Hi Bruce

Thank you for the great review — and especially for your flexibility with the weather. When the port closes, it’s never ideal, but we’re glad the communication helped and that Sunday worked out well in the end.

That first 30-minute fight sounds like a serious one. The ones that break off are always the hardest to forget. Still, landing two barracudas and getting more action is a solid day on the water.

Snorkeling off the Tulum Ruins and seeing turtles and rays is always a special way to finish.

We’re also happy you liked the equipment — we do our best to keep everything in top shape. And that mahi fillet moment with the other crew? That’s the spirit out there.

We’ll be happy to have you back anytime. The reef will be waiting.

Hi Jack

Wow — what a review! Thank you so much for taking the time to share this.
We’re truly happy to hear this was your favorite ocean fishing experience, that means a lot. Captain Robert will absolutely love the comparison… Steve Irwin meets Chris Pontius meets David Attenborough might be the best description he’s ever received haha!

He’s incredibly passionate about the Caribbean reef, the local history, and of course dialing in the right bait and trolling technique to stay consistently hooked up. Sounds like those barracudas showed up ready to play — and that 5-foot, 65-pound cuda is a serious catch. What a day.

Thank you again for trusting us with your day on the water. We’ll be ready for round two whenever you’re back.

Tight lines and see you soon! 🎣

Thanks a lot for taking the time to share such a detailed review. Really appreciate it. Erwin and Felipe will be super happy to hear your words — they really do work nonstop out there to try to get you on fish, especially in November when the offshore options are limited.

Barracuda are usually the most active this time of year, so it’s great you landed two and had those extra hits as well. And yes, we keep trolling even for “bottom fishing” because anchoring or dropping lines directly on the reef isn’t allowed here (and we also try to protect the reef as much as possible).

About the hook-setting — totally get what you’re used to. Here we set it first so we don’t lose the fish, since the bite can be quick and we want to make sure you get the rod with something on it. But I hear you, and thanks for sharing your preference.

Really glad you came out with us, and hopefully next time you visit we’ll be in the prime season with more species running. You’re always welcome back onboard! 🎣🌊
