Captain Christian Rec is the local expert behind The Program Sportfishing Charters, and his roots run deep in Florida’s fishing culture. Born and raised in the Sunshine State, he spent his early years learning the tides, fish patterns, and marine life unique to this part of the coast. His firsthand knowledge of Lantana’s offshore waters and inshore channels grew into a lifelong pursuit, turning a personal passion into a professional calling. That foundation gives him the ability to guide others with confidence, clarity, and care—whether it’s a first-time guest or a returning angler.
What makes Captain Christian stand out is more than just his experience—it’s the way he connects with people on the water. Guests often describe him as patient, friendly, and quietly skilled, with a natural ability to read the conditions and adapt throughout the day. He’s known for creating a laid-back, low-pressure environment while still providing expert coaching and local insight. Every trip is thoughtfully paced and tailored to the group’s goals, making it easy to relax and enjoy the experience no matter your background or skill level.
His focus on preparation and safety is something guests truly value. Captain Christian is fully licensed and runs every trip with careful planning—checking tides, tracking weather patterns, and setting up gear that suits the target species and the day’s conditions. He takes pride in offering not just a great fishing day, but a smooth, well-organized outing from start to finish. For families, individuals, and experienced crews alike, it’s clear that you're fishing with someone who takes your time on the water seriously.
