The crew was amazing. They worked very hard for us the entire trip. They didn’t hound us for tips. Crew Member mentioned it once and that was it. But how could we not tip when we caught such an amazing fish that was absolutely incredible and even better to eat! We had an Amazing time if you get even the slightest bit of motion sickness take some Dramamine the night before in and the morning of the trip and stay outside the boat don’t go inside the cabin 🤢

We hit the mother load!!

Sabrina_S, Mar 2026

Come prepared in case it rains and bring your own drinks and snacks. We had a great time and caught so many fish. The first three were bait fish and then we caught a barracuda, a black fin tuna, and a 51 inch king fish. The crew were more excited about that than we were but pretty great experience overall. Note, the boats could use a little TLC.

Disappointed

tom_k, Mar 2026

We spent most of our time fishing for bait fish just outside the entrance and did 3-4 laps around an anchored freighter for the rest and came back to port with a tub full of bait fish -we used two bait fish. Literally we spent 30 mints for game fish was that the goal !!? There were four of us. The other team was able to snag a nice size barracuda GREAT CATCH guys. However we all looked at each other and basically spent 4 hours just outside the harbor about 3 miles out trolling around, with appearance we were going to do more fishing with the lines out. The first mate is hustler the captain was steady at the helm

Do it you won’t regret it

Amber_R, Aug 2025

Honestly the best time it was a first time for us and they did not make us feel bad for not knowing they helped and my husband even had a great catch he does not stop raving about. Highly recommend

Not worth the money

Fnu_R, May 2025

The crew was very friendly and they let us ride on the top of the boat. But unfortunately the crew get any big catches and we ended up coming home just with a few rainbow runners as consolation. I've been on multiple fishing trips and I understand that sometimes these are unpredictable. But considering all this, this fishing trip was way overpriced for what it provided. I've got better fishes on a $75 fishing trip

Deep sea fishing Fort Lauderdale

Mlissa_T, Sep 2024

Beautiful day , great catch 🐠🐟🎣 fun experience those guys know there stuff ! First experience for me loved it !

I’ll pass.

Jeffrey_C, Jul 2024

If you do this, go with low expectations and hope for the best. In four hours we had one bite. It’s hard to split 3 minutes of reeling in a small fish five ways. Nothing against the guys who run this, just absolutely not worth $212 for four hours.

Not worth it!!!

Steve_T, Jun 2024

Not worth the price! Only went about 3 miles out, not enough poles per participant. Each participant took turns to reel a shark in. No attempt made to locate fish to keep. They did ask for 20% gratuity per man, which would have equaled 40% of total cost. They even ran out of gas and we had to be towed back in!!

Awesome Trip!

Pascal_W, Apr 2024

Awesome experience!! Its was a Monday so perfect.. We caught even a giant Sailfish! First Time i went to Sea to Fish. Doesn't get any better!!

Great fishing company

John_M, Mar 2024

Excellent fishing guides. We had a great time and caught fish. We’d recommend the tour company. Boat has a bathroom on board too

My first deep fishing bad experience

Jose_C, Mar 2024

First mate was obviously drunk making rude comments and messing up when preparing the fishing lines. Too many people on a shared boat because of missing personnel.

Monsta snapper :)

Andrew_G, Mar 2024

Great catch, memorable day....worth it. Crew was a positive, alway checking on each of the customers and kept everyone involved o. A shared charter....no need to question opportunities with unfamiliar people as the staff created a great atmosphere.

First mate Jack and...

Mindy_D, Feb 2024

First mate Jack and Captain Jack were amazing. We had fun and felt that we were in good hands. We caught some fish that we were able to take to a nearby restaurant to have cooked for us! That was cool.

Fun, exciting, and family friendly!

JohnH_I, Jun 2023

Awesome time! This was our first time deep sea fishing and our 11-year old son was excited. Our half-day charter was Reel Work with Captain Wally - a consummate professional and very friendly. We started out catching blue runners for bait then black fin tuna (which we brought to a local restaurant for dinner) before heading out further for some trolling. My son caught a 50-inch Amberjack that was nearly as big as his him! He worked so hard to reel in that fish on his own, and was extremely happy when we got it onboard. The four-hour trip is a great way to keep a child interested and hooked on fishing! I highly recommend Reel Work!

