“Martin put us on the fish very quickly. Had 2 Mahi on board within 2 hours and missed one. Great boat, great crew and had a great day out on the water. Will definitely be back and 100% recommend!!”
“Fishing was fun! Went out about 5-10 miles was able to get on some barracudas. We also caught a small trigger fish and a amber jack. Private charter was decently priced and the crew is very professional and very nice. Boat was comfy too, plenty of room and seats along with a bathroom. They also filleted our fish to bring back to our hotel so we could cook it”
“We had an amazing day of fishing with the captain and the first mate on the boat my baby, my wife and I had sore arms after the day of catching a lot of fish. It would've been nice if we caught more than just barracuda but we still had an amazing trip fishing. Those things fight like crazy. I wish we would have been able to eat some of our catch as we have been able to do with other charters in the past. However, it seems like that was not an option with this charter. We were also promised, either an extra hour or ceviche neither of which we received but they did supply some coronas to us, which was very nice of them. We still had a great time and it's very clear that the captain and the first mate know the area and fishing very well.”
