Reef Relief Charters

Member since May 2018 St. Petersburg, United States
Background
My father and I have been fishing the gulf for over 25 years. We lobster in the Keys, scallop in Crystal River, and fish out of John's Pass. We enjoy being on the water and bringing home some of Florida's best seafood. And we are passionate about helping other people fall in love with Florida's best as well!
Techniques
We love heading offshore and fishing hard bottom for grouper and snapper. We have freelines at the top of the water column for cobia, kingfish, and tuna. During the kingfish runs we will do some trolling also. We do whatever it takes to get fish in the boat!
