Great fishing day

May 18, 2024 Ponta Delgada

Good day, Today, our team embarked on a half-day fishing excursion with our esteemed French colleagues. While the initial phase proved challenging due to the scarcity of fish, a remarkable turn of events occurred, resulting in a successful and enjoyable fishing experience. The reels began to sound, indicating the presence of fish, and everyone present expressed their delight. We skillfully managed to reel in the fish within approximately one hour. Despite this initial success, we encountered another strike, but unfortunately, the fish managed to escape. Nevertheless, considering the duration of our trip, which spanned four hours, the overall outcome was satisfactory. We look forward to the opportunity to reunite with our esteemed colleagues in the near future. Best regards

Outstanding day fishing.

May 16, 2024 Ponta Delgada

Good day everyone. Yesterday, we had a successful fishing trip where we caught four tuna. Today, we returned to the same spot with high hopes. As soon as we arrived, we were thrilled to experience a double strike. The fishing commenced, and within four hours, we managed to catch two more tuna, which put up a great fight. We observed an abundance of tuna in the surrounding area. I would like to express my gratitude to all of you for your wonderful company. It was an absolute pleasure meeting you. I wish you all the very best in your future endeavors.

A tuna broke my lure, but I still manage

May 12, 2024 Ponta Delgada

Hey there! We had a busy day out on the water. We went a bit further out from the shore and found a lot of tuna. They weren't easy to catch, but we saw them and a bunch of birds around. The biggest tuna broke our lure, which was really weird. But we still managed to catch an albacore. It wasn't bad, but I'm hoping for better luck next time. Catch ya later!

Nice BigGame afternoon.

Good day everyone. I am pleased to inform you that we have commenced the fishing season with a successful four-hour trip, resulting in the capture of a small bigeye tuna.

So Pedro and his deck hand were great guys. They spoke excellent English. The English was important to my buddy and I because we speak no Portuguese but still love to learn about the local fishing and hear stories about the region. They did not disappoint. The bad thing is that we caught no fish (other than one small barracuda I jigged up at the end). I fish blue water with some regularity and know that it’s always a gamble but… this time felt pretty bleak. We trolled for about 4.5 hours,... More

Hello Thomas, Thank you for your words. unfortunately, on the last days, Big Game fishing has been bad, and Tunas ran out and has been difficult to find. Hope better days will come soon for tuna fishing, but we always do our best. It was very nice to meet you and anything just contact us. All the best. Pedro Rodrigues .

My brother-in-law and I had a great 1/2 day big game fishing with Pedro and Luis on the Mare nostrum. They worked really hard to find the fish, and we each ended up catching a beautiful big-eye tuna. They were great guys, fun to hang with when there were no fish on the line and really helpful when we were hooked up.

Headed out for tuna and marlin. A hard day fishing but that was the same for all boats. Loads of bird activity and everything looked good for a fish or two but that is game fishing for you. Captain and mate were great ....wouldn’t hesitate booking with them again ....you can’t win em all😁

Dear Miles, Thank you for the great review! It was a pleasure having you and your son on board, and we’re glad we got to share some quality time together, even though the fishing wasn’t at its best. Unfortunately, the last few days have been a bit challenging, and you were unlucky this time. Tuna can be tricky, and sometimes they just don’t bite—that’s the nature of fishing. We’re hopeful that conditions will improve soon, and we’d love to have you back for another try. More
