Description

Welcome to The Reward Fleet, Miami’s Premier fishing attraction! Our vessels are US Coast Guard-inspected to safely conduct offshore voyages with large groups of passengers. Our 70-foot vessel "Another Reward" has an air-conditioned cabin, men's and women's restrooms, with full outdoor seating and walk around deck for your comfort. Enjoy seeing Miami from a different perspective as we head out to sea in search of a variety of species – snappers and groupers, amberjack and kingfish, with sailfish, tuna, and shark are a possibility. At times we’ll anchor and chum, sometimes we’ll drift while live-baiting, using dead bait, or jigging. We are the ONLY party fishing vessel that offers live bait, when available, at an additional charge of $20 per person, one per group. Of course, we cannot guarantee great catching. However, our crew will happily teach you how to use the equipment, untangle your lines, bait your hooks, and answer any questions you may have in Spanish and English.

The helper guy Nick talks so negatively. He kept saying I can’t guarantee fish it’s called fishing. He talks entirely too much, even told us that he is probation and just that wasn’t necessarily relevant to the fishing trip.

This was a very fun experience for me. I booked this trip for me and my dad on my birthday June 9th. We had a good time went out deep and caught some fish. But the instructors and ride was very mesmerizing. Thanks would definitely book again.

Operator response

Thank you for the kind review. We will share it with the crew! Captain Wayne

One of the guides with long hair was extremely rude to eveyone and screaming at people. No warning to bring your own drinks and we were extremely thirsty.

Operator response

Not a great experience we were hoping for

We received terrible directions to the meeting point, which was only an address of a huge mall. When we could not find the spot, I called the provided number and the woman who answers the phone was very rude. Then before w even stepped one on the boat (family of 6) the guide was demanding an upfront gratuity of $70!!! His reasoning for wanting an upfront gratuity was because “they always got stiffed”. No welcomed. No great to have you. Just we want your money. I understand the importance of tipping and we are good tippers for good service But never should it be demanded up front. And then there is an additional $20 fee for live fish that is no where advertised. We did have fun amongst ourselves. We did catch a few fish. There was one great and energetic female deck hand. I wish I would have booked with a different company.

Operator response

Thank you for your honest review. You have valid concerns that will be addressed immediately with the staff involved. There are no excuses for any negative attitudes toward our customers! I'm sorry you had that experience. Regarding tipping, we have a policy of a required gratuity of 5 passengers or more. I apologize if this wasn't apparent in the booking process. I am updating this now, thank you. Tips are never expected otherwise but should be earned. Regarding the live bait fee. We never know when it's available and is only offered when it is available. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused for you and your party. Captain Wayne OWNER

Too much talk of tips.

My son and I were in Miami for summer vacation. We wanted to try a deep sea fishing excursion. The captain was very descriptive of what to expect. The one crew member made it abundantly clear that he only got paid through tips and that his attention would be focused on them. He mentioned tips one too many times, IMO. Pay the crew so each participant doesn’t feel pressured to tip. We paid for the trip. I didn’t expect preferential treatment, but the continual conversation was tiring and disappointing.

Operator response

Thank you for your honest review, the issues you mention are not reflective of our policy! Do you know the name of the crewmember? What was the date and time of your trip? I assure you, our crew are paid for their services. Tipping is and should be never mentioned beyond the captain saying if the crew did a great job, tipping is appreciated. Thank you again for your review, it will help us be better.

Sea fishing

You need to like sea fishing. Its not for casual tourists. Far too many people on the boat on the one side. Constantly lines getting tangled. Staff great though

Operator response

Thank you for your honest review. Because we are open to the general public in an attempt to provide an affordable experience for all, at times we get very busy. Sometimes we can anchor the boat and fish all the way around, but have to fish only one side when conditions dictate. Thank you for mentioning our crew's efforts.

Fishing trip

We had an absolutely fantastic fishing trip from start to finish! The captain and crew were knowledgeable, professional, and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable throughout the day. They knew exactly where to find the fish and were always willing to help, whether it was baiting hooks, offering fishing tips, or sharing local knowledge.
