    Top quality experience for the casual angler!

    Nearshore (PM) & beach • 3 adults • 2 children

    Elliot and Jarril (first mate) were a great team and gave my sons and I a pleasent experience off shore fishing; when trolling didn’t produce, we switched to jigging and caught jack and grouper. Elliott kept the boat stocked with plenty of freshwater, sports drinks, and healthy snacks. They recommended and communicated with a local restaurant who prepared our catch for us - gourmet sea-to-table same day. (reliable, on-time, communicative, fluent english, personable, great crew)

    Pelagic chase best experience ever

    Full Day Trip – Pelagic Chase

    From start to finish, Capt. Giraud and his crew delivered an incredible offshore experience. The boat was well-equipped, the gear top-notch, and the knowledge of the fishing grounds was unmatched. We had constant action on the water, chasing pelagic species in the deep blue, and landed some trophy fish that made the trip unforgettable. Capt. Giraud’s professionalism, energy, and passion for fishing made the day not only productive but also fun and comfortable for everyone on board. Whether you’re after Marlin, Tuna, or Mahi, he knows exactly where to put you on the fish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a true sportfishing adventure in Puerto Rico.

    Reported catch:
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
    White Marlin
    Blue Marlin
    Little Tunny (False Albacore)

    Highlight of our trip!

    Nearshore (PM) & beach • 6 adults

    We booked last minute with Capt. Elliot and Don and I’m so glad they were able to take our group!!Their boat was so nice, with places for all of us to sit. They had us picked up in the parking lot and taken by golf carts to their boat, provided lots of cold drinks but most importantly they also provided 4 hours of fun for our avid fishermen sons. They are both experienced, educated and fun to talk to about all things fishing. All of our boys had multiple catches, even landing a barracuda! We had a blast and what a high to end our trip to PR on. I will for sure be booking with them again if we make it back to Puerto Rico!! Thank you Capt. Elliot and Don!!! You truly made our trip!!!!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you so much for the incredible 5-star review! We’re so happy we could host your group on short notice and help make your time at the Yacht Club Puerto Rico truly unforgettable. Capt. Elliot and Don loved having you aboard, and we’re thrilled the boys had such a fun and successful day out on the water. We’re all about creating memorable experiences, and it means the world to know we helped end your trip on a high note. We can’t wait to welcome you back the next time you’re in Puerto Rico!

Great offshore action today out of Yacht Club Puerto Rico East. We spotted solid marks and went on the chase, hooking into a powerful wahoo that put on an impressive run. Fast trolling speeds, clean water, and textbook conditions made for an exciting fight and an unforgettable moment on the water. This is the kind of bite that keeps you coming back—pure adrenaline offshore.

Offshore Action with Bent Rods ??

Jan 8, 2026 • Ceiba
Headed offshore with mixed conditions but steady action. Multiple rods went off and the crew stayed busy working fish at the same time. Great teamwork onboard, solid bites, and an exciting day on the water. Conditions were sporty but fishable, making for a fun and memorable trip offshore.

Flat Seas Offshore – Morning Tuna Action

Jan 8, 2026 • Ceiba
Flat calm seas made for a perfect offshore morning. Marked solid bait and fish on the sounder early, and the tuna bite followed shortly after. Great conditions, steady action, and an all-around productive AM trip offshore out of Puerto Rico. Excellent day to be on the water with smooth runs and tight lines.
