Reel Teal is just the next stage, started with the goal of making a living doing what we love. Our goal is to exceed customer expectations, and to provide unique experiences at an affordable price.

    we had a great time

    6hr Morning Inshore/Offshore • 2 adults

    We caught some ringtail, a small black bass, a couple small hogfish, several sheepshead. Captain Tony was friendly and knowledgeable and put us onto fish. This trip is great for anyone who wants to have a great day on the water and bring home some fish to eat. parking can be a challenge as there a few parking spaces at the boat ramp.

    Reported catch:
    Black Seabass
    Black Drum
    Sheepshead
    Grunt

    best in sure trip ever

    6hr Afternoon Inshore/Offshore • 2 adults

    Tony put me on fish first stop. But I couldn't hookup on a Sheps head, he took the time to tell me how to hook them. And it was on, caught so many I lost count. Then we went to another spot and caught reds. About took the pole out of my hands. By far the beast in sure trip ever. Had 3 live baits & cut bait. Would recommend to everyone. Will be back next year. Caught so many my arms are sore

    Awesome Trip

    4hr Morning Fishing Charter • 4 adults

    Tony is the MAN! We had the best time fishing with him. He is incredibly knowledgeable and knew where the best spots were. We wanted to catch flounder since the season was open and he knew exactly where to go. He showed us the flounder fishing technique and it worked perfectly. We landed three keepers! We can't wait to go out again with him sometime soon.

    Reported catch:
    Black Drum
    Flounder

    First trip in the area.

    6hr Morning Inshore/Offshore • 3 adults

    Vacationing with my family in an area we’ve never been to before. Very happy I found Captain Tony for our charter. I asked for a trip targeting Redfish and we had our limit before noon. Then he took us for some sheepshead which is a fish I’ve never caught before. Got a nice one for dinner. Very satisfied with our day.

    Reported catch:

    Captain Tony was patient with all of us especially my grandson and husband. He did exactly as we wanted in helping to teach my 10 year old about how to set the hook so he wouldn't lose them after the bite. Thank you for a fun memory.

    Captain Tony was fantastic! We had a slow start but Capt. Tony stayed flexible with what fish was and wasn't biting and where. Moving to where we needed to be. He was super patient with our kids and I would highly recommend him! We will definitely be booking with him again in the future.
