About ReelTime
Three decades on the Gulf Coast. Three thousand trips. One mission: give every angler the fishing trip of a lifetime.
Our Story
Captain Dave Morrison founded ReelTime Fishing Charters in 1994 with one boat, a passion for fishing, and a vision to share the incredible Gulf Coast fishery with anglers from around the world. What started as a one-man operation out of Destin Harbor has grown into the premier charter fleet on the Emerald Coast.
Today, ReelTime operates three fully equipped vessels and a team of USCG-licensed captains who know these waters like the back of their hand. Whether it's trolling the deep blue for marlin, stalking redfish on the flats, or teaching a 7-year-old how to cast their first line — we treat every trip like it's the most important one we've ever run.
We're not just a charter company. We're a family of anglers dedicated to conservation, sustainable fishing practices, and passing on the love of the water to the next generation.
