Spent the day with Captain Rick and mate Orlando. After a slow morning, we found the yellowfin tuna and caught plenty. Once we had some fish for eating we targeted billfish and hooked and landed two sails. A great day, and excellent hosts.
Chad, thank you for your kind review and great photos, both are very much appreciated
Captain Rick knows what he's doing and will guide yoy through all the steps of finding and cathching fish. I caught (and released) a sailfish and my kids a blue marlin (catch & release) and a yellow fin tuna (which we kept and ate later that evening). We also saw sea turtles, dolphins and a mother whale with calf on our way back home.
Fishing wasn't lights out seeing it was early in the season but Rick did his best to provide us with the best opportunity. We caught several yellowfin and a dorado. I would definitely fish with him again.
Matt, thank you for the reviews, your family was a pleasure to fish with. Maybe the next trip we will have some sailfish action for you!
Fishing was very slow, with zero hits most of the day. We wanted to call it around 1 but the captain would not quit until my daughter caught something. Around 2:00 out day turned positive when we hooked into a blue marlin!
Matt, we appreciate you sticking it out. id much rather be a hero than a zero! thanks for the video and photo, hope you don mind me using them on our FB page!
