We had a really good time on our fishing trip out of Fort Morgan Marina with Captain Rick and his deckhand, Alabama Girl. They were both fantastic — professional, friendly, and especially great with the kids. They made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.

The boat was in great shape and had everything we needed. It was a bit choppy out on the water, and a couple folks in our group felt a little seasick, but that’s just part of fishing sometimes. Captain Rick handled it all well and kept things moving.

The catch wasn’t quite as strong as we had hoped, but we did land some fish and got to take them home for dinner. Once we got back, the crew cleaned and prepped the fish for us, which was a much-appreciated touch.

All in all, a great trip with a great crew. Just remember: fishing is fishing — you won’t always catch as much as you’d like or reel in the exact species you’re hoping for. That’s no fault of the captain or the equipment. If you go in with realistic expectations and a good attitude, you’ll have a memorable day on the water.

Rick and Stephanie were amazing. We were on fish as soon as the lines were in the water. They both helped us keep our lines baited and in the water and kept the boat clean and safe. Rick was a great coach and worked with me and my 12 year old son explaining the best ways to fish for the Spanish mackerel and spades that we were on. Rick cleaned our fish and packaged them up nicely.
He also recommended different ways to prepare and cook them. We cooked a batch as soon as we got back to our condo and it was amazing. Great time, I 100% recommend you book at trip with them.

captain rick was amazing with the kids and we had such a wonderful time. highly recommend

He was able to put us on fish instantly. We had an amazing time fishing and boating with Captain Rick. Absolutely professional and down to earth. I will be back to fish with him again. Highly recommend Reel Fishing Charters.

We chose a windy day for our trip, but the captain found safe places to fish, was familiar with the area, and made sure we had a positive experience.
