Fish Curacao on Papucho IV
Fish Curacao offers you the chance to experience the island’s incredible sportfishing with one of the best teams in the business! Join Captain Gordo on the ‘Papucho IV’ in search of Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Tuna, and more. Whether you’re an experienced offshore pro or planning your first deep sea fishing trip, this is the best crew to take you on a half or full day fishing adventure.
The ‘Papucho IV’ is a 45’ Hatteras sportfisher that is fully rigged for big game tournaments. It is a large, clean and comfortable yacht with an air-conditioned 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.
The waters around Curacao are famous for both the number and the size of the fish you can find here. Even on a half day trip, you can expect to run into Blue Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, and more. Book in for a full day, and you can take on a full cast of bluewater beasts with the chance of hooking a real record-breaker.
You will be provided with tournament-grade tackle at a variety of test strengths to match the wide mix of species you will be battling. Choose between trolling, spinning, bottom fishing, and traditional handline fishing to bring your fish.
If you’re all about the thrill of the fight, Capt. Gordo will focus on nothing but Billfish all day long. Want something tasty to take away? He will switch things up and load the boat with Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Rainbow Runner. Everything you need is waiting aboard, all that’s missing for the perfect charter is you!
