Aquarius Sport Fishing
Aquarius Sport Fishing welcomes you aboard! Come experience fishing in Ocho Rios, a prime fishing destination in Jamaica that will give you plenty of chance to reel in a great catch and have an unforgettable time on the water. Captain Vaughn Johnson can take you off the shore while making sure you have a fun and successful trip you'll remember for a long time.
Your adventure begins on a restored 55' Hatteras convertible, a mighty boat that's powered by two 650 HP Detroit diesel engines and spacious enough to accommodate up to 10 guests. Fitted to provide great comfort, the boat features air-conditioning, a multimedia system, TV, refrigerator, and ice-box. You'll have access to all of its facilities, which include a flybridge, kitchen, toilet, shower, and bed. The boat's also well-equipped for fishing and has got outriggers, fighting chair and snorkeling gear. On top of it all, there will be a first mate present to give you any help you may need during the trip.
Together with Captain Vaughn and crew, you will target Mahi Mahi, different species of Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Bonito and Wahoo. This is successfully achieved by deep sea trolling about 5 to 8-miles off the coast of Ocho Rios.
Captain Vaughn will provide you with all the necessary fishing gear, bait, licenses, as well as beer and water, so you'll just need some snacks for the trip. On full day trips, you'll even get a complimentary lunch.
Come to Ocho Rios and enjoy a wonderful day on the waters of Jamaica!

My husband and I did a ½ day AM fishing trip with our 4 kids - boys 24,23, 17, and our 16-year-old daughter and her friend. The boat was super nice and comfortable. The inside was really nice. Sitting up with the captain was also amazing, and the space up on top with him could accommodate all 7 of us. Vaugh, Caption Munchie, and the crew were all so friendly and were great to talk to. It was a great trip, and I highly recommend fishing with them. If we come back, I will re-book with them for sure!
We had a great trip with Vaughn and his crew! If you're looking to fish around Jamaica, please check them out! Vaughn was super responsive and knowledgeable with any questions I had. He helped arrange transport for us to and from the dock, which was awesome. The boat was very nice; it had an air-conditioned interior with a toilet and a comfortable couch, and a nice, mostly covered top deck (watch your head on the way up!). On the full-day trip, we were treated to sandwiches, soda, water, and Red Stripe! The crew was terrific. Captain Munchie, Snow, Barrington, and Marshal kept everything going smoothly and checked on us several times to make sure we didn't need another drink or anything else. They worked hard to find us the best spots to fish and were very keen observers, looking for birds in the sky or signs of fish in the water. The second the line snapped, they all jumped into action like a well-oiled machine. The sea was a bit rough while we were out; bring along some Dramamine, even if you don't think you usually get seasick. Otherwise, the ride was very peaceful. It was a lot of fun watching the flying fish; there were SO MANY of them, and they were definitely cool to see. Overall, we found just one large school of Tuna, which was a lot of fun in the frenzy of reeling them in 3-4 at a time. No big catch for us this time, but that happens - no one's fault! If we are back in Jamaica, we will definitely book with Vaughn and crew again for another shot at the big catch!
Vaughn was amazing. Communication was top notch from the very beginning. We caught 2 Mahi Mahi's back to back, and the crew helped facilitate everything well. I need everyone to know, you don't go to catch fish-you go to fish. 10/10 would definitely recommend.
Had a great time on Capt Vaughn's awesome boat. Capt Munchie, Vaughn and crew were all great. Though we didnt land anything, but it was certainly not from lack of trying. Had two blue marlin strikes, but both shook loose. 100% We will be back next time we are in Jamaica.
The Aquarius team were great - their experience helped us first-timer group of 10. Sharing knowledge and enabling our first strike !

Captain Vaughn's been tournament game fishing since childhood and has found it to be a great bonding experience with friends and family. He likes meeting new people to share his boating experiences and develop commonality. The captain believes Marlin is the top prize fish and landing one is the pinnacle of game fishing.
