Ernesto JacksonRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat day fishing with Gordo!
Full Day Trip on June 29, 2026 • 2 adultsthis 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!
Ethan Hauck5.0VerifiedVery rewarding, great experience!
3/4 Day Trip on June 1, 2026 • 3 adultsWe 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!
Matt Rudolph5.0VerifiedGreat experience
Full Day Trip on October 13, 2025 • 2 adultsGordo 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.
Spencer ChandlerRepeat angler4.7VerifiedHuge blue marlin
3/4 Day Trip on June 2, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain 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

3/4 Day Trip on January 26, 2026 • 2 adultsGreat day on the water with Capt Gordo! A little choppy but Capt Gordo navigated the swells and put us on Barracuda, Skipjack Tuna, Black Fin Tuna and Wahoo.
Kevin BlairRepeat angler5.0VerifiedBoat is outfitted to catch Fish
Half Day Trip (PM) on November 13, 2025 • 2 adultsGreat day on short notice. Specifically targeting Marlin and Sportfish. 4 hour trip and we were on fish early and caught Darado and a Nice White Marlin.
Rob NewcombeRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMonster yellow fin tuna
Full Day Trip on March 12, 2025 • 1 adult7am on the dot the boat backed up to the sandals dock and I was met with the smiles of Gordo (Captain) and Koronel (first mate). I stepped on board and was immediately impressed with how it was all set up. This looked like a proper fish catching machine ran by 2 experts and I wasn’t wrong. A pleasant ride out offshore with me asking lots of questions of Koronel on tackle to tactics (I like to understand the science), and then the gear was deployed. About 2 hours into the trip the back right reel screamed and in a few a seconds I was in the chair latched onto something which felt like a medium sized truck. About 90 minutes later Koronel and Gordo double gaffed the 154lb yellow fin, pulled it through the door and quickly despatched it. I could not believe the strength of that fish, my arms were shattered. The trip was perfect from initial contact at booking right through the day to being dropped off. Gordo and Koronel are an awesome team. Koronel has got to be the coolest first mate on the planet at this game with a fountain of knowledge he’s happy to share, an outstanding coach and great sense of humour to go with it. You won’t go wrong if you book with these guys.
