Jack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Jason consistently delivers exceptional fishing results, with customers landing impressive catches like 38-inch red snappers weighing over 26 pounds, along with grouper, beeliners, lane snappers, triggers, and Spanish mackerel. Multiple families report limiting out on their targeted species, with Jason's expertise shining through as he adapts to conditions—staying out later when fish are stubborn and putting guests on consistent action throughout six-hour trips. Jason and his wife Jennifer create a welcoming atmosphere that makes everyone feel at home on their spotless boat. They excel with first-time saltwater anglers and kids, taking time to explain everything clearly and ensuring young guests feel confident and comfortable. Customers consistently mention their professionalism, knowledge, and hospitality, with many families booking return trips after memorable experiences that include wildlife sightings of dolphins and manatees.

Jason and Jennifer were amazing!!! My wife daughter and I set out to catch Vermilion Snapper and Red Grouper to keep and cook. Thats exactly what we got and more. Caught 2 red grouper. One had to be thrown back was under the 20inch regulation. The other was 20 inches. At least 10 trigger fish were caught, we kept one. The Vermilion Snapper were HITTING but were under the regulation. The wife caught some real exotic fish that Captain Jason has never seen. 2 hrs into the 4hr trip our 12 year old daughter got sea sick which stopped the fishing. But didnt stop the fun Captain Jason ane Jennifer spotted dolphins swimming near shore and our fishing trip turned into a dolphin tour. Great experience. The customer service, fishing, boat and experience were 5 stars. Will definitely be back during Red Snapper Season.

We very much appreciated our time with Reel Steel Charters. Captain's communication and guidance before departure was excellent. Boat was great. And Jason and Jennifer were very pleasant--the kind of folks who are great to fish with and would be great to hang out with off the water. We caught several fish and were grateful for Capt. Jason accommodating our needs. Would definitely fish with again!

Me and my two boys had never been fishing before, and the crew made everything easy. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. We caught a lot of fish and had a great time. If you’re new to being on the water, I’d recommend taking seasickness medicine just in case.

We got the best of both worlds—catching fish from the moment we hit the water and watching dolphins along the way.

We booked a 6-hour deep sea trip with Reel Steel, and we’re so glad we did! Our kids (9 and 5) had an amazing time. Jason and Jennifer were incredibly patient and helpful, making sure the kids were able to catch fish and enjoy every moment. We’ll definitely book again!

I’ve taken four other charters over the years, and none of them compare to the incredible experience my family and I had with Reel Steel Charters. We landed a 38-inch, 26.7 lb red snapper, a 29-inch, 19.4 lb red snapper, along with plenty of other species. If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable fishing trip, this is the charter for you. Thank you, Reel Steel Charters!

Jason and his wife were fantastic hosts and really know their stuff. We left early and stayed out later than planned since the fish were a bit stubborn, but it paid off—we came back with plenty! We’ll definitely book with them again.

We gave them late notice after another charter canceled, and they still fit us in when they didn’t have to. Overall, a great experience!

Great trip! We caught some nice fish and even hooked a few that were too big for us to bring in, but the challenge made it even more fun. Our kids had an amazing time. The captain and his wife made us feel appreciated and treated us with outstanding care.
