    (Half Day Trip – Nearshore)

    Super fun, lots of fish

    We had a great trip with the kiddos this morning. He made sure everyone's lines stayed baited and that we kept catching fish. It was fun to watch him skillfully clean them from the boat on our way back. Mostly speaks Spanish. Boat by no means new or spotless, but comfy. Thanks Eduardo!

    Eduardo and the boat were exactly what we expected.

    Eduardo was great. The trip was great. caught sooo many fish, Trigger and Rock Bass. If you're looking for a half day away from the Lazy River go out and carch some fish on the Ponga with Eduardo.

    REEL'ER in!

    Captain Eduardo put us right on the spot and he went deeper and longer than what we scheduled ...and all for the same price!!! We're all beginners and we loved that he actually let us fish not just reel em in. He's definitely the best and most economical. We caught 2 buckets full of fish and he cleaned and cut up our cathch for us to cook.

    Great fish and boat!

    With the half day youll go anout an hour out and catch mostly triggerfish and bass. To catch grouper and bigger game youll need to book the full day. Highly recommend!

    Lots of fish caught

    Captain Eduardo is a man of few words but made sure we had a great experience. He took the time to educate us on techniques. His boat was fast and got us to 4 different locations in a very reasonable time. We were pretty impressed with his fileting skills. If you are looking for a charter that actually allows you to do the fishing, this is the one. Overall we were pretty satisfied and recommend!

Giant Seabass is a massive coastal game fish known for raw power and size. Anglers target it for the chance at a true lifetime catch. It often lives near structure, so the hunt is careful, slow, and very rewarding.

You will usually target Giant Seabass with inshore fishing and reef fishing around rocks, wrecks, or kelp. Bottom fishing works well, which means dropping baits to the seafloor. Live or cut bait like Mackerel, Sardine, or Squid is common. Slow-trolling live bait and working heavy jigs can also draw strikes. Use stout tackle and strong leaders to turn big fish away from structure.

Expect patient fishing with bursts of heavy action. The first run can be short but strong, and the fight is a steady grind. This trip suits dedicated beginners and seasoned anglers who enjoy teamwork and clear guidance. Captains often suggest circle hooks for safer releases and quick photos. Bring sun protection, a hat, polarized sunglasses, and layers for wind and spray. The crew will coach you on proper lifting and handling.

Rules for Giant Seabass can be unique and change often. Before your trip, check local fishing license and permit needs. Confirm season dates, open areas, gear rules, and harvest options where you plan to fish. Your captain can explain current regulations and best practices for careful handling and release.
