this was a great fishing trip! Gordo arrnaged a taxi to pick us up and drop us off at the dock. The fishing trip was very memorable, we were catching tuna two to three at a time. Then we caught a Mahi Mahi to top things off. The trip was truly a great experience. Book with Gordo is yiu are looking to catch fish and have a great time doing so. Gordo's first mate was also very cool, he taught us things along the way and kept us locked onto reeling the next fish in. We were very pleased with our trip! Thanks again Gordo!
It was honestly great having you a board sir , wishing you all the best
We caught two blue marlin approaching 300 lbs! Some rough seas, but Capt.Gordo put us on these two beautiful fish and first mate Cornel(sp?) helped seal the deal and got both fish tagged. Marlin are no guarantee anytime anywhere, but these two can help you check off your bucket list fish!
My kids and i had a blast! We caught Barracuda, Wahoo and Tuna. Great experience! The captain new the area and first mate never stopped working, was very funny and took great pictures! Families and groups of friends will love this trip. They provide everything you need, just show up and fish.
Thank yiu for choosingbus sir , glad you enjoyed it 🎉
Gordo and Koronel were outstanding and accommodating. We got lucky and was able to get picked up and dropped off at our floating dock. Tons of opportunity to get on fish. We ended up catching tons of yellowtail and skipjack, mahi, and barracuda. Trolled the remaining half day for bill fish and managed to get a sail fish to roll on our bait but no luck. Koronel is hilarious and has a passion for getting fish on his lines.
Captain Gordo and his wonderful deckhand to my wife and I on an unforgettable trip this morning! we started off quickly landing a mahi in the boat fast. soon after we locked onto a 350+lb blue marlin, the fight was unreal and the crew did a great job helping work the big boy in! fun times and would definitely recommend
Thank you mr Spencer !
