My favorites are spinning rods, lures or natural baits, casting, deep sea fishing, and trolling.

5H PRIVATE OCEAN GAME

Unfortunately, we didn’t catch a fish but captain Franck is very skilled and has good material. We had a good time on a sunny day, the ocean was very calm and my wife took her sun bath. The captain has great rods, lures and he provided water and everything. He was entertaining, he enjoys sharing his experience which we did appreciate. I feel I was just unlucky and I would go with him again without any doubt

Thank you, Pascal, It was a real pleasure to roam the ocean in search of fish with you. You truly embodied the philosophy behind that good old fishing expression: “Don’t confuse fishing with catching.” But in fishing, persistence always pays off, and it would be a joy for me to take you out again!

Captain is a very experienced big game fisherman. Boat, gear and tackle were all organized, maintained and in excellent condition. Sharp new hooks, every reel had fresh line, and the captain was awesome. We hooked a large marlin in the 1st half hour. Trolled, chased birds and jigged for tuna. Overall great trip. Please let him know if you are not serious about big game fishing (long hours trolling and can be slow) He will cater to your desires. (Reef fishing with kids, handlining tuna…..) ... More

Thanks for coming Davis! It was a real pleasure for me to share this day of fishing together: you are a nice fisherman! We lost a big Marlin, it reminds me that fishing is sometimes the school of frustrations lol He really jumped a lot that one!! He deserved his freedom! I hope we will go back together to look for him!! Kind regards Franck

I would leave more stars if I could. Franck is an excellent captain and goes out of his way to make sure your experience is the best. Fishing was slow to start so we tried some different techniques. Right at the end he spotted some birds and chased a Bonita run where we hooked up 3 times in about 30 minutes. I could not recommend Franck more!

Captain Franck made the day for us. He brought us to the fish, followed the birds all day and was gracious to have us on his boat. Made the three of us feel like we had fished our whole lives. Thanks for a spectacular day on the water!!!!

Hi Russ, Thanks for coming fishing! It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and your family! We had a great time — a few fish won the battle, but we landed some too: Sashimi is locked in!

We had a great morning fishing with Franck. I was with my 11-year-old son. Franck is very friendly and professional. We caught several beautiful fish. Excellent spot and great advice from Franck.
