Operating along the near and inshore waterways of Florida's 'big bend', Reel Fishing Charters provides a wide range of fishing opportunities. With experienced Captain Brent Woodard as your guide, you can be assured of catching the region's prized fish. Capt. Brent's impressive 10 years of experience and success in tournaments along the north-west coast of Florida, such as the Red Fish Series, speaks for itself.

Trips are conducted on a 2018-renovated 20' California Skiff powered by a 115 HP Mercury engine. Equipped with a fishfinder and wireless trolling motor, this boat is perfect for drifting along backwaters and nearshores, allowing you to locate the best fishing spots and approach the fish quietly before casting and reeling them in.

Reel Fishing Charters welcomes almost all types of fishing techniques, including drift fishing, trolling, jigging, and spinning, with both light and heavy tackle available. Captain Brent is happy to assist less-experienced anglers in mastering any of these techniques. Live bait is prepared before the trip at no extra cost, ensuring you have the greatest chance of success. Additionally, any fish you wish to take home can be cleaned and prepared on board.

The waters in this area are home to a variety of fish, ranging from tasty flounder to exciting game fish like Snook. Reel Fishing Charters offers a fun-filled day for the whole family, with the option to even go snorkeling for scallops!
