Excellent Experience!  Highly Recommend!  Our group of two couples was booked on the Justeina for 6 hours.  We got picked up from our hotel in Ocho Rios and transported 10 min away to our boat-very handy!.  We were upgraded to ‘Bigg Deal’ from ‘Justeina’ right away.  I’d suggest bringing Jamaican or American currency.  We booked on fishing booker and it gave us a Canadian dollar amount indicating we could pay in Canadian - we brought this amount and the exchange rate was different that day so we were scrambling to find an additional $40 Canadian-not a big deal but we had wished it was clearer on the site - we did email Captain Shelton in advance prior to leaving Canada to clarify this and we did hear back from him but not until the day before the trip after we were already in Jamaica with our Canadian currency in hand.  Also when we go again we’ll be better prepared for motion sickness as 2/4 of us were ill so we shortened our trip by two hours and were back to shore in 4 hours which wasn’t a problem for the crew or us at all….Captain Tony, and Lucky Randy provided an excellent fishing experience and we’d definitely highly recommend them, and we’d go again with them in a heartbeat!  We caught a lovely Blue Marlin - an amazing lifetime experience!  The crew were very knowledgable, helping us to reel it in, conscious of safety, and great fun! 
Thanks so much for a trip of a lifetime Island Dog!!

We charted a 6 hr trip. When we arrived we were pleased to hear that we were taking out the largest boat they have in the fleet. Speedy and the captain a crew were very pleasant. We got underway with rough seas. Unfortunately we had to turn back early due to one of our party getting sick.  The deck had went out of his way to make her comfortable and checked on her almost constantly. He even kept 2 lines in the water while on the way back to try to get us a fish.

I definitely recommend these guys if you are coming to Ocho Rios. I’m sure if we had stayed out the entire time we would have hooked into something.

First, my wife and I are experienced at Deep Sea Fishing, having been to a dozen of more locations between us in the last ten years, some more than once. There were three of us on this trip and the Boat, Gear, and Crew were great. The only reason the Overall Experience rating was four and not five stars is because we only caught one small Jack fish that fit in the little bait cooler. But we know you get shut out once and awhile, that’s just fishing. So maybe a four on experience is a little unfair to the crew, but part of the “overall experience” is catching fish. I do Highly recommend Island Dog.

Had a blast today despite my wife getting seasick within the first 30 minutes. We fished rough seas and they were still able to cater to her needs and generate a successful fishing trip for me simultaneously. We were transferred to a larger boat free of charge due to the weather and I could not have been happier. We landed 5 fantastic Mahi Mahi. It became common to hook 2-3 fish simultaneously. Highly recommend

Had a great time!  Fish weren’t biting so we didn’t catch any but caption & crew worked extremely hard. Tried several different baits. Extremely friendly & still a great day on the water!  Will book again when we come back!
