    There are no words, but I will try…

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    We have had great fishing days in our past, but this was easily a trip that eclipsed all others. Our Captain, Ariel, and his first mate, el Gay, were very friendly, top notch guys. Eager smiles and wanted nothing more than to get us on the fish, and have a great time. From the moment we stepped on board, a cold water to drink, riding up top with Ariel to enjoy the view, and his mate, prepping the deck and gear. Now for tge part that was so amazing, it almost seems surreal. First fish on, a mahi mahi… 10 seconds later, another, my wife in the chair reeling in her first ever ocean fish, and its a double header, both of us landing a mahi mahi at the same time. The reat of our 6 hour voyage was almost a blur, fish after fish, like Ariel could sense where they were… so many we were just cheering and losing track of time. In the small breaks between fish, cold drinks, snacks and a sandwich, thats all we had time for…. then a hoot and holler, another fish on the line… they were cheering us on constantly, and maybe were even having more fun than we were!!! All said and done…. we landed 32 mahi mahi, and 4 barracuda. we also had 4 fish that broke the leaders or got off, right as we were pulling them out of the water, “leader wrapped”. 40 fish at the boat in 6 hours….. it was a dream come true. we ran out of bait, there were so many hits, that el Gay was filleting fish, and getting more bait OUT of the fish we had landed!!! At one time we had 4 fish on lines at the same time…. I’ve never seen that before!!! Two of the most amazing people I’ve met, in the Dominican, treated us like more than clients, “Family” isnt even a strong enough word for how well they treated us. 6 hours of pure laughing, cheering, smiles, fish, encouragement, and camaraderie, that we will NEVER forget. Number of fish aside, BEST FISHING EXPERIENCE EVER.

    Exceptional Trip

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    captain and crew were absolutely fantastic. they worked hard from the start to get us on fish, we continued to move from spot to spot, stayed where the fish were moved when they left. entire team very friendly and accommodating, they let us fish, not burdened with rules or barking commands, stayed fun the entire day. over 6 hours caught 10x mahi, 4x Cuda, they fileted what we needed and left the rest for them to enjoy. Highly recommend this boat, will absolutely go with them again next time in DR.

    Some days are better than others

    6 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    We had a great experience with Fishing Pro Charter – Divina 35'! From start to finish, everything was well organized and professional. We were picked up promptly at our resort and taken to the marina, where Francisco greeted us. He explained how the day would go, answered our questions, and introduced us to our mate, Guy. Guy then took us by a small boat out to the Divina 35', where we met our captain, Carlos. Unfortunately, Mother Nature wasn't exactly on our side. It was windy and rainy, and my daughter and I were seasick for almost the entire trip. The crew couldn't have been more understanding. They even offered to take us back to shore, but we wanted to stick it out so the boys could keep fishing. Guy was absolutely incredible—he checked on us constantly, made sure we were as comfortable as possible, and even "dumped our bucket" more times than I'd like to admit! His kindness and sense of humor made a rough day much easier. They had snacks, sandwiches, and drinks for us. Only my husband took advantage of some beverages. Even though the fishing was slow, my son was excited to catch a fish! That's fishing—you have to remember that no charter can guarantee a full boat, and sometimes the conditions just aren't in your favor. To top it all off, instead of taking us back to the marina, they arranged for a water taxi to drop us off right at our resort, which was such a nice touch and a perfect ending to the day. While I hope for calmer seas next time, I would absolutely book with Captain Carlos, Guy, and Francisco again. Their professionalism, customer service, and genuine care for their guests made all the difference. Highly recommend!

    Worst day is still better than best day at work.

    6 Hour Trip • 4 adults

    The fish weren’t cooperative, but thats beyond anyone’s control. We still had a great time with Captain Carlos and Mate Eli. They did everything they could to put us on the fish, but, thats why its called “fishing”, not “catching”. The boat and equipment were nice, and we did manage to catch a few Mahi Mahi. Would we have liked to catch more? Hell yes!! Do we blame the crew? Hell No!!!! I’m already looking forward to my next trip on the Divina with Carlos and Eli. Make sure you ask Francisco about cooking your catch, right off the boat and into the restaurant. Mahi Mahi three ways. Even my “anti-fish” son loved it. Of the six of us, 4 had never been deep sea fishing, and 2 had never held a rod in their lives. Everyone had a great time and we’re already talking about “next time”. Book the Divina, you won’t be disappointed, regardless of the catch!!

    we had an overall beautiful experience. The weather was great. The Captain was awesome and we caught a tremendous amount of mahi with maybe the biggest one being a 30 pound bull and a total of a round thirth mahi.
