed by. Pretty incredible experience in itself to ride out on a 32 Contender. Thank you again.

Top tier when it comes to charter boats! Captain & crew are very knowledgeable an accommodating! Reel contenders works hard to find the fish and is not a one trick pony! I’ve caught several different highly sought out fish on this charter. If I’m fishing south Florida ReelContenders is the charter I’m booking! Affordable and leaves you wanting more.
