Meet Captain Troy Birchfield
Meet USCG Licensed Captain Troy Birchfield. Although born in Michigan, where he met his wife of 38 years, the couple relocated to Florida full time in the 1990s.
Capt. Troy opened his first guide service in Crystal River in 1996 running trips to Tampa and the Florida Keys, with his wife Suzanne working as his first mate.
Moving to Destin in 2016 the couple purchased the “Reel Chill” in 2016. At this time Suzanne obtained her Master Captain Credentials, and now works as a back up captain on extended voyages and loves to work the deck with children and those unexperienced anglers.
Meet Captain Suzanne Birchfield
A licensed Master Captain, Capt. Suzanne works as a back up captain on extended voyages and loves to work the deck with our guests – especially children and those less experienced anglers that require patience and assistance learning the ropes.
Capt. Suzanne says, “We enjoy teaching newcomers different fishing techniques and seeing their delighted faces when they catch their first fish and will stop at nothing to make sure you get what you want!”

Captain Troy, Suzanne, and Heather were absolutely amazing taking us out on the boat! It was my Fiancé’s and I’s first fishing charter and we will definitely be back! I learned even more about fishing! We caught so many fish and had a blast! The deckhand Marcus was super sweet and made sure we had a great time and stayed catching fish. It was the best day ever! We even got to see several dolphins jumping in our boat wake as we came back in as well so that was icing on the cake for me! I’ve been showing everyone our photos and pictures of our trip! Thank you guys soooo much!
