I had an amazing trip with Captain Frank in Puerto Rico. From the moment we got on the water, it was obvious that he really knows his stuff when it comes to targeting blue marlin. His knowledge, experience, and ability to put us on fish made for an unforgettable day. The highlight of the trip was hooking into an absolute monster blue marlin. We battled that fish for nearly two hours, and Captain Frank coached me through the entire fight. Unfortunately, the marlin shook the hook right at the end, but the experience of fighting such a powerful fish was incredible and something I'll never forget. After that long battle, I was completely exhausted, and with the wind coming in, Captain Frank switched gears and took me after some king mackerel. We had success there as well, and to top it off, he filleted the fish for me so I had fresh fish to bring home and enjoy. Overall, it was a fantastic fishing trip with a very knowledgeable captain, great action on the water, and some absolutely awesome views. I highly recommend Captain Frank and the Blue Marlin trip to anyone looking for a memorable fishing experience in Puerto Rico! 🤙
