REEL DEAL II - Real Deal Sportfishing

The REEL DEAL II

The REEL DEAL II is a 34′ Crusader sportfishing boat powered by a 450 horse-powered Cummins diesel engine. The Reel Deal II is equipped with top-of-the-line Raymarine fish-finder and radar and all US Coast Guard required safety equipment. This clean and comfortable boat has a Northern Lights generator and in the enclosed cabin there is a bathroom and plenty of seating! The back deck has a live bait well and two fish fighting chairs. Your charter will include everything you need for a day of fishing – all licensing, bait, tackle, rods, and reels. We provide ice, coolers, and fish cleaning. All you need to bring with you is your personal food and drink (alcohol okay). The REEL DEAL II is located at Clearwater Municipal Marina in Slip #32 (by the roundabout and Pier 60) in Clearwater Beach, Florida!

The CAPTAIN

Captain Steve Hunsucker was born in Painesville, Ohio in 1979. He moved with his family all around the Southeastern United States during his childhood. An avid freshwater angler as a kid, his mom always knew where he was headed after school with a fishing pole in hand. Steve got the saltwater bug when he moved to Indian Rocks Beach, Florida in 1993. He has spent countless hours fishing both inshore waterways and offshore in the Gulf of Mexico – where his passion now lies. Steve lives in Largo, Florida with his family. He has been a mate and captain on deep sea charters out of Clearwater Beach since 2007 and made his dream of owning his own vessel a reality in 2015 when he bought the REEL DEAL. Along with his wife Heather, Capt. Steve owns and operates Reel Deal Sportfishing and he captains the newest vessel REEL DEAL II.

Wow, what an adventure! Captain Tucker was amazing!!!! He made our trip a memorable one. His experience and personality made the difference. Everyone in our group enjoyed ourselves and felt we had the attention we needed to ensure we all … More caught something and had a blast doing it! If they weren’t biting, he was on to the next spot where the fish were biting! We can’t say enough about the experience we had and how wonderful Captain Tucker made our trip for us! We will definitely be back!!

I know what you’re thinking, and you’re wrong. This is not just another charter. This, my friends, must be experienced to be believed. Not only were Tucker and Deanna an absolute delight to spend the day with, they also helped us haul in … More some serious fish. The boats, equipment, and language were impeccably clean (which is saying something). It really was a great trip and I would highly recommend them for your next event or family day out. No matter what, you’ll return with a story and a smile. I’m not going to tell you some crazy story about how we caught the largest mackerel ever recorded, but I’m not saying we didn’t. Do with that what you will.

I took my kids (including my 8 yr old daughter) on a 3/4 day trip this week. We had a blast! We were worried about the weather at first but Capt Steve put our minds at ease. He definitely put us on the fish and Zach,the mate, did an … More outstanding job of keeping us fishing. This is my second trip with Reel Deal and it definitely won't be my last. Well done

Reel Deal knows where the fish are! We had a blast and learned a lot in just our half day charter. Our only regret was not booking the full day because the fish never stopped biting! Thank you Capt. Tucker & Deanna, yall were great … More guides!We highly recommend anyone looking to go fishing in the Tampa/Clearwater area to book with Reel Deal! Their location is very very convenient, the boat was well maintained compared to others we saw. The crew was fun, informative and helpful with everything. Worth every dollar!
