6 hour day trip with Captain Joe and First Mate Chris

6 Hour Trip–Inshore/Nearshore (AM)3 adults1 child

Highly recommended! Very attentive. Hit numerous fishing spots. Never stayed in a spot long if fish weren't biting! Caught alot of fish and able to keep quite a bit. They made my husband's birthday and our son's first time out on the water very memorable!

    Hooking up!

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    Captain put us on fish and we were hooking up within minutes of being at the spot. he and the first mate were well experienced in the Tampa bay waters. I learned some new tricks. we caught Redfish, red snapper, grouper, and jacks! hooked into something huge as well without boating it. Captain was quite pleasant and professional and didn’t talk too much. we caught one last fish right at the four hour mark and he stayed for a while longer just to make sure we didn’t miss out on any more good fish bite! very cool.

    Great accommodation

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 5 adults

    We booked with Reel Lucky after our depends trip was cancelled last minute due to weather. Only having one day that we had set aside for fishing on spring break, Capt Joe and His mate Chris were able to accommodate us on a near shore/ in shore trip. Conditions were far from ideal with wind gusts that made things difficult but we were still able to get on some fish and ended the day catching some sharks. Chris did a great job keeping 5 lines baited. We had a great time and I look forward to fishing with them again.

    Terrible weather but still a great trip!

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    The original trip we booked with another Charter got canceled because of weather so, at 10:00 the night before we were supposed to go out we were scrambling to try to find somebody that would take us despite the fact that it was going to be raining. Captain Joe had a charter already booked in the morning but he offered to take us out in the afternoon and do his best despite the weather forecast. He let us know up front that we may have to turn around and it might not work out but we really appreciated the effort. Not only did we not have to turn around we had a great time and caught lots of fish. Yes it was a bit cold and rainy but despite that they he and Chris stayed out the full time and made sure that we were able catch plenty of fish. We weren't able to go as far out as we would have liked to because of the weather so a lot of them were small but we did get plenty of Keepers too. We are already planning a trip back when the weather is better!
