This was a very special trip.  I fish many days a year on the California Coast.  I asked Tommy to teach me as much as he could about fishing in the Palm Beach area.  He didn’t disappoint.  Tommy is amazingly talented with great boat and rod/bait handling skills.  We found the fish and it wasn’t long before they were coming over the rail. We missed a few that just weren’t motivated to eat the whole bait.  But the rest ended up in the fish hold!!

After many years of fishing I rate the entire experience a 10+.  You will not be disappointed!!!!  Thanks Tommy.  Best of luck and Tight lines!!!

Captain Phil is great, he knew we weren’t looking to bottom fish so he was busy on the kite. We still threw a bait down just to maybe get a grouper/snapper but ended up with a pretty big shark. The fish weren’t biting today and we still managed to get 2 nice black fins, a big cuda who gave us a show which I thought was a king before we got him close, and we hooked a sailfish who got some nice jumps in too before he threw the hook. I’ve never caught tuna before so thanks capt Phil for scratching that off the list and it was delicious off the grill with some lemon salt/pepper like he suggested. He also answered all the questions we had about not only the fish we caught but other species in the area; and other areas as well. He’s very knowledgeable and we learned a lot of cool things today! My only complaint is that the ride out was tough because we had to stand and the seas were a little tough in general but we’ve been on boats so seasickness wasn’t an issue. The wind wasn’t in our favor. I wouldn’t recommend the 28 footer to anymore than 3. 2 was perfect. The ride in was very enjoyable. Overall we caught some big fish which is what we were looking for and we made irreplaceable memories. As long as your party isn’t too large I’d recommend the 28 footer, and I’d recommend Captain Phil for anyone

Captain Rick made our first ever fishing trip Amazing!
Even with me getting sea sick, he was very compassionate and accommodating.
And still put us on 2 awesome sailfish!!!!
Not only do I highly recommend them for your charter but we will be bringing more of our family back to West Palm Beach to see Captain Rick at Reel E Sea Charters!
