    A great fun afternoon of reef fishing

    Half day reef fishing. • 4 adults

    We went reef fishing with Captain Nigel and Josiah and just had a great time! Captain Nigel was very knowledgeable about local reefs and took us to two places where we caught a ton of fish including grunts, parrot fish, squirrel fish, and snappers. All four of us got to fish and catch. The final fish and the highlight of the afternoon was when Josiah hooked a large barracuda. Although he tried to hand off the rod to me, we thought it was aporopriate he brought in the fish. We will definitely go out with Captain Nigel again when we come back next January perhaps for tarpon that time to fulfill my bucket list. I highly recommend the Big Reef Charter.

    Fishing with Nigel

    Half day reef fishing. • 7 adults

    Captain and mate were very polite and friendly, replaced hooks/bait as needed, and moved around to stay on fish. Caught fish (e.g., grunts, jacks, parrot, squirrel) and brought home more than enough. We all enjoyed the trip; personally, I would have liked to fish in some deeper waters within or on the edge of the north sound. Would book with Capt Nigel again.

    Fun morning

    Half day reef fishing trip • 5 adults • 3 children

    My son snd I enjoyed a fun morning fishing with Capt Nigel. We caught a bunch of small fish on the reef, keeping enough of the bigger ones for dinner. The boat was comfortable , the tackle was in top shape, and the crew was attentive and made sure we both had a good time. Thank you for taking us fishing!

    Awesome fishing day!

    Half day deep sea fishing trip. • 1 adult

    Niles was awesome! His local knowledge of the fishing around grand cayman was great. We caught several tuna and a barracuda along with several other strikes that didn't land. We were targeting Marlin and had a hookup and another strike. It was a great day of fishing, highly recommend.
