Based out of San Juan, Grillofishing Charters is your ticket to a memorable time on the water.

Capt. Luis aims to tailor every trip to your specific needs, so let him know what you’re after! Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like trolling, drift fishing, jigging, and spinning. You’re looking at 4-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Tarpon, Snook, Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel, Barracuda, and Mahi, depending on the weather and time of year.

Your adventure begins on board a 21’ Mako boat that can fit a maximum of 3 anglers. The boat is fitted with an ice box.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price, but you are welcome to bring your own. As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain so you don’t have to worry about it.

You’ll be able to keep any legal species caught during the trip, up to 2 pounds per person, and some species are only catch-and-release only.

Capt. Luis runs trips together with his first mate on certain offshore trips, who’s there to help you with whatever you may need. Tips are always appreciated for a job well done.

The price of your trip also includes complimentary snacks, but you’re welcome to bring your own. Please let the captain know if you have any questions or special requests.

Children, age 10 and up, are welcome aboard so you’re good to get the young ones started early.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Grillofishing Charters.

Capt. Luis runs trips out of San Juan aboard a 21’ Mako. These waters are known for Billfish and Mahi Mahi and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing or trolling. With 15 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
