Fishing Trip – Marlin/Tuna

Great experience

VERIFIED

Every part of this trip was a fantastic experience facilitated by Pedro and his mate Carlos; on my first time fishing for giant blue fin. They were both great hosts, sharing knowledge and stories and making extra effort to ensure my 7yr old son enjoyed the day, was kept safe and learnt the ways. We can't wait to go again. Think we'll try for the marlin and mahi mahi next time!

Full Day Trip – Marlin / Bluefin

I would fish with them again

VERIFIED

Captain Pedro tried his best to put me on marlin but the fish were not eating that day. I did catch some mahi and Skip jacks but even that action was slow. The water temperature wasn't ideal and the solunar table was not good so it was just one of those days when the fish were not active. I'm confident that if they were eating we would have put them in the boat. This man knows his stuff and if I ever came back to Portugal I would definitely go out with him again. Top notch boat and top notch equipment too.
