Make some memories in Calheta and go fishing with Pesca Grossa Hard and Play Fishing. With Captain Frothy at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
Amberjack, European Barracuda, Dusky Grouper, Atlantic Mackerel, Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Almaco Jack, Red Snapper, Longbill Spearfish, Albacore Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, Wahoo, and more could be biting if conditions are right.
On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Frothy also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing.
Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Don't forget to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!
Your vessel for the day is a 34' Rodman with space for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Capt. Frothy will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks included on board.
