Bucket List fishing Day ! ! !
3/4 Day Trip on August 8, 20263 adults

Incredible experience! These guys wore us out catching trophy fish. Shortly over an hour into the trip we locked onto a 200lb Blue Marlin! My son’s girlfriend (ladies first) cranked her life away on our first “fish-on”. She has not stopped talking about it. I caught a 70+ Yelllowfin Tuna and the fine folls at the Cangrejos Yacht Club at the Marina prepared and served up 3lbs of Tartare for us and provided sides and drinks after our day out. It was the most amazing day!!! We are trying to plan another trip soon. Captain and Frist Mate were exceptional! Thank you both!

Successful trip even in choppy sea
3/4 Day Trip on March 5, 20266 adults

We set out knowing the sea was going to be 6-8 ft. But the boat was able to handle it with no problem and never felt unsafe. We agreed to cut the trip short, just in case the forecast changed. The Captain was completely in control at all times and made the trip as pleasant as he could. He was also very knowledgeable of the fishing area and fish patterns. He was able to spot a seaweed trail and followed it until we hooked a nice size Mahi. Made my brother's birthday worth the trip. Captain Jose was awesome as well as his deckhand Cristian who took great care of us and helped us with the rigs. Will definitely book again. Hopefully very soon!

Pepe knows what he's doing!!
3/4 Day Trip on August 22, 20266 adults

came out hoping for a good fishing experience, and Captain Pepe and his 1st mate Chris were consummate professionals. They worked tirelessly all morning and put us on some fish!! Too much honestly. We had to give half of it away! Pepe is the man. Knowledgeable, professional and very approachable. Just a great guy. he made the whole experience that much better. We're already planning for the next trip!

Once in a Lifetime Marlin
3/4 Day Trip on March 10, 20266 adults

We had a great trip with captain Pepe and his mate Christopher. The seas were a bit rough but he made the most of it and drove the boat amazingly through the waves. The hit was fought at first but we were able to land a Mahi Mahi to take home for dinner and a once in a life time catch of a White Marlin. We were a party of 6 and there were seats for all of us with plenty of space. If we return to Puerto Rico we would love to go on another charter with Captain Pepe and his crew! Thanks again!

3/4 Day Trip on August 3, 20262 adults3 children

Captain Jose provided and great experience for me and my three boys. We had a successful trip and caught some yellowfin tuna. We cooked and ate a small potion that evening for 7 people which we all enjoyed. We look forward to another deep-sea fishing trip with Captain Jose on our next visit to PR!

I have spent my whole life on and around the Atlantic Ocean. When I was young I used to spend most of my free time surfing. I then started spearfishing, and finally trolling for Dolphin. Fishing is what I like to do most in my life. Now, my favorite technique is trolling with artificial lures for White and Blue Marlin. We may also catch Wahoo, Dolphin, King Mackerel, and Sailfish.