Solo fishing trip

Melissa_S, May 2023

Outstanding day on the water. I was a solo traveler but the remaining 5 guests and crew made me feel welcome. We had a sold group of fisher people. Things started off slowly but then…. WHAM the other female on the boat reeled in a 7 foot shark. It was my turn…. I pulled up a 4 foot Amberjack all by myself! The small group atmosphere, personal attention and fun crew made this an outstanding trip. I will be back!

Great experience!

Micah_D, May 2023

Mick and the Captain were great. Fun, entertaining and very knowledgeable. Didn't catch a ton of fish that day, but neither did the other boats that were out. I did get to catch a 7ft Golden dusky shark!

Caught a Sailfish!!

Chris_R, Apr 2023

Captain Will and First Mate Chris did a great job. We caught a sailfish toward the end of the trip and it was amazing. Had a great time!

"Out of the Blue" was out of this world!

Michael_K, Jan 2023

Having never fished in the ocean before my expectations were way more than exceeded by bringing in a trophy Baracuda. Captain Pauly and Mate Mick were totally responsible for making this fantastic experience possible. My fellow fishermen and fisher woman were a fun bunch and everyone caught fish. I will never forget my morning on "Out of the Blue."

Best fishing trip

Paige_L, Jul 2022

The best fishing experience we have had yet! The captain and deckhand were great and the experience was a great way to spend the morning. We took home some tuna and got to catch and release some really cool fish. Will definitely be coming back!

Amazing

Morrehea_H, Jul 2022

Guys trip was amazing we...

Angela_P, May 2022

Guys trip was amazing we had a blast and the fish was so good thank you great fishing charter. I would definitely recommend them again for future trips

Captain Mick and his crew...

Robert_M, May 2022

Captain Mick and his crew killed it. All 6 of us on the boat were able to catch a fish. We caught Mackerel, Bonita and a 7 foot golden dusky shark! I would recommend this trip to anyone and I will certainly be booking another in the future

Fun time!

Jordan_P, May 2022

Very cool and fun experience. We caught a lot of snapper and everyone who worked there was very nice. Would definitely recommend.

Filled the cooler with fish!

Warren_M, Mar 2022

Captain Jimmy did a great job getting us on the fish. Everyone had an opportunity to reel a fish in and my son loved the experience! Will engage them again when in Ft. Lauderdale.

Vomiting

Randy_V, Mar 2022

75% of the people on the boat got seasick. There was a small craft advisory that day. Waves were 5 feet. We came in after 45 minutes of throwing up. Tour operator would not refund. Out 300 dollars. The tour operator should have know not to go out.

Epic fishing experience

Steven_D, Mar 2022

This trip exceeded all my expectations. We caught a 93 inch lemon shark that was over 300 pounds. The crew were great super friendly and professional. A trip I’ll never forget I even tagged the shark and going to have it mounted.

Great catch, great fun !

Michelle_S, Feb 2022

Crew and captain were down to earth, professional and knew thier stuff. They made you feel like you had known them forever. Great day, great catch. Wonderful day of FUN !

It was a beautiful day...

Pamela_B, Feb 2022

It was a beautiful day out on the water unfortunately no fish were biting. I paid a lot of money for a 4-Hour boat ride and the captain just drove around the same waters trying to catch a fish. I was hoping the captain would have gone farther out but he stayed in the same Waters. Obviously it wasn't the captain's fault but it really was a waste of money since no fish were caught.

Waste of time and money

Steve_K, Jan 2022

There was a small craft advisory and we still went out. Because of winds we didn’t go into deep enough water. A piece of boat fell off. Waste of time and money. No fish. One Shark.

Awesome Experience

Ryan_K, Jan 2022

My wife and I had a great time. The crew is a lot of fun and very knowledgeable about the waters. We caught two sharks the day we went out. I definitely recommend and would happily go again!

A Lemon shark named Betty White

Bryan_G, Jan 2022

A lot of skill in this two man crew! Mick was amazing to watch working all the lines like he could do it in his sleep. Entertaining just to watch. But we got a lot more than that!! Caught an 8ft Lemon shark!! Cool as hell. Advice to others...layer up and take your Dramamine. Say hi to Mick for us and tip these guys. They work for it.
