Great day of fishing with Rich. My wife and I took our 2 teenage kids on a 4 hour trip. Rich worked super hard to find some fish on a slow day. We ended up catching our fill of blackfin tuna. Awesome! Highly recommend booking a charter with Rich.

Girls’ trip + Marco Island fishing = SUCCESS thanks to Captain Rich! We were beginners and he made us feel like pros. Great energy, super helpful, and we caught so many fish. 10/10 !! By the end, we were pleasantly exhausted—in the best way—from the sun and a full day on the water, and we couldn’t stop talking about how much fun we had. Captain Rich was professional, safe, and genuinely fun to be around. We’d absolutely book again—highly recommend!

Full-day trip in Key Largo and it was absolutely worth it. We went pretty far offshore, and the weather was chilly—we were definitely cold at times. Even so, the captain and mate worked hard the entire time—moving when needed, switching techniques, and keeping us fishing nonstop. We covered a lot of water and stayed focused on finding action. We ended up putting fish in the boat (mahi, barracuda, and most importantly, tuna!) and learned a ton along the way. Professional, friendly crew and a great experience—would book again.

We had a great time fishing, even if the fish didn’t quite get the memo. The captain and mate worked hard all day. We fished for eight hours, covered a lot of water, and worked the entire water column, from the surface down to about 400 feet. We tried just about everything, including trolling, jigging, sight casting, live bait, and deep drop setups. We did manage to land a few mahi, some barracuda, and a couple of small tuna. Some days are just like that, but the effort and attitude made the trip worthwhile. I’ll definitely be back to give it another shot.

Had an amazing trip with on the reel. First mate and captain were both extremely personal and professional. Had lots of bad luck and bad charters everywhere else in the keys but on the reel did an amazing job. We limited out on tuna and caught plenty of mahi and grouper to throw in the fridge. Richie and Wyatt know exactly what they are doing and we definitely will not be going back to anyone else. Thank you fellas!

My family has done four charters in Key Largo over the past few years, and all of them were a complete bust. On The Reel finally put us on productive spots, and we caught enough fish to eat for days.
