We caught lots of fish, tried different locations and techniques, great fun for everyone!Posted on Google Paul ReynoldsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Glenn took us out for 5days last spring and we caught a boat load of fish every day, he knew his job, all the spots to fish for specific fish and we maxed out. We have booked with him again this spring and cant wait for our 6 days of excellent fishing. And above all he's a real gent and cant do enough to make your trip the most enjoyable time. You wont be disappointed I can assure you.Posted on Google Daniel parentTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an awesome experience with Captain Glenn! He was very knowledgeable of the fishing areas and was able to maximize our time out on the water. It was a great family experience as he took time to explain the different types of fish we were targeting and gave us opportunities to customize the fishing plans as well. Highly, highly recommend!Posted on Google Rikki ParentTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great time with Reel Sharp Sportfishing! Captain Glenn was very accommodating and knew all the spots to explore. It was my 5 year old son’s first time fishing in the ocean and he took him under his wing explaining what each fish was and letting him sit up on the top deck with him to see. Awesome Captain who created a great experience for my whole family and highly recommend!Posted on Google Brian LarsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

If you’re looking for a great fishing charter, I highly recommend Reel Sharp Sportfishing. I’ve been fishing with Captain Glenn on and off for nearly 20 years and he consistently puts people on fish (caught my first sailfish with him many moons ago). He really knows the local waters and is always dialed in on what’s working — whether that means fishing inshore, heading offshore, trolling, or working structure in the shallows. The boat and gear are top notch, everything is well maintained, and he’s incredibly patient with everyone on board. Whether you’re an experienced angler or taking your first charter fishing trip, he makes the whole experience fun, educational, and productive. I’ve never been skunked on a boat with him. He knows the other Captains and stays on top of fishing report. He also knows good restaurants that will cook up your catch if you’re not local. Reel Sharp Sportfishing is a great choice.
