Can’t say enough good things about fishing with Captain Marcelino and his crew.  Was beyond excited for our half day fishing trip with somebody that grew up on the waters of Aruba.  It was a typical beautiful Aruba day for fishing.  Captain Marcelino’s boat was perfect, plenty of room to move around and a place to take in some shade when needed.  His equipment was all top-notch and his crew was awesome and made sure we had everything we needed, pur only job on the boat was to real in some fish, they took care.of the rest.  Talk about a great day, we got enjoy the scenery, the water and some excellent fishing.  This is our first trip to Aruba and it has been amazing.  Will definitely be coming back and when we do we will be calling Captain Marcelino up for a full day fishing adventure.  Highly recommend!

Captain Marcelino and 1st mate Micheal took us out and we had the first fish in the boat before 7 am. We trolled in multiple areas around the Island and ended up with 10 barracuda by the end of our trip. Captain Marcelino keeps and immaculate boat with very nice equipment. We ended the day with the 10 fish, but had multiple other bites that we weren’t able to get landed. Overall, great experience and would book another trip if I ever get back to Aruba!

March 30, 2023 my son, myself and Joey went out at 6 AM
The trip started out slow…we trolled out for about 1 1/2 trying to hookup with no luck. So the captain decided to head deeper, meanwhile Jerry the awesome mate never stopped working.  He was rigging more bait and checking lines and changing line, setup and colors …trying to get us on fish. Soon after we reached the cans I said to Joey get ready cause I think we’re going to hook up. Then it happened and we were on, Joey landed a solid Yahoo between 25-30 Lbs what a great fight. Then the captain continued to go out deeper and there was a oil tanker anchored so being very experienced the captain trolled us on the side of the tanker and so after we had double trouble we had finally got on them with doubles. The water had gotten pretty rough by this time and we had to really had to hang on while moving about the boat but we were now in the zone. After another hour and half the waves continued to build and we had caught more Wahoo’s and also picked up 2 albacore’s and one small shark. Because of our exceptionally day and how tuff it had gotten I ask the Captain to take us in a little early. We ended our day with 6 nice Wahoo’s, 2 albacore’s and 1 shark. Not only did Marcelino put us on the fish, Jerry our mate never ever stopped working.  His attitude was so much fun to be around.  If I ever come back or should I say when I come back I will not hesitate to go out with them again.  Our memories will last forever 🙏🙏🙏🎈🎈

Captain Marcelino and his Mate Omar were super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. We went out on an afternoon fishing excursion that I kind of planned last minute. The bite wasn’t extraordinary, but I knew that being later in the day. This was my son’s first time saltwater fishing and we still had a blast. He caught his first Black Fin Tuna!!! The boat was extremely organized and clean. It handled very well in the windy conditions that we faced out to sea. I will return again next year and plan a morning fishing excursion with Marcelino for sure. Highly recommended!!!

The crew went out of their way to accommodate our request. They were even able to pick us (at 6:00 am) up at the pier close to our resort . Of course no fisherman can guarantee that you catch fish but we did. They know the waters and if the fish are bitting, your going to catch fish. There were six in our group and everyone hooked a fish at least once! At the end of our trip they cleaned our fish and on their recommendation we took it to a restaurant (Nos Clubhuis) that prepared it perfectly Thank you again Captain Marcelino and Raymond (Toro)!
