we meet up with the captain early. He informed us that the tide would be better a little earlier, we went to the private boat ramp that he uses. no worry about vandalism, there. It is under surveillance with cameras and gated access. The captain had excellent communication skills. He really knows the area that you're a fishing in. He put us on a school of about 50 red fish. We caught many fish that day. He even ran the charter a little later because of all the fish that we were catching, You will not be disappointed. thanks Captain
had a great day with you guys. thanks again for business and i hope you guys have an awesome rest of your trip
Captain Steven knows the waters where he'll take you fishing! Captain Steve is polite and provides great customer service to his customers. In a 4 hour trip, we caught more than enough good tasty fish to cook up fresh when we got home for 4 people. He took care of every detail including cleaning the fish! Book a trip with Captain Steve with Reel Fishing Charters of Crystal River today, you won't be disappointed! Nice boat too. Definitely booking again. Had so much fun that we forgot to take photos!
Thanks Dan, I had a great time with you guys. good company and good weather and a great day of fishing is hard to beat.
Today was a great day to collect them scallops! We had the pleasure of booking our trip with Captain Steven Smith. He made sure from start to finish that our trip was a top tier experience! He greeted us with a smile, & gave us his utmost attention & added so much fun to our trip. Thank you Captain Steven for the stellar experience!
thanks Gary! looking forward to the next one .
If you want some Rod Bending Drag Screaming Action come fish with Steven. We had a great full day charter he put us on a school of red and we picked through them and caught some keepers. He also put us on some snappers, grunts and trout.
thanks brother had a great day with you guys
Went on a solo afternoon trip with Capt. Steven today and had a great time. He didn’t just put me in front of the fish and have me reel them in he took the time to explain what we were doing and why. I learned a ton and ended the day with a 24” red and a keeper sheepshead and snapper to round out the box. All in all it was a great trip and I will definitely be back again next time I am in town.
Thanks Anthony, you did great for a self proclaimed “bass guy” . Im Glad you had a good time out on the saltwater and I hope we get to do it again sometime.
