Reel Way Fishing Charters
Come and enjoy some of the finest fishing on Florida’s Panhandle with Captain Kenny Way. Based out of the beautiful Pensacola Beach, Captain Kenny of Reel Way Fishing Charters offers inshore trips in the local bays, as well as nearshore trips in the open ocean.
Captain Kenny’s boat is a versatile 27 ft Ameracat center console that has a shallow draft for accessing skinny water at the same time as being big enough to fish off the beaches for larger species. Offering a fast, dry ride, the boat features a T-Top for shade and has plenty of storage on board for all your belongings. It is powered by twin 200 suzuki engines to get you to the fish fast, and features a trolling motor and an anchoring system to keep you close to them. With a full range of electronics and safety gear on board, the boat is ready to take you on the fishing adventure of a lifetime.
During your trip you will have the chance to try out a variety of fishing styles to fish for a range of local species, such as Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Amberjack, Jack Crevalle, Snappers, Kingfish, and Sharks. Captain Kenny carries rods and reels by well known brands Penn and Shimano, as well as a variety of artificial lures and live bait caught before the trip, so that you can have the best chance of having an exciting day out on the water. Fly fishing equipment can also be provided - please inform the captain if you would like to use this method at least a day prior to the trip date.
All the tackle, bait, and lures you will need throughout your trip are included in the price, and the captain will also provide fishing licenses for your whole group. On top of that, once your trip has finished he will happily clean and fillet any fish you decide to take home at the end of the day.
We are federally permitted and can go beyond 9 miles.

CAPTAIN KENNY
Let start this out by saying this was the greatest fishing experience my buddies and I have ever had! Captain Kenny is the man he had us catching fish as soon as we got to our spot! We caught more fish than you could count and we also caught all of our biggest fish we have ever caught! Not to mention we caught a bunch of red snappers and had them fried up at the restaurant directly behind the dock. They were amazing! There is no other way to go Captain Kenny is the best there is! Don’t listen to the crazy lady that left a bad review she is out of her mind! Book with Reel Way for an all around great experience!

Reel Way Fishing Charters and Captain Kenny! What a blast!!!
This was truly the fishing trip of a lifetime! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The weather couldn't have been better, and Captain Kenny was absolutely superb—knowledgeable, professional, and just a genuinely great guy to spend the day with on the water. We started the day reeling in huge Sheepshead, then moved on to Trigger Fish—those things fight like crazy and were a blast to catch! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, Captain Kenny put me right on the Snapper. I landed a 10-pounder, and let me tell you, that was a thrill I’ll never forget! Captain Kenny really knows his stuff—his experience and passion for fishing made this an unforgettable experience. This was a dream trip for me, and I can’t recommend Reel Way Fishing Charters enough. If you're looking for an incredible day on the water with someone who knows where the fish are and makes the trip fun from start to finish, book with Captain Kenny. You won’t be disappointed!

Great time
We had a great time with Captain Kenny, and made some great life long memories on the trip. The fish were biting, and we got to take home enough keepers to feed the family.
