Great crew, great time
Half Day Trip on November 2, 20258 adults
Our group of 7 had a fantastic time! We had newbies and experienced fisherman, and the crew made it fun, exciting and instructional for us. We all caught tons of fish. We caught enough to feed our full group of 24. And if that wasn't enough, they filleted the fish for us and recommended a local restaurant that will cook it for us. I highly recommend this crew of the Toaba. They did absolutely everything right. Our guide even stopped for one moment and directed us towards the horizon where we were able to see a whale in the distance.

Great time
Full Day Trip on September 1, 20253 adults
Headed way out Fishing was a little slow, but definitely got us on the fish. Had a great day we were heading back in. They had already cleaned everything packed up all the lines 10 minutes from the marina. They spotted something quickly through lines back in the water and we nailed four more fish. Great trip thanks Juan and juan

Half Day Trip on April 16, 20254 adults
Highly Recommend Captain and Carlos – An Unforgettable Fishing Adventure! I can’t say enough about the incredible fishing trip we had with Captain and Carlos! My friend Brian, our three kids, and I went out with them for a day on the ocean, and it was hands-down one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had. From start to finish, these guys were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had an absolute blast. It took about 45 minutes to reach the spot where the fish were biting, but once we got there, it was pure magic. The fish were hitting one after another for a solid hour—it was non-stop action! We were reeling them in so fast that I’m convinced if we’d had one more deckhand, we could’ve caught hundreds. My kids were over the moon, and I know they’ll be talking about this trip for years to come. Captain and Carlos knew exactly where to take us and kept the energy high, making sure everyone was having fun and landing fish. What really stood out was their honesty and kindness. I didn’t have cash on me for the trip and let them know afterward (I was upfront about it because I didn’t want any issues). Not only were they completely understanding, but they went out of their way to take us to an ATM via the boat so I could pay. When I accidentally overpaid, they meticulously counted the money and insisted on giving me back the extra. That level of integrity is rare and speaks volumes about their character. Captain and Carlos were fantastic with the kids, keeping them engaged and safe while creating an atmosphere of pure joy. They’re not just skilled at what they do—they’re genuinely great people who care about their guests. This trip gave my kids, Brian, and me memories we’ll cherish forever, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing adventure with honest, professional, and fun guides, book with Captain and Carlos—you won’t be disappointed! Troy K.
