I have never visited this place and yet they charged $38.51 on my debit card two days ago. No one picks up the phone nor is there an option to leave a message. I disputed the charge with my bank and will file a police report if this company does not contact me. BEWARE!!!

BEWARE!!! This company charged my card for charges that are unknown and which i did not authorize. This is very concerning. I have spent weeks calling their number and no one answers ever! They are either ignoring my calls or they do not provide any valid contact method for their services. I highly suggest payments to this business be made with serious caution. I am left to assume that this fishing service defrauded me of my money and ghosted me after charging me for unknown payments. I do not recommend this business whatsoever and i was definitely scammed! BEWARE!!!

Great Time! Took my family of four on a four hour fishing charter. Everyone in my family got to reel at least one in. Captain and crew were courteous, friendly, and totally focused on my family having fun. We will be back.

Took my family on this fishing charter after reading some great reviews on tripadvisor. We all had a spectacular time. After casting off at 7 AM, we cruised through the canals fronted by beautiful million-dollar homes and humongous yachts. The Captain pointed out several (Usher's, Ariana Grande's) on the way out and in. Once out in the water, the Captain and his effective boat crew (2 additional) quickly baited and cast out on trolling lines (multiple lines drug behind the boat. Almost immediately the fish started biting. All members of my 4 person family were able to reel in at least one fish. after the first 2 hours, they stopped biting. We changed over to shark bait and attempted to pull in a shark (unsuccessfully, though by no means the fault of the crew...apparently the best time to fish is in the winter). Bottom line, this is a great ship and crew to charter to have some wonderful family time. The Captain and crew were salty, but courteous...very safety conscious, but wanted us to get our hands dirty. My family will be talking about it for years. Cost was $500 for four solid hours of fishing. I gave a $100 tip. Some of the best money I have spent.

My family of six went fishing with Reel Appeal. We LOVED IT! We caught fish so I know that always makes it more enjoyable, however the crew was so much fun the day of fishing (or in this case catching) was amazing! Thank you Kunta and Reel Appeal!

The guy that gave this two stars in an idiot. Yes they are going to try and upsell you it is part of the overall experience. and the experience that our family of five (3 young boys under 10) had was outstanding. it was a spur of the moment idea to find a fishing charter and we happened to stumble upon the Real Appeal down at A-Dock. glad we did. the owner Ru and his first mate Jessica were on board today and Ru agreed to captain the boat and have his normal (and world famous) captain Kunta work with us on catching fish. we went out for three hours and caught shark, white fin tuna and bonita. could not be happier the stories from Kunta (almost too true to be true - and if they are true the guy has a best seller on his hands). my kids had a wonderful time and that is all that matters - this is an experience they will not forget. dont worry about the upsell you can always say no - and it is not a hard upsell. i am glad the offered the "upsell" for it was worth the money - mounting the shark and bonita for our 10-8-6 year old boys. go see the Real Appeal if you want a crazy fun fishing charter from some of the most experienced guys in Ft Lauderdale.A Cleveland Ohio family

I'm Tommy from Indiana and I recommend These guys to all who want to go charter fishing in Fort Lauderdale! We had a great time fighting 3 different sailfish finally catching the last one completely getting it in the boat and back to the dock with us as my trophy! I'll be back with my dad and little brother this spring to fish with Kunta and Jeff on their killer boat. It has everything and it will definitely impress my dad. Fish with these guys! They're the real deal!

We found Reel Appeal online and reserved an all day trip for a bachelor party fishing trip for our best bud Dan 2 days before his wedding on the beach. We all had a great time and we caught an assorted amount of different types of fish. The highlight was when all of us took turns fighting a huge Dusky shark. The trip was awesome! Captain and mate were unreal! Thanks Guys! I recommend these guys to all!

-AN AMAZING EXPIERENCE-The time my family and I had during this trip was awesome. Fishing is a sport that requires patience, which means nothing is guranteed. Although, when your in the hands of Kunta and Jeff, they will turn a fishing expierence into a day you will never forget. It was something an entire family could enjoy. My mom didn't even fish, and had a great day. The crew works incredibly hard, and no matter what the outcome, you'll learn a lot about fishing that most people wouldn't. They both have credientals that will blow your mind. They have fished all over the planet, and needless to say, they know exactly what they are doing and how they are doing it. I, myself (Andrea Price), caught a 7 foot bull shark, and my sister (Chelsea Price), a 44 inch cuda. We caught Mahi-Mahi and many other things, and the captain actually cooked it for us himself while we continued to fish. In lack of better words, it was an expierence that none of us will forget. Not only will we be deep sea fishing every year, but it will most definetly be with Reel Appeal Sport Fishing. My family thanks you guys.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE....TO anyone out there trying to FISH on a BOAT...PLEASE don't do it. THESE people were high on pain medication and God knows what else while on the boat...Examine their teeth, all of the people on the BOAT including THE Captain and Owners have rotten (drug Addict) teeth. They suit talk you into thinking you are on the right boat until you make the FINAL payment, and then all HELL breaks loose. ON THAT SAME DOCK THERE ARE OTHER BOATS I HAVE BEEN IN>>>PLEASE DO NOT GET RIPPED OFF LIKE ME.......
