Michael CarmicheRepeat angler5.0Verifiedgreatest experience of fishing i have ever had!
4 Hour Trip – Big Game Fishing (AM) on August 5, 2026 • 2 adultsI have been on many fishing trips. This one is tops all of them. Adriano and his crew were spectacular! he put us right on the fish! When odds were against, he still delivered! Nicest and most sincere captain and crew that i have ever experienced! I am beyond happy that we crossed paths and will definitely be traveling back to the Azores for some more fishing with Adriano and the Ratinho crew👍🏼
Andriy Shnyr5.0VerifiedBlue marlin: cached and released
6 hr Big Game Trip Am on August 16, 2026 • 1 adultIt was a perfect big game fishing expirience. First we spotted a school of Mahi-Mahi and hooked one of them. And then a dream fish: blue marlin. Under aprofessional guidnace of captain Adriano we were able to catch and release the fish. Great and smooth big game fishing day! Thanks Andriano and Sofia!
Mickel MontanoRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMust Book!
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing PM on August 21, 2026 • 4 adultsAdriano was the best captain ever! He was aware we were fishing with children and suggested we go out earlier. He accommodated my kids. We caught 15 fish. We made the best memories. I highly recommend booking this trip if we ever come back; we will do this again!
Mindaugas VelickaRepeat angler5.0VerifiedMorning trip
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing AM on August 17, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childThe crew is very professional, know local shores. We have hooked 6 baracudas in 2 hours trolling, plus a few bites, and later had fun catching seabream and garoupas in bottom fishing. The trip went very smooth, highly recommend!
Greg LuiRepeat angler5.0VerifiedCaught so much fish. Great trip. Highly recommend.
6 hr Big Game Trip Am on August 13, 2026 • 5 adultsGreat captain and crew. Did 6 hour trip. Caught lots. We have a kitchen and bbq cooked lots and gave lots of fish to staff. Everyone loves fish in Azores. Will definitely fish again with Captain Adriano. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
Claus Søndergård5.0VerifiedFriendly, proffesional and relaxed.
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing AM on August 30, 2026 • 4 adultsWe cought primarily batacudas by trolling, as the fish this day vere lasy at the bottom, but the captain did the best to find a spot with more activity. I can recomend this trip! Claus Soendergaard, Denmark
Timothy Siemer5.0VerifiedFantasitc family fishing trip
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing AM on March 14, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenThis was a fantastic fishing trip. The captain and crew made sure everyone was comfortable. we caught a ton of fish and go to enjoy the beautiful coastline. My wife and son were worried about seasickness but it was not an issue. The captain stayed in calm waters and everyone had a blast.
Cam Desmarais5.0VerifiedFantastic late afternoon fishing trip
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing PM on July 31, 2026 • 2 adultsEveryone was excellent to deal with and talk to. Would recommend and will do again!
Eric BrennanRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat day on the water
4 Hour Trip–Coast Bottom Fishing AM on June 18, 2025 • 2 adultsCaptain Adriano and his mate worked well as a team to help us land several species of nearshore fish (Grouper, barracuda, triggerfish and sea bream). We went with the combination trolling/bottom fishing 4 hour trip which was recommended by the Captain at that time. They also go out for larger offshore species (Tuna, marlin, etc.) but they can be seasonal so go with what the Captain suggests. He also extended the trip for us so we could catch a large triggerfish (and we did) which we have never tasted before. Upon return we only kept the fish we could eat (filleted) and the rest the Captain gave to people he knows who really appreciate the gift. We highly recommend fishing on the Ratinho and we will certainly go out again when we return to Sao Miguel.
