We booked the 4-hour deep sea fishing trip, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! We brought my mother in law, who loves fishing but rarely gets the opportunity to go, and she was so happy the entire time. The crew took excellent care of us from start to finish, and it was obvious that they are highly skilled and experienced fishermen. We caught a mahi mahi and two barracudas, which made the trip even more exciting! Afterward, the crew recommended that we take our catch to Charlie’s, a local restaurant, and it was one of the best recommendations we could have received. They prepared our fish four different ways, and every dish was absolutely delicious.
This was truly one of the highlights of our trip, and I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting St. Maarten!

Captain Anthony (Papa Smurf) and First mate Magic Mike were so amazing. I booked a half day deep sea fishing trip for myself and they went above and beyond. They were so kind,helpful, knowledgeable and encouraging when I was trying to reel in my catches. Both work equally hard in different ways to help you to get the best fish to take home after. Mike was constantly working the rods/rigs/tackle and Anthony was navigating the waters to find the best areas for catching the fish! I got lucky and was fortunate enough to get great weather and snag a couple fish. We caught 2 barracudas (we released after) & 2 Mahi Mahis (my goal catch). Once we got to the dock, Mike cleaned and prepped my fish to take home. I brought some to a local restaurant to cook by recommendation by Captain Anthony! I will definitely book again when I come back in September! Thanks for the memorable experience! FISH ON!

The captain Papa Smurf and first mate Mike were great.  We caught 8 Mahi Mahi and ended up eating at Charlie’s which was recommended by Papa Smurf.  We invited them to join us to eat our fish and Papa Smurf and his nephew joined us.  This is the most fun fishing trip I have had and totally because of Papa Smurf and Mike.  If we visit St. Maarten again I will definitely go fishing with them.  Very clean and well kept boat.

First fishing trip ever for myself and our boys. Rouhh seas and Papa even called ahead and wanted to see if we wanted to cancel because his morning trip cut their trip short becuase if the rockin and rolling. we went in our journey and sure enough landed 2 barracuda and a coiple other fish o. the line but dis nit make it on the boat, maybe next time!

Anthony “Papa Smurf” and Magic Mike were great!!! We did a 3/4 day trip. Even with rough early morning seas they made catches happen. We caught a King Mackerel, Wahoo and albacore tuna, as well as several barracuda. We had 5 people (parents and 3 teens) on board and they took great care of us! The boat is a little small so if you’re prone to get seasick, this may not be the advture youre looking for. Although we started out slow, the guys put us on some fish. We even saw a shark follow our King fish to the boat. Luckily, they helped get it in so it was our dinner, not the sharks! They filleted our catch and helped us get connected with Charlie and Valsta at Charlies Place that cooked our fish to perfection for a fun fresh dinner. A great experience & highly recommend this crew!
