    Best trip ever!!

    6 HR Trip - Deep Sea Fishing • 2 adults • 1 child

    I took my 12 yr old son on a fishing trip to Pompano Beach. With so many charters out there, we picked Captain Lacy Ingram and Reel Stubborn Charters, after watching all of his YouTube videos. It was an amazing trip. Captain Lacy brought along his son as his crew. Both were absolutely the best. Their knowledge on everything (fish,the ocean, wildlife, boating, and of course fishing), was really awesome. Catching fish, was just an added bonus! They both treated my son and I like family. Both of them are so enthusiastic about what they do, it makes the trip so enjoyable. Can't say enough good things!! We'll definitely be back!

    Reported catch:
    Great Barracuda
    King Mackerel (Kingfish)

    Amazing Trip!!!

    6 HR Trip - Deep Sea Fishing • 4 adults

    Still smiling from one of the best experiences ever—our deep sea fishing trip was absolutely incredible! From the moment we headed out, the views were stunning and the captain made everything easy and fun. He was knowledgeable, patient, and knew exactly where to take us. The fishing itself was amazing—Whether you’re experienced or it’s your first time, this is something you have to try at least once. The thrill of the catch, the ocean breeze, and the memories we made… just unforgettable. Highly recommend Lacy with Reel Stubborn this trip to anyone looking for adventure, relaxation, and a whole lot of fun on the water! Thank you soooo much Lacy SC

    Great Offshore Day

    8 HR Trip - Deep Sea Fishing • 1 adult

    Captain Ingram is awesome!! Beautiful Conch 27...Clean and well organized boat that shows pride and professionalism in what he does. Captain Ingram is engaging, conversational and genuinely a great guy to hang out with while fishing. I enjoyed talking and joking around while trolling and Kite fishing. I did an 8 hour trip and for me it flew by. We had a tough day with a lot of weeds but he NEVER gives up, tries various techniques and presentations to catch fish and stays in contact with other vessels out in the ocean collaborating about whats working. At some point I will be back in the area and will absolutely check with him to go out again.

    Response from Captain

    Yes sir we got it done! Fun day with you on the water

    Great experience

    Late Start 4 HR - Deep Sea Fishing • 2 adults

    We took the 4-hour tour starting at 8am with Captain Lacy on the Reel Stubborn Fishing Charter and had a fantastic experience. It was a bit of a slow start, but Captain Lacy stayed persistent and kept working to find the fish. His effort paid off and we ended up landing two great ones—a wahoo and a tuna—which made the trip even more exciting. Captain Lacy was very professional and you could tell he genuinely cared about making sure we had a great time. He even stayed out an extra 30 minutes on the way back to the dock to give us another chance to hook one more fish, which we really appreciated. We’d definitely book with him again the next time we visit Florida and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great fishing trip.

    Reported catch:
    Wahoo
    Albacore Tuna

    You guys are great! fun day. lets do it again!

    you wont regret it.

    8 HR Trip - Deep Sea Fishing • 2 adults

    iv been a long time fisherman. iv been lucky to do some amazing fishing in my life on different guide boats and even live in worlds class fishing area myself. you cant fake knowledge which capt lacy has. Capt lacy is also very patient with you. I probably annoyed him with a million different questions everything from what tides you want to fish to water temp to gear size and he explained everything in detail. even if we didnt catch anything my wife and i had a amazing time we were very fortunate to catch very large wahoo and a very large sail fish and even a couple Baracouda and had probably dozen other bites and lost 1 near the boat. can’t recommend capt lacy enough.

    Reported catch:
    Great Barracuda
    Wahoo
    Sailfish
    Response from Captain

    you guys are awesome! please come back and lets do it again! was an epic day fishing with a wahoo and sail on the same day.

    Capt Lacey and Brandon were awesome. Great people to be around left the dock on time were fishing in 10 min and had the first fish on almost instantly. Fun filled 3 hours of nearly nonstop action. I picked the right charter for me and my son. Can’t wait to go again!

    Reel Stubborn fishing is legit. Great boat in great condition. Knowledgeable and friendly captain worked to get us on the fish. Had an unexpected thrill catching a summer sailfish.

    My daughter and I had a great time fishing today. The water was a little choppy but well worth it once we got to the fishing area it wasn’t bad at all. We caught a couple of Mahi Mahi’s and enjoyed them for dinner tonight! Thanks Captain Lacy!

    Captain Lacy did a phenomenal job! The fish activity wasnt in our favor but he went out of his way to make sure we had a good time and landed with a monster Catch. 10/10

    We would highly recommend Lacey as your captian!! We caught our first mahi within 30 minutes of leaving the dock. After that it was non stop bites, unfortunately many of them didn't hook up or came off while reeling but it was non stop action. Lacey had tons of advice and answers for questions, and he didn't waste time getting to switching spots or techniques if it slowed down. 10/10 experience, would definitely recommend!

    Incredible experience. This was my first off shores fishing trip. We had the odds stacked against us. The weather wouldn’t cooperate and the sea had some crazy swells. Captain Lacy took me out and put me on a 54 lb Wahoo. This was a memory maker for sure. Thanks again Captain Lacy!!!

    Captain Lacy was great! Even with not so great weather he got us on some fish and we landed one Sailfish! I would highly recommend booking a charter with him. I will be back for sure!

What's biting with Reel Stubborn Fishing Charters in Pompano Beach

Sailfish are back in their prime and the reefs are always bursting with life. The cooler weather will make reeling in those huge bottom fish a lot easier, too, so get out there and grab some!
