    Great crew and we caught fish too!

    Half day reef fishing • 4 adults

    Our group of four fished a half day, not with Rogel, but with Dilzon and Joe. We specified that we only wanted to do bottom/reef fishing so that we could all fish at the same time, and did not care to do any trolling. Our group had been on too many trolling trips in the past that were little more than boat rides. They were willing to accommodate us and it worked out well. We were all able to fish at the same time, and caught a variety of species, including enough for two great meals. Additional highlights were a 4-1/2 or 5 foot nurse shark and a beautiful queen triggerfish.

    Reported catch:
    Yellowtail Snapper

    Very knowledgeable!

    Half day reef fishing • 2 adults

    Captain Sanchez took us right to the fish and moved around to keep up with the fish. We caught and kept 36 fish consisting of various snapper and yellow tail. He baited our lines and cleaned our fish to cook back at our rental. He is a very experienced captain and we enjoyed our time with him. We had a great new year and even shared beers with him at the new years celebration. We will definitely be booking him for more adventures. He does his best to ensure you are having a great time. Can't say enough good things about him. Highly recommend!

    Reef Fishing

    Half day reef fishing • 2 adults

    Capt. Rogel was on time and ready to go. My son 13yrs old and I had an excellent half day reef fishing. We are both avid fisherman and know how to handle a rod and reel. Rogel put us on a lot of fish, snapper specifically. We apprecited how if the spot didnt feel right Capt Rogel would move quickly to another spot. He filleted the fish for us after it was caught, and we had a great lunch at Rum Dog where they cook up your catch!

    Reported catch:
    Red Snapper
    Mangrove Snapper
    Mutton Snapper
    Lane Snapper

    Great trip!

    Full Day Beach Cook • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Rogel and Dilson were awesome guides for the day. Dilson dove for conchs so we could have conch cevice with lunch. This trip was for my 11 year old daughter as she loves to fish. We caught about 15 fish, mostly snapper, and barracuda. Lunch was delicious. We loved the day so much that we went out for another day of fishing before we left.

    Great crew, amazing fishing, and many memories. Caught many fish including an huge barracuda. The capitan and crew were very funny and good. The highlight was the barracuda. The trip was best for my son who caught the barracuda. Before booking you should be ready to catch many fish and have a good time.

    We unfortunately had cloudy weather and wind which makes it a little harder, but Dilson put us on fish! He knows what he’s doing and we caught 19 fish between myself and my wife. Request Dilson if you can!

    The trip was so-so. Rogel never really talked or explained where we were going or why. The first hour was spent looking for sardines for bait, then we made approximately five stops around the reef. A few bites here and there and maybe 12-15 fish caught between the four of us. I understand the fish aren’t always biting, but it would have been nice if Rogel spent a little time engaging with us

    Captain Rogel was timely picking two us up and nothing but professional on our half day reef fishing trip. If bait came off, it was promptly put on and back in the water in seconds. Caught numerous fish and he cleaned the few that we took home to cook. Delicious Red and Yellow Tail Snapper Highly recommend Captain Rogel.
