Fishing was an integral part of my life almost from birth. Fishing was a central part of what my family did for fun. We were poor but could always find a way to fish and enjoy life as a family. I operated the Luck Lady Hatteras for 15 years in Destin, Florida. Upon experiencing the incredible sailfish and marlin fishing in Guatemala we relocated to Guatemala 2 years ago and refit a great 31 Bertram. She became our show piece vessel as we spared nothing turning her into a true fishing machine. We have put together one of the finest Captain and crew combinations and have added state of the art electronics to aide us in locating the bite for our clients.

    2 Days with Mad Marlin

    2 Ppl Fish & Stay - 2 Days 3 Nights

    My 13 year old son and I fished with Captain Rick and his crew for two days, staying with him at his house. Rick was a good host, and his boat proved a fish finding machine. Crew members made one of the best cheeseburgers we'd had in awhile, which was an unexpected bonus to two good days fishing. Doug Mozan

    It was a pleasure to have you and your son fishing with us. You guys were fishing like pros. I was really impressed with how fast you 13 yr old son picked up the technique. That father and son double release of two Pacific sailfish was a real highlight of the trip for us. I have some even better photos to upload but the file size is too large at high resolution. I will try to work on that but you have copies anyway that I sent to you at the time of your trip. I image some are on your wall by now. LOL Hope to see you again soon. Rick

    Thanks so much. The entire Mad Marlin crew truly loved fishing with you. We had just as much fun as you did. We got lots of great fishing action shots during you trip. The internet fans have been in awe of many of those photos for months now. Rick Mad Marlin Sport Fishing

A hooked billfish leaps from open blue ocean water during an offshore fishing trip.

Super half day of fishing

Jul 21, 2018 • Puerto Quetzal
Client could only fish 4-5 hours but that was plenty time for him to release 10 sailfish on 11 raised and 11 bites (91 percent release ration is fabulous). He was very happy but exhausted. He also caught 3 sailfish on his own gear because Mad Marlin encourages anyone who has some gear of their own to use it. A great fishing day in anyone's book. The bite is hot now for sail fish, marlin, dorado, and tuna. Come catch them while the bit is hot and near shore (less than 20 miles!!!).

A billfish, likely a sailfish, leaps dramatically from the open blue ocean with water spraying around it.

The bite is great now

Oct 31, 2017 • Puerto Quetzal
After several weeks of rain and green water inshore, the bite is on near shore. Multiple blue marlin and sailfish raises per day for most boats.

Guatemala Mad Marlin Fishing Report

Feb 23, 2017 • Puerto Quetzal
We had a strong sailfish bite today. Raised 28 and have 20 bites and 18 releases using bait and switch. Bit was best at about forty miles. Clients had a blast. The did everything but rig the ballyhoo. The positioned the baits and teasers and the hookups all by themselves and did a great job. With all the action, our clients had 2 doubles and one triple release!
