They were prepared with a short instructional experience to teach us how to fish, with lots of good guidance for the new fisherman. But best of all, they were very accommodating when we had had enough, and brought us back to shore when our tummies were a bit seasick. Michael prepared and catch so that we could take it to a local restaurant for dinner, and both taught us a great deal about the local fishing and islands experience. Thanks to them, we had a great fishing day, and next time we come to visit we will certainly try them again. I highly recommend them especially if you would like a more intimate and private experience.

The fishing is superb, and VERY reasonably priced. For our honeymoon we went out SHARK fishing (he will take you out for whatever type of fishing you want though) Caught a ton! At least a dozen maybe more! If you want to see a genuine smile and excitement on someone's face put them on a shark in Guy's boat. Just an absolute blast. We have been doing charters in Marco a few times and they have always been more money and less fun than with Guy. We will NEVER go out with anyone else. Guy is just too fun to hang out with let alone fish with. Do yourself a favor and go fishing with Adventure fishing!

Shelling in the Ten Thousand Islands has been a bucket list item for years, so when I finally…read morecarved out a time that I could spend a weekend here, I was so excited. I ended up booking two four hour excursions with two different companies - one on a Saturday and one on Sunday. I would be curious what the difference would be. Of the two, Reel Kind was the more "low key" version and a bit more disorganized. A four hour tour is $130 per person + gratuity (paid in cash to the captain). Compared to my other experience, I kinda felt like we just got dropped off and told to come back "when you're done." It's about a 15-20 minute ride out each way to some of the various islands / mangrove islets. The boats are small, captains only carry licenses that allow them 6 passengers so that's a plus - no huge groups. Timing is based on low tide schedules so every day will be a different time. This particular day we went to Kice and Dickmans. Kice was great shelling; after about 1.5 hrs, most of us were "done" (it was brutally hot) and we just all kinda of made our own way back to the boat. Then once everybody showed up, we were taken over to the next spot a few minutes away. Dickmans ended up being a bust. Overall, a decent basic experience if you just want to be taken back and forth. Our captain was very nice, but not very informative or helpful.

Spent most of our trip fishing about 5 Miles out on a man made reef. We caught some Spanish Mackerel, blue runners, sheeps head, and even a puffer fish. One of the best parts of the trip was the 1 hour plus fight with a Goliath Grouper my buddy had. He didn't bring it in, but the fight was intense and long before the line broke. Captain Glen even took a detour on the way back in to get a phot in front of the JW Marriot where my buddy got married that weekend. We also spent some time getting up close to some dolphins feeding along the sea wall. I would recommend Captain Glen to anyone and will def book him in advance of our next visit!
