Half Day Trip (AM) on June 26, 2025
Rough seas and no bites at first, but then BAM! What an experience! We told Captain Pepe that we were looking for dinner. So his crew member, Manny, set our tackle up appropriately for Mahi-Mahi and tuna. First catch was a blue marlin, something we were not expecting. What a surprise and an experience to catch something like that. Right after that we caught a decent Mahi and a couple of yellowfin tuna. Really excited that I got to share this experience with my kid. Highly recommended. I will be connecting with Blue Water Fishing PR when we come back. Check out their Facebook and reviews to see all the catches.

Half Day Trip (AM) on May 4, 2025
Visiting Puerto Rico for the first time. We had great luck using fishingbooker to connect with Captain Pepe and his first mate Manny. We had the greatest luck on the only nice day of the weekend (May 4). I'm an experienced charter captain out of Duxbury MA and seek out similar qualities to my charters. A short trip out to blue water for a 4-hour charter, resulted in plenty of mahi mahi at a time where no one was catching fish in the previous days. Upon our return, Captain Pepe nicely filleted the fish and we took a filet with his recommendation to the new reef restaurant a short walk away from the marina. We highly recommend Captain Pepe putting us on fish and knowing exactly where to go. And I recommend the mushroom sauce over mahi fillet. An outstanding combination of great fishing and a great meal.

We came to Puerto Rico for a birthday fishing experience we only dreamed about. Capt Pepe and Manuel did not let us down. From being super down to earth to an extremely ready professional fishing team. My wife’s dream was to catch a Dorado and the Capt did everything in his power to make it happen and we did. He not only cleaned the fish and packaged what we asked for but made a call to a local restaurant owner and set us up with the best location to enjoy our fresh catch. We will be back and I will never have to look for another Capt in Puerto Rico again!!

Not our first time fishing off-shore in Puerto Rico but it was our first time with Captain Pepe and first mate Manny. Captain Pepe kept us on the fish most of the day, hauling in nearly a dozen dorado! Manny is great and knowledgable beyond his years; he kept us entertained while keeping the gear wet. Our only regret was not hauling that dinosaur-sized white marlin in the boat; sorry I let you down captain, we’ll get him in a few months! Can’t recommend this charter enough! See you guys again in few months!

Captain Pepe has a nice boat and good equipment with Penn reels. The fishing was tough for all the charters today, but we were happy to bring home a dorado for dinner. We also landed/released a barracuda and had a billfish hit. The Captain’s experience put us on some fish and that’s all we could ask for. Manny, the first mate, was super knowledgeable on deck and took care of us. When not hooking fish he gave us tons of recommendations for things to do in Puerto Rico. I would book this trip again.

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.
