If you’re in San Juan and wanna have a unique fishing experience, book a Fishing Trip with Backwater Tarpon Guide Service…..Best in San Juan!!!! If you get a go with Abi…tell him you wanna fish the “Soup”, you want be sorry!!!! Abi and the other Guides are 1st Class and will work hard to put you on Fish…..Gotta give them a try, we checked off our Bucket List a Big Tarpon apiece on a 4hr Trip!

Epic day on the water! Three of us went out and we got a shot at 3 and another one smacked but was never hooked. These tarpon are the perfect size for a good fight 40-50 pounders. I got one in the boat but my other two buddies (both who rarely fish) missed theirs. One buddy got to fight his for 10 minutes before being broken off though. All in all the perfect day on the water and the captain, crew, and gear were top notch!

My three boys, my father-in-law, and I all had an amazing time fishing for tarpon with Capt Clery.  Capt knew the perfect spots and put us right on the fish.  My 8 and 10yr-olds both caught multiple fish and I caught the biggest tarpon (and overall fish) I have ever caught.  My 6yr old didn’t participate but still had a great time (despite being hot which we knew it would be). Capt was very nice, professional, and taught us newbies how to catch the silver kings.  100% recommend, would do... More

Fished 4th of July with Captain Abi. We hooked into 5 Tarpon within a 4 hour AM trip and were able to land three of the five. It was our first trip for tarpon and captain gave great tips to make sure we landed them. Highly recommend!!

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Capt Fernando. He is very passionate about his job and cares about his customers. His knowledge of tarpon fishing and explaining why things are doing a specific way made our trip very enjoyable. We managed to catch 4 tarpon and had 2 right beside the boat but got off before Capt Fernando could grab them. I highly recommend this company and Capt Fernando.
