Whether you’re an experienced offshore pro or planning your first deep sea fishing trip, Fish Curacao are the best crew to take you on a half or full day fishing adventure.

The ‘Papucho IV’ is a 45 ft Hatteras sport fisherman that is fully rigged for big game tournaments. It is a large, clean and comfortable yacht with an airconditioned interior. Together with its excellent equipment and features, and the captain’s fishing and navigating skills, the Papucho IV is one of the most successful charter boats for offshore fishing.

Captain Gordo has won various major fishing tournaments in Curacao and the region, most recently the prestigious Presidential Challenge Central America: The 2011 Chivas Regal Aruba Caribbean Cup.

Captain Gordo has been fishing since childhood. He was a frequent visitor of the Curacao Yacht Club and took every opportunity to fish with the older and experienced members to learn the tricks of the trade. With his experience and being a connoisseur of the conditions of the sea surrounding the island and the fish that live in these waters, he is certainly one of the most reliable providers of deep sea fishing trips.

He speaks English, Dutch, Spanish and Papiamentu fluently.

Half day trip on the papa go with captain Gordo

Fished inshore and caught 7 black fin tuna one short bite on a wahoo rig. We went out into deeper water in hopes to hoook up with a marlin and we did. One hour fight and lots of action and landed and released a 8 foot 300 pound blue marlin. We had a great time.
