Superb Trip

Full Day Trip - Inshore on March 13, 2026 • 5 adults

I have fished on many charters but this was one of the best. Very fair price and a good safe Marina. 
Very nice clean boat and equipment. Had good selection of drinks on ice. Good snacks/lunch with fresh made sandwiches. 
Fishiing was great, started slow then the bite started. 18 sailfish total. Half dozen misses. 
Pure madness had 4 on at one time. The crew did a great job and was very prepared. Captain was very experienced. 
I would fish with these guys again. this was a full day trip. only way to charter a boat. We were 40 miles out. 

Only improvement would be bean bag marine chairs. Boat seats needed some help.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience

Half Day Trip - Inshore (AM) on November 19, 2025 • 2 adults

What can I say… wow, wow, and re-wow!
My boyfriend and I went on a full-day offshore fishing trip with Captain Jerry and his crew (Jose and Juan Carlo), and it was one of the most exciting fishing days ever!

The mahi-mahi were on fire, and so were the sailfish. Cowboy's team are true professionals. We caught at least 8 sailfish (at one point we had 5 on the lines at the same time and managed to bring 3 to the boat!), and we landed 11 mahi-mahi. I may have lost count because it was absolutely insane — doubles and triples happening over and over again. The Captain and crew were nonstop busy, and so were we!

This is a day we will never forget. Fish aren't always on fire like this, but let me tell you one thing… these guys know exactly what they're doing, and they will put you on fish.

I'd say: don't hesitate — JUST DO IT!!!

A lot of fish

Full Day Trip - Offshore on January 11, 2026 • 2 adults

We had a great day at sea with the Cowboy crew. They worked hard to make sure we caught fish. I have fished all over the world but nowhere else have we caught so many fish. We managed to catch one mahi mahi and 6 sailfish in 8 hours. Fishing is about the sea giving or not. You can't decide if you will catch fish or not, but this time the sea was generous. Thanks to the crew for the experience!

Full day offshore! Great time!

Full Day Trip - Offshore on April 2, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

I did a full day offshore with my wife and nephew.  We had a great time with Captain Jerry and his mates Juan Carlos and Jose. They worked hard to put us on the fish all day.  We ended up landing 6 sailfish. Captain and crew were very friendly and accommodating. Overall, we were very pleased and would definately book with this outfit again.  highly recommend!

Captain Put Us on Some Fish

Half Day Trip - Inshore (PM) on March 2, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

The captain put us right on the fish.  Within 5 minutes of leaving the marina, we were already reeling in baitfish.....5 minutes after that, we had our first bite.....sadly, it was a sierra mackerel that cut the line.  But it was non-stop after that.  Half day of fishing and we pulled in about 20-25 fish.  My boys were worn out.  Great work.
