Freeport has a fish with your name on it, so let Reely Blessed Fishing Charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain James can tell you all about the local fishery.

Black Drum, Ladyfish, Redfish, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, and more could be biting, depending on conditions. You'll target your catch by light tackle fishing, popping, trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You're welcome to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Capt. James operates a 22' Carolina Skiff center console with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if 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! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is not allowed.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Reely Blessed Fishing Charters.

    Great time, book the longer trip!

    2 Hour Trip – Beginners (AM) on July 30, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Great trip, took my 12 yo and 9 yo sons, didn’t catch any big fish, but we all caught several smaller fish. Captain James was great, he helped the boys and ensured they had a great time! As everyone else has said, book the longer trip, it’s worth it!

    What a WONDERFUL time

    2 Hour Trip – Beginners (AM) on June 27, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had the absolute best time with Captain James! He was so nice and had such patience with us (we are not avid fisherman) He was very knowledgeable and so helpful when we were reeling our fish in. We are already looking forward to booking with Reely Blessed again!

    A relaxing and memorable trip

    2 Hour Trip – Beginners (AM) on December 24, 2025 • 4 adults

    We had a *really blessed* time on the boat with Captain James. The boat was plenty big for my family of 5. We adventured through some fog early on in the trip, caught a few different species, mostly Redfish and even got the excitement of seeing some dolphins right by the boat. Captain James is very kind, friendly, knowledgeable and patient. We didn't want the time to end! Would definitely recommend and would love to book again.

    Too hot to fish!

    3 Hour Trip (PM) on July 3, 2026 • 3 adults

    James was really nice and tried to get us to places to catch fish but it was just too hot. I wish we had canceled and taken the loss on the booking fee. It was fun but not worth $600. I would recommend James, just dont go fishing when its 90 out!

    2 Hour Trip – Beginners (AM) on July 3, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We were on a beginners two hour trip. Captain James met us on time and put us on some fish within the first 20 minutes. Unfortunately the bite didn’t last. We caught a total of 6 fish. 5 baitfish and one redfish. Nothing big enough to keep. He tried three other spots to get us back on some fish, but it just didn’t happen. He even stayed out an extra 30 mins just to make every effort to get the kids some fish. This is a beginners trip, so we just casted out shrimp and the baitfish we caught. We did not troll. Captain James had plenty of rods and reels, which came in handy the few times we got hung up. He baited the hooks and was willing to cast for us if needed. All in all we had a good experience. Captain James is excellent with the kids. He was personable and very knowledgeable.
