Meet the Captain

Captain Jessica is a lifelong boater and angler with over six years of experience captaining fishing charters on Florida’s Gulf Coast. She has spent her entire life on the water, building real hands-on experience through fishing, vessel operation, navigation, and offshore trip planning in a wide range of conditions.

She is a founder, owner, and operator of multiple on-the-water businesses, including Reel Call Sportfishing and Reel Blonde Charters, with a strong reputation for professionalism, safety, and delivering well-run offshore experiences. Her approach is calm, capable, and detail-oriented, qualities that matter offshore where conditions and decisions can change quickly.

In addition to running fishing charters, Jessica is also the founder of Helm and Heel, a women-focused boating education company created to teach women how to confidently and safely operate their own vessels. Through private, real-world instruction, Helm and Heel empowers women to dock, navigate, and run their boats with confidence and competence.

That same teaching mindset carries over into every charter. Whether guests are brand new to offshore fishing or highly experienced anglers, trips are tailored to match skill level, comfort, and goals for the day. Safety, preparation, and clear communication are always the priority.

Jessica takes pride in running a true offshore operation the right way. No rushing, no shortcuts, and no cutting corners. Just a well-run boat, smart decision-making, and a genuine love for life on the water.
