Captain Ritchie was very nice, he welcomed us aboard his boat and treated us like family. The whole trip was easygoing and we didn’t have to worry about a thing.

This trip was awesome. With all the bad weather days before our trip we were still able to catch 17 sail catfish and 1 lady fish. Captain Ritchie was great and knowledgeable of the area.  He made sure that our kids felt involved and engaging while we were outLooking forward to booking another trip with him.

Captain Richie made sure that my grandkids caught fish.  We had a 5-hour trip and we caught our first fish within the first hour.  Caught 11 Spanish Mackerel, several Hard Tails, and 3 Bonita.  I even caught a 6’ Blacktip shark.  We will definitely use Russell’s Coastal Fishing again next year!

my son and i went out with captain Russel today . its was one of if not the best trip i’ve ever been on . No stress , lots of knowledge . it seem like we was fishing with a long time family friend. The day we went was his birthday and it was like he had rather fish than celebrate . i would highly recommend booking a trip with him , i know I sure will . Thanks for the great day full of memories ,it wouldn’t have been the same out you captin Russel .
