We had an amazing time on this fishing trip! At first, we caught six mackerel using artificial lures, but we had no luck at all with live bait. As the trip was coming to an end, we were feeling a little disappointed and thought, "Well, I guess we're heading back now." Then, about 20 minutes before reaching the dock, everything changed. A white marlin hit the line! We were absolutely shocked and couldn't believe our eyes. It was such an incredible and exciting moment for our family. We are so grateful for this amazing experience and the unforgettable memories. A huge thank you to Captain and the crew member (I'm so sorry, I don't remember his name, but he was absolutely the best!). Their hard work, positive attitude, and dedication made this trip truly special. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our family, and we highly recommend this charter to anyone visiting Aruba. Thank you again for an unforgettable day!
trip started slow but once we found a school of albacore we stayed with them and had fun catching lots of them football sized tasty treats. caught and ate my first barracuds,was always a little hesitant because of ciguatera but mate said not down here and let me tell you that was a very delicious fish. on way back to marina the handline snapped to attention with a thunderclap then pole startted screaming drag took my buddy 15mins to get a whopper of a bull.mahi.mahi. only suggestion is if you want your fish iced bring alot for the fish box because they dont have an iced box just a box. i find if you catch one in the morning on an 8hr trip thats a long time for a fish to be not iced. great day,great boat,great crew,spent an awesome day with my best buddy!!
It was a great day on the Carla! We had an amazing time fishing and can't thank Rudolph, Juan and their crew enough for the guide and experience. Rudolph and crew had strong expertise and knowledge to give us an experience we will never forget. Rudolph and his lead deck hand worked hard the entire time to allow us to focus on what we came to do, and that was to fish. We caught Mahi Mahi and Barracuda and afterwards the crew filleted our fish on the dock followed by Lucy's restaurant cooking it up for our lunch. A true sea to plate moment. We highly recommend the Carla and their crew!
Bite in aruba had been slow but these guys got us on fish and it was straight 1.5 hours of fish after fish. great time after a slower experience earlier in the week. Would definitely recommend for those looking to get on fish.
We did the 8-12 morning trip. Clamer waters, however calm is subjective to your water experience. I would recommend an anti nausea. The captain and deckhand we awesome, friendly, and I would book again. There were other boats out and it seemed like Wahoo was the catch of the day lol. Make sure you have sun protection clothing and proper boat shoes.
