    Great boat and even better crew

    Full day trip big yelow fin tuna on November 24, 2023 • 2 adults

    Did a 12 hr trip and it was an amazing fishing trip. Boat and crew are top notch and would highly recommend. Took a Uber in the morning to the marina and as soon as we got dropped off the owner was there to greet us. 5 minutes later we got on the boat and off we went. Went and caught some bonito for live bait and then began trolling. Didn’t get the yft I was hoping for but got some huge dorado. Captain worked hard all day to get us on the fish. Don’t hesitate on booking this boat, great music and comfy boat had me and my fiancé enjoying the day on the water. We brought our own snacks/lunch, but they had plenty of drinks. Can’t wait to fish with them again, family owned and operated!

    Excellent trip!

    Full day trip big yelow fin tuna on April 18, 2023 • 2 adults

    Eduardo is a real badass fisherman. We did a full day and it was slow out in the deep water, but we were still able to reel in a couple mahi mahi. He worked is butt off and found us some rooster fish and helped us through the process of getting them mounted. Very fun day.
