Whether you're looking for serious angling action or family fun, join in and start your fishing adventure!

You'll start your trip on a restored 35' Bertram offshore sport fishing boat that can sit up to 6 anglers. Its powerful twin Caterpillar 450 HP engines and modern navigation technology guarantee you a safe and quick trip to the fish.

You're free to bring kids along with you, and you can choose whether to keep your catch or release it back to the water.

The captain will cover you for all the rods, reels, tackle, as well as live bait. For the trip, you'll need to bring your fishing licenses, food, and drinks.

Super awesome trip
12 Hour Trip on June 23, 20265 adults

Captain Emilio and his deck hand AJ were great!!! Im sorry i cant remember the deck hand apprentice that AJ was training but he was great as well. once we arrived at our destination they got us on the fish quick. I highly recommend Captain Emilio and his boat the “Cachi”. Him and his crew are all very knowledgeable. You cant go wrong booking a trip with these guys.
