Mystic Amara Fishing Charters is based in Jolly Harbour, Antigua, and runs bottom fishing and deep sea fishing charters during the entire year. Captain Leroy has more than 20 years more than years of experience under his belt and can show you the best spots for a range of fish that can be found in this part of the Caribbean.

You will be fishing aboard the Mystic Amara III which is a 31’ Bertram offshore sport fishing boat, powered by two 200 HP Volvo engines. Apart from all the necessary safety and navigation gear, the boat also has a cooler and a private head for those longer trips. There’s plenty of space on board for up to six people, and the captain provides bottled water, soda, and beer for your pleasure.

Depending on what you want to fish for, you can go up to around ten miles offshore. However, most trips involve going no more than four miles from the shore, which should comfortably put you on depths in the 100’ to 300’ range. Some of the fish you can catch during the entire year are Yellowfin and Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and others, while Blue Marlin, and Kingfish are best targeted during the summer months.

The price includes all necessary rods, reels, and terminal tackle, as well as the required fishing licenses. Make sure to bring a pair of polarized sunglasses, as well as a camera to show off your catch, and also because the vistas are sure to take your breath away.

We depart from the dockside at Basilico Restaurant in the Jolly Harbour Commercial Center.

Half Day Trip (AM) on April 21, 2025

My wife and I had a fantastic am fishing trip with Captain Lee & 1st mate Aaron, we caught a total of 6 fish, Mahi-Mahi, Wahoo, and 4 Barracudas, only had one fish that didn’t make it to the boat. The Crew was very personable, and outgoing which would’ve made out trip enjoyable even if we had caught any fish!

Extended Day Marlin Trip on March 14, 2025

As most anglers know when you go fishing you do not always catch! Well what a day on the water! We went out targeting Marlin and although unsuccessful in catching a Marlin the overall day was a success! 2 Mahi, 4 wahoo (largest over 55lbs, 1 king, 3 black fin tuna and about 4 barracuda. The captain filleted out one mahi and one wahoo for us to cook up the remainder of nights in town. Awesome captain and deck hand. GREAT FISHING!

Half Day Trip (PM) on May 22, 2024

Mystic Amara had a conflict for our date. The Captain reached out a few days before the trip and had Pacific Marlin with Captain Sloan and First Mate Terry arranged for our same time and place for our party of 2. We had some rain and sporty sea but that didn’t stop us from having fun and catching 18 Mahi Mahi, 2 barracuda, and 1 Mackerel. Only a few got away. Caption Sloan arranged for the restaurant to cook our Mahi for us. We had 4 steaks cooked perfectly! They also made me perfect sushi rice. When I slid the fish off of the skin, the skin was still Yellow and Blue! Since we caught so much a few locals came and bought some of the fish and we got to watch them cut it up and bag it on ice. It really was the best fishing experience and great stories from our vacation. This excursion was roughly the same price as the 40 person Catamaran tour, and the helicopter tour. If you are on the fence about booking, CLICK! The captain’s from Jolly Harbor will take good care of you!
