What People Say

5-Star Reviews

98% recommended on Facebook. Don't take our word for it.

Best fishing trip we've ever been on. Captain Kevin put us right on the fish — limited out on red snapper before noon. Already booked our next trip.

Mike T.Offshore Charter

Took our kids (8 and 11) on the kids trip and they had a blast. Captain JP was so patient and made sure everyone caught something. Memories for a lifetime.

Sarah & JamesFamily Trip

Hooked into a 180lb bluefin on a winter trip. The crew was professional, the boat was immaculate, and the tackle was top-notch. This is a first-class operation.

Chris D.Gulf Stream

Stopped in for some king rigs and ended up spending an hour talking fishing with the guys behind the counter. Best tackle shop on the Brunswick coast, hands down.

Tommy R.Tackle Shop

Captain Will took us nearshore and we caught kings, Spanish, and a massive cobia. He knew exactly where to go. Can't recommend enough.

We've fished all over the east coast and Rigged & Ready is one of the best. Great boats, great captains, and they actually care about your experience.

Dave & LindaFull Day Offshore

Finally a real tackle shop in the area. They carry Penn, Shimano, Grundéns — all the good stuff. And the staff actually knows what they're talking about.

Marcus W.Tackle Shop

Our 6-year-old caught her first fish! The whole crew cheered. We've been back three times now and it never disappoints.

The Patterson FamilyKids Trip

Hit the nearshore wrecks with Captain JP and absolutely crushed the king mackerel. Boat was dialed in, tackle was perfect. Top 10 shop for a reason.
