Very pleasantly surprised! The weather and the time of year here in Clearwater (I live here) are not the best for a half day trip. Tucker put us on fish (including a number of grouper!) all morning. A couple members of our party were not too experienced in saltwater and Deanna was great with them and still kept everyone in the water. A very well spent morning! I came home with a 13# Gag and several Porgy and "Grey Snapper". I'll definitely fish with Reel Deal again!

We booked the 5hr trip and had a great time! We caught so many fish and had a blast doing it! The crew worked very hard at making sure we caught as many fish as possible. They were were always making sure we were taken care of. Once back at the dock they cleaned our fish and got it bagged for us!

Captain Tucker and Deanne treated us to an incredible day of fishing. They were patient with our novice group including a first timer teaching us the basics while being very positive and encouraging. We caught keeper gag groupers and many grunts and a number of catch and release fish including sharks, red grouper, puffer fish and smaller gag groupers. Captain Tucker knew where to go to get the fish. Deanne has a fabulous attitude and her enthusiasm to make our day the best it could be was contagious.

This was the best fishing trip we have ever done!! Tucker and Deanna were incredible, and we had the best time with them. The entire process was so smooth, and we caught SOOO many fish. I already want to go again. Thank you Tucker and Deanna!!

We had Captain Steve and Jack and they were awesome! They took us to all their favorite spots. The boat was extremely clean and well kept. The boys even got a little boat nap on the way in because they have places to sleep and a comfortable bean bag. We caught several mackerel and bonita which was perfect for us especially for the boys to reel in. Steve and Jack were very knowledgable and they made our first trip out with our kids a great experience and wanting to spend more time out in the water. Highly recommend this company for cleanliness, professionalism, ease of booking and great if you want to take kids. If you don't want to take kids would also recommend as you can have a full day our there with a different vibe and they will cater to that.

Reel deal is the reaaaaal deal! We caught well over 100 fish in just a 4 hour morning trip. It wasn’t much “fishing” as it was “catching” if you know what I mean. Captain Tucker and first mate Jack were super chill and great fishermen. Would definitely do it again!

My sons and I spent the day with Tucker & Taco of Reel Deal Sportfishing and had an absolute blast! These guys really know what they are doing and will make sure your trip is enjoyable. This is our 4th time going on a charter and Tucker is one of the best! He will get you on fish, the boat is spotless and they are fun and will make sure you have the best experience possible.

What an Awesome Trip. Did the Am float with Captain Tucker and Mate Jack. We had six fishermen with no real deep sea fishing experience. Jack handled all of our needs very well ! And we killed it. I HIGHLY recommend these guys !
Captain Tucker had us in fish the whole Trip

We did a 1/2 day trip. Caught a huge amount of grey snapper, porgy, and grouper. Also caught some other exotic looking fish that we released - unique and fun to catch.
Captain Tucker and Deanna were great! I am not an experienced fisherwoman and they were very helpful and patient. My husband has much more fishing experience. They would help as little or as much as we wanted. I liked having hooks baited (bait was supplied) and my fish taken off hook. So fun and no worries of getting jabbed with a fish fin. They cleaned our fish and bagged them for us and also took pictures of our group and catch. We grilled our fresh grouper when we got home and it was delicious.
Fantastic experience, highly recommend.

Came down to for a spontaneous trip to Clearwater with my two sons and we were just talking about possible activities for tomorrow. My youngest (he's 9 years old) really wants to go fishing tomorrow. Any chance you have a charter booked and have availability for 3 (me and my 9 & 12 year old boys)?? Thought we'd ask... just in case.
