Full Day Trip – Offshore on June 13, 2025

Over all trip was awesome! I literally booked 12 hours in advanced due to issues with another captain. Sam and his mate Charlie were on there game all day! My girlfriend and I brought in 4 tuna and 4 tile fish! If you’re looking for any type of trip I’d go with Adam! Been around a lot of charters and he is probably top on the list of guys I’d recommend!

Half day (PM) on September 14, 2024

Booking was easy. This was a last minute decision for us so we had poor timing and the weather wasn't the best due to a tropical storm south of us. Adam and Wyatt made the best of the weather. Thanks to their expertise, we caught some fish! We took it all back to where we were staying and fried it up. I'm not a huge fish lover, so I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. It was a lot of fun and I'd highly recommend Sea Reaper Charters. If we're ever back in the area, we'll definitely book with them again.

Most the boats were struggling to get more than 1 or 2 tuna and we had our 8 by 8:30am and then got a limit of tilefish on top with one being almost 10 pounds! Amazing day!

3/4 Day Trip on July 24, 2024

3 Friends and I chartered the Sea Reaper for a 3/4 day inshore. We had a great time. Left the marina on time and got right to fishing. Wes and Adam were a great team. They helped filled our cooler with some rainbow fish and then got us on some red drum for the remainder of the day. Thanks for a great day guys! We will be back!
