Ratings & Reviews Summary




January 29, 2026
My 10-year-old son and I had a great fishing trip with Get Reel. Captain Colton was generous, patient, and happy to share his knowledge throughout the day. The bite wasn’t easy, but he stayed focused, adjusted techniques, and moved us to different spots until we were on fish. We ended up catching some solid fish and had a lot of fun along the way. This was our first trip with Get Reel, and it definitely won’t be our last. Thanks again for a memorable day on the water.
January 29, 2026
We went out today with Captain Roli, and it was an awesome trip—especially since it was my nephew’s first time on a boat. We had a great time, and my 11-year-old nephew landed a big blackfin tuna, which made the day even more special. We also caught a bonita and a couple of snapper. What really stood out was how quickly we got to fishing. We had lines in the water within about 15 minutes of leaving the dock, which meant more time actually fishing than on any other charter I’ve been on. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend them. Thanks so much to the whole crew for a great experience.
January 29, 2026
Colton and Hector went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. We caught barracuda and bonitas, and the action kept everyone engaged the whole trip. We had our two boys with us, and they were fantastic with them—patient, helpful, and always willing to explain and guide. Both were professional, knowledgeable, and clearly enjoy what they do. If you’re thinking about booking a charter, these guys should be at the top of your list. We’ll definitely remember this trip.
January 29, 2026
Even with the weather and sea conditions working against us, the captain put us in the right position to catch a trophy fish we’ll never forget. When we hooked into something big on a light spinning setup with 25-lb line, the captain and mate stayed calm and patient, guiding us through the fight. After about 30 minutes, we successfully landed and photographed an incredible sailfish. In our wildest expectations, we never thought we’d hook into—let alone land—a fish of that caliber, especially at this price point. It was an unforgettable experience, and we’ll absolutely be booking again. I’d highly recommend this crew to anyone looking for a memorable and affordable fishing trip.
January 29, 2026
We had a great experience with Get Reel Fishing Charters from start to finish. Everything was smooth, professional, and genuinely fun. Our captain, Colton, was excellent—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly committed to making the trip a success. He put us on the fish and kept everyone engaged the entire time. We caught a bonita, a barracuda, and even a kingfish, which made for an awesome day on the water. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and Colton went the extra mile to make sure everyone felt taken care of and part of the action. We couldn’t have asked for a better trip.
January 29, 2026
We had a great trip with Colton. He knew exactly where to take us to find fish, and when the bite slowed, he wasn’t afraid to move and try new areas. Colton was friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to fish with. I’d recommend him to anglers of any age.
