8 Hour Trip
We had a really special time on the Hot Reel for our first time fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. The crew was kind, friendly and helpful. They showed us all that we needed to know, had everything set up for us and knew the best spots to fish. Prepare for a full day of sun exposure and a bit of a physical challenge that is worth it. We couldn’t have asked for a more adventurous day. The highlight of our trip was wrangling a couple of massive sharks. We couldn’t take them home with us, but that was just fine - we have more than enough fish to fry up for dinner and weeks to come. Thank you for giving my boyfriend and I such a memorable experience that we surely will never forget.

Red Snapper Special (AM)
We started the trip with Brandon and Jo at the dock. They were friendly and welcoming, showed us the safety features and facilities on the boat, and off we went. Upon request the played music for us, and Capt. Brandon showed us his fancy yodeling. LOL! Our trip out was about 1.15 hours out, and the spots were solid offering up to 15 pound big red snapper! We caught our limit, plus one shark. My fiancé was a newbie so she didn’t really know how to fish and the guys were very patient with her teaching her their best tricks. I can’t remember the trip home because we fell asleep. The got our catch ready and hauled them to the monger for us. We can’t wait to go back. FIVE STARS!

12 Hour Trip
We booked a 12 hour fishing trip to make sure we had plenty of time to catch plenty of fish. Got started getting some huge Snappers, then we moved into fishing for king fish which most of them happened to be massive as well and then we moved on into trolling for bigger fish. We caught a almost 100lbs 6 foot long Wahoo and we not the Capitan could believe how large this thing was. Not only we had a fishing trip to remember for the rest of hour lives we caught shy of 400lbs of fish in total. We are already planning our next trip with PortA Sportfishing!
