Before you make the mistake of booking with another Captain or boat , CHOOSE THIS ONE! Do yourself a favor and choose the full day so you give him the opportunity to give you options. Captain Xavier did everything possible to get us on the fish. He had an agenda and if something wasn’t working he had another plan, tactic or location. Four keepers, some others on the boat and a bunch of great hook up’s that kept you working. Awesome dude, and crew will do everything if you need it or let you work and get involved if you want to. I’ll be 100% be back and you’d be very disappointed in your decision if you didn’t fish with this guy!

Xavier and Steve are both great guys.  We had a so much fun hanging out with them for the full day fishing adventure!  Great music playlist and threw in some Christmas music for my wife.  We trolled out to the south of Ft Lauderdale with artificial lures and caught a Bonita.  Then we bottom and top fished with live bait and caught 2 amber jacks, 2 king mackerel- one was 35” long, a yellow fin snapper, a blue runner and a 6’+ SAILFISH!!! What a fun fight that was, it jumped and danced all around the boat- a bucket list fish.  The big mackerel and the sailfish hit on the top, so Steve grabbed those poles as the fish ripped the line out and his expression and voice told the story- HUGE fish on!  Couldn’t have had a better time.  Choose Xavier and Steve at Reelit Charters if you want to go fishing and have a great time while you’re in the Ft Lauderdale area!

We had a wonderful time with captain Xavier and his helper Steve. The music, the ambience, the gear everything went as perfect as we could’ve hoped for. They were both very knowledgeable about the area and we both got to catch some big beautiful fish. He provided rain jackets, sunscreen, cold water and even snacks as well as expert help out on the water and back at the fillet station. They cleaned our fish for us and gaffed them like pros so that they didn’t get away. If I could do it all again I wouldn’t have changed a single thing. Thanks again for a memory that will undoubtedly last a lifetime. Our smiles in the pictures should say everything you need to know about our trip. I would 10/10 recommend booking with them again and rate the trip Five stars. Thanks again captain Xavier!! And thank you Steve ! I hope to fish with you both again someday soon!

My son and I did two charters with Captain Xavier, an inshore and offshore 4 hour trip. We caught a variety of different fish, including Barracuda, Mutton Snapper, Jacks, Spanish Mackerel while also battling through heavy winds and rain. Nonetheless, we had a great time and Captain Xavier was flexible, working hard to put us on fish. Highly recommend, would fish with him again!

Tarpon was the targeted species for the night and it’s safe to say captain X with the help of first mate Adam absolutely delivered. Can’t say enough good things about these guys. Not only are they enjoyable to be around the knowledge and passion they have for their craft goes above and beyond all expectations. I would give 10 stars if I could!
