We booked the 3 hour sunset cruise. None of us had ever fished before and we were hoping to catch a marlin to recreate a photo of our friends father who recently passed away. We told the captain that and he told us we would make it happen! We got 1 pack of the live bait after being told it would make or break the trip. The boat ride itself was amazing. We got to see the arches and a great stretch of the coast.
When we put the lines in the water, we immeditaely caught two Mahi! They were huge and it was so exciting to sit in the fising chair and reel them in. We didnt get any bites for 90 minutes but then everything change. We caught a marlin that got away. Then shortly after we caught two more marlin at the same time. It was so chaotic, fun, and hilarious. Two of us are trying to reel the marlins in and the rest of us are screaming in excitement. One got away and one we were able to get into the boat, take pictures, and released it back into the ocean.
We also saw whales coming up to the surface at least 10 times. This was the trip of a lifetime. I believe Carlos was our captain and Ivan was the first-mate. They were AMAZING.
