We had an amazing day! Jarod was our captain, he was awesome!!! Best fishing trip we’ve ever done and we highly recommend it. It was 4 of us which was great for the boat.
We caught all kinds of including a permit which was super cool and a fighter. Barracuda, yellow fun, yellow jack, etc.
we got a chance to cool off in some beautiful crystal clear water and then once back Jarrod cleaned our fish and we took it straight over to the restaurant and had it cooked up for lunch!!! Yummy so delicious!
Again best fishing trip ever!!

1st trip to the keys, always heard the fishing was awesome. Booked a 4 hour fish, got Captain Jared. Caught every kind of fish I could think of. Jared knew exactly where to go and where the fish are. Enjoyed this fish so much, I called John and told him I was going to be in the keys for 4 more days and would love to go back out with his team.  The first thing he said was thank you for booking the first trip, the second was what did I want to fish for. I let him know I wanted to go to the reef this time and catch more edible fish. He scheduled me a trip on a bigger boat and we went to the reef. The boat was top notch, and the captain was even better. Caught out limit in no time, and headed to another spot to catch other fish. On our way in we got caught in a severe thunderstorm. They dropped me off at my cottages. I was overly surprised when the captain got off the boat and cleaned all of our fish while the rain poured down. If your looking for 5 star fishing, top notch guides, this is the company to go with. You won’t be disappointed.

If you are even considering booking with Easy Does It/Reel Easy, JUST DO IT.

I initially only booked the Marquesas trip, for myself, fiance and her parents. It was my fiance’s first time and her parent’s had not been out in decades. I go twice a year. Captain Jared welcomed on us on board like we had been fishing with him for years and we went straight out to the Marquesas. We fished a few spots for Tarpon but didn’t find any. We then moved on to a wreck to look for Permit, but they were not there, what we did find were tons of Yellow Jacks and Barracudas; which we had an amazing time sight fishing for. Captain Jared was quickly able to assess the skills of all four of us and gave guidance based on our individual experience level with a level of respect, humility, and thought that is incomparable to any guide I have ever fished with. He certainly fostered a welcoming environment in which questions could be asked and everyone could learn.
We then moved onto another shallow wreck and sight fished Barracuda and boated a 32 pounder. On the way back in, someone made a comment about catching a shark and Jared took us to some flats where we hooked up on two Lemon sharks. We caught and released an incredible amount of fish that day, more Yellow Jacks and Barracuda than we could count.

My fiance and I decided to extend our trip to the Keys just for another day on the water to try to find Permit and Tarpon again. We hit a few spots within sight of Key West before heading to a wreck in the Gulf. Jared put us on many different species that day. In the harbor we caught some snappers, Jack Crevalle and a Snook; we saw the Tarpon rolling. When we ran up into the Gulf, we were able to get hooked up with a couple of Permit and my fiance was able to land one. Considering she landed the Snook and the Permit, we headed back inshore to see if we could get her on the Tarpon bite, but it just wasn’t our day for Tarpon. Simply put, these two days were the most amazing days I’ve ever had fishing. My fiance now says she is a “fisher” with a level of glee that can’t be described. The fact that she almost hit a Grand Slam on only her second day fishing in her entire life, certainly attributed to that. Much thanks to the entire crew at Easy Does It/Reel Easy!

Jared was AWESOME. He took us to great spots- we pulled in a bunch of stuff- grouper, jack, sharks. He kept our hooks baited, answered all my dumb questions, and gave us interesting info about the fish and the keys in general. I can’t wait to come back and fish with him again! 1000% recommend him and reel easy to everyone!!!

Capt called me the day before to recommend the evening trip instead for Tarpon. We ended up with Capt Steve. He gave us the full experience. The ladies enjoyed catching barracuda bait for the shark catch. Then we went to the Tarpon honey hole and plucked out Jack Cravel, Cabrera Snapper, and 2 Tarpon. Everyone got a piece of the catch. Great trip. Primo boat. Big regards to Capt Steve for putting us on the fish. I would highly recommend these guys.
