started the day off greeted bybthe crew, the lads where great talk me through everything. i ask about shark fishing and before i new it we was at the point dropping a bait. it didnt tale long before the first hit, which we succeeded on landing. (my first bull shark) around 80lb. what a fight, ive caught some fish in my time but for a juvenile bull shark it put up one hell of a fight. we went on yo catch another but before that we lost one, i can only explain it to being attached to a train, it just run. finished the day off trawling but had no luck. overall it was a fantastic trip, the crew couldnt do enought for me. thank uou bery much. a trip i definitely wont forget.
I would like to start by this was a very organized trip for us. Pick up to and from the boat was arranged for us at a reasonable price. We fished with Necrio as the deckhand (sorry im sure its spelled differently). He had a full time job clearing weeds from lines and re tying rigs. He took good care of everyone while on the boat. All the gear and boat were in good shape. I would say the waves around the D.R. are more choppy that I prefer to be on. It was a normal day for them. I was worried that only 1 of 6 of us had been deep sea fishing and the trip would get called short but everyone hung in there even if they were sea sick. Only negative I have is it seemed it wasnt expected that we would want the fish to bring home. The filet job was a good start to prepping the fish to cook, but still needs finished. just use to being able to soak filets and cook after coming off a charter. It seemed like an inconvenience to ask for them to be cleaned and beggers cant be choosey. Still would recommend this charter for people with experience going out deep sea fishing. I would be hesitant if you have small children just based off choppy water on a normal day.
Before we departed the Captain let us know that there were large swells, and the trip could be rough. He offered to take us back to our resort and not charge us for the excursion. We decided to go, and we soon learned of his honesty. it was rough and a few of us were not enjoying the morning. Without hesitation he returned to the marina to drop off a few of our group. He took the balance of us out to finish our tour. We caught some Dorado and all had a good time. We would recommend this to anyone.
Everything was great. The crew was very well prepared, motivated, and fun to be with. The trip itself was excellent and well organized. Unfortunately, the weather was not ideal — it was windy with big waves. Despite that, we still managed to catch one small mahi-mahi and a slightly bigger barracuda. Overall, a great experience and a professional team. Highly recommended
