    Amazing experience

    Full Day Trip – Big Game Fishing on August 6, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had an amazing day on the water! We caught two fantastic fish—a large wahoo and a beautiful mahi-mahi (dorado). We also had another strike, probably from a tuna, but unfortunately we couldn't land it. Neil and Mick were both incredibly friendly, professional, and hardworking. They did everything they could to make sure we had a great experience and put us on the fish. (Mike's briefing before we left the marina was first-class. He clearly explained everything, demonstrating outstanding knowledge, experience, and professionalism). I will definitely book another trip on the Flipper II. Highly recommended!

    Yahoo for Wahoo!

    Half Day – Big Game Fishing (AM) on September 7, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Neil and Micky were a treat to fish with. We had 2 half days of fishing. The first day we spent 2 hours on the water and the wind was blowing too hard so we called it quits and Neil was generous enough to give us another try on a different day. Day 1 The waters were flat calm. We had just a bit of time left in the day and we hooked into a great 40-50lb Wahoo. My first! Coninued and and my son caught his first Mackeral. Day 2 started off hot with my son catching a 10lb Tuna less than an hour in. His first! Boated beside a boat that was fighting a 700lb Blue Marlin. WOW! We had a beautiful spread of big marlin lures but it wasnt meant to be for us. Micky was great, Neil was great. Recommend fishing with this couple. Our first trip to Madeira and forever memories enjoyed by us all. Thank you guys and hope to see you soon!

    Great Skipper and crew!

    Evening Tuna Fishing Trip on April 14, 2026 • 1 adult

    I would absolutely book another charter with this Skipper. She promptly answered all messages and provided updated recommendations to improve my chances of catching the trophy fish I was looking for before the trip. During the trip, she provided insights about the island and its local culture and also gave me some good information I could use for the next time I booked a charter on the island. While I did not catch any fishes on my charter. I’m planning on coming back to the island for another try at catching my trophy fish. When I do, Skipper Mick will be my first choice for a charter.

    Great trip, almost caught a big one!

    Half Day Mixed Fishing am on June 10, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Did a half day with some trolling and bottom fishing with captain Neil and Micky. Got Mahi on the line but he shook free. Caught some trigger and dorado for lunch. Crew was great with my boys, if you can get on their boat (very busy schedule), I’d highly recommend them! Sorry again to Steve, my son caught him with a hook😬

    Mick et son mari étaient géniaux. Ils nous ont directement mis à l'aise et malgré que nous n'ayons pas attrapé de gros poissons, nous avons passé un super moment. Nous avons pu repartir avec nos plus belles prises et les avons fait préparer par le restaurant juste en face de la marina 👌🏼 Nous recommencerons sans hésiter !

    Half Day Mixed Fishing am on October 29, 2026 • 2 adults

    Erfaren och trevlig besättning. Bra sjövett och mycket goda fiskekunskaper. Vi fick tyvärr inget på trolling. Men bottenfisket gav ett tiotal mindre fiskar. En överlag bra fiskeresa👍😊 Kan absolut rekomenderas.

    Half Day Mixed Fishing am on March 8, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We went on a half day trip on Flipper II. Really had a pleasant day, despite not catching the big fish. On latter half of the trip we did catch 6 different kinds of smaller fish (tried deepwater fishing), had exceptional dinner that evening :)
