Excited to go fishing in Marco island?!

That’s what Reel Thrills Fishing Charters is here for! With Captain Erix at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

These waters are known for Great Barracuda, Black Drum, Cobia, Goliath Grouper, Pompano, Tripletail, Tarpon, Spotted Seatrout, Spanish Mackerel, Snook, Mangrove Snapper, Hammerhead Shark, and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Trips with Reel Thrills Fishing Charters are kid-friendly, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You’re welcome to bring snacks!

Your adventure begins aboard a 25’ Parker center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

Don’t leave home without sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
