  I have chartered dozens of times. While we caught fish and I give kudos to the mates Ryan and Matt (those guys really worked hard and were fun), the boat... read more is a stinking mess. They advertise an ac cabin but there is no place to sit because the gear is just scattered all over the place. The boat is dirty and the head is unacceptable. Rob the captain is a grouch and asked for a bigger tip after I gave him $300. I gave him the $500 he wanted so the mates would get more. Not coming back.

  Definitely would recommend. Captain Wally first lead us to some King Mackerel where we caught 7, also caught a handful of Bonito, a Mutton snapper, yellow snapper and the real... read more highlight was 2 Mahi. First Mate Matt was running the whole day keeping our hooks baited and in the water.

We bottom jigged after trolling and picked up a handful snapper for the dinner table. Nice boat, nice captain and crew that are fun to hang with. Would recommend.

  We did a morning half day trip. I had good conversation with both the Captain & Mate. The Mate is very hard working and very knowledgeable and the Captain keep... read more us on the fish. We loaded the cooler with King Fish and caught a few other the species too small to keep. The boat is not the best looking in the Fleet, but it does catch fish! As a matter of fact of all the boats that did half day trips this day we were the only one that came in with fish. Will fish them again. Hopefully soon.

  Captain and crew knowledgeable of local fish on morning charter caught king fish and snapper.5stars on locating and keeping us on top of the fish

  Me and my wife went on a charter with these guys and had an absolute blast. You can just sit back and relax and wait to reel the fish in... read more or you can learn from any one of their well knowledged staff. I look forward to going out with Ryan "Fishman" Coyner and Captain Chris again

  We only had time for 1/2 day charter. Wally was great and organized. We left on time and everyone caught a fish from King's to Barracuda to Mahi. 5 of... read more us went and it was a very comfortable boat to fish from.

  Captain Wally and his mate Branden were extremely nice! Very helpful! Love the small group, slot of fun!

  We went out with Capt. Alex and Dave Jackson and what a great day. We almost cancelled due to thunderstorms in the area, boy am we glad we didn't. ... read more I have been on many charters and have never seen a 1st mate more prepared and working the deck so hard. Hit a grand slam with tuna, kingfish, Mahi and a 7' Sailfish. Also caught barracuda and hooked a hammerhead shark. We trolled and kite fished. The seas were a bit rough but what a great day!

  Me my wife and my 14 year old daughter booked with Reel Work Sport fishing in June 2016. Captain Wally and mate Donald were amazing! First my daughter saw a... read more coconut in a tree and Donald got it for her. Then we boarded the boat. We caught our bait which was a lot of fun. We got to use light tackle and catch the bait our self. Then we trolled for awhile. We caught 4 bonitos, and 4 1/2 tunas (a porpoise ate one tuna and left the head.) Then we then went kite fishing (our first time kite fishing.) My daughter caught a 7 ft. 150 lb. hammer head shark! It was the highlight of the day. Donald helped keep my daughter calm while she reeled in the shark. Then Captain Wally came down from the bridge to help Donald hold the shark so we could take pictures. We managed to catch 9 1/2 fish in 6 hrs. When we docked Captain Wally cleaned our fish while Donald helped us get our things off the boat. Then Donald gave my daughter the hook she caught the shark with. Overall great time!

  Having fished for over 50 years and wanting to catch some big game I thought I would give offshore charter a whirl. I booked a shared 4 hour and a... read more private 6 hour charter with Reel Works,expensive yes but I needed to try it out. Previously I have fished at the Keys both backwater and reef fishing and thoroughly enjoyed the variety. Captain Wally and his boat hands were experienced people who knew their stuff and worked at finding the fish and in this they were quite successful. Over the two trips I had Wahoo, Kingfish,Black Fin Tuna and some small stuff. The hoped for Sailfish failed to make an appearance but that's fishing for you and certainly not the fault of the boat or the crew. However the overriding factor to my mind was boredom. Chugging up and down with a variety of lures out the back of the boat was not fishing, if this is your thing then go for it and Reel Work is as good as any. But if you prefer to bait your own hooks, cast you line, hook and play your own fish then save your money.

  Our "midwest" family of 6 were headed to Southern Florida for an International family reunion and decided to take in a never before deep sea fishing trip. Locating the... read more Reel Work Sport Fishing Charter on line and having a terrific visit with "Captain Wally" we decided to reserve a spot. What a FABULOUS experience! The crew made us feel right at ease and were extremely pleasant and professional. Each of us, even down to my 12 year old, were able to work on the reels. A local charity fishing tournament was being held a few blocks from Wally's slip so we raced to weigh our catch and actually WON THE TOURNAMENT!! (well one minute after the official weigt in...but still the biggest fish there). What a great trip!! Will tell all my Team National friends and family!

  Our family really enjoyed our trip out. It was a great time for all of us - we will definitely be repeat customers.
