    Epic Trip with my sons and dad

    Full Day offshore trip • 5 adults

    Captain Emilio and his crew were top notch. They are pros who were able to find the billfish. my boys caught about a 200lb Blue Marlin and soke Sailfish. it was their first timr landing billfish and thanks to Captain Emilio and the Bushwacker crew, we had an incredibke experience we will remember forver. They were all cool guys who explained everything and got really excited whehn we found the fish and stayed laser focused throughout the whole “fish landing” experience with my boys. Highly reccomend!!!

    Good day on the Water

    Full Day offshore trip • 5 adults • 1 child

    We had a party of 6 fish with Capt. Emilio and crew Feb. 13th out of Playa Flamingo. While the bite was slow in that day, we raised 5 Sails and a Marlin while landing 3. Food and drinks were good and plentiful and I was impressed with the captain’s techniques and adjustments to raise the bite. The only thing that would have made this a great trip was a more cooperative bite from the fish but that’s just fishing. Will book again when we’re in the area and recommend to anyone wanting to fish out of that region.

    Reported catch:
    Sailfish

    Great day with Bushwacker and Captain Emilio

    Half Day Trip – Inshore • 3 adults

    Very happy with our excursion. Did a 4-hour inland trip and caught a bunch of bonita and skipjack tuna. Would book again. Crew and captain were friendly and relaxed.

    Caught 2 Blue Marlin and a Mahi! It was a GREAT day on the water! Emilio, Jose, and Carlos are the best!

What's biting with Bushwacker in Playa Flamingo

The rains are at their heaviest in September, taking the humidity through the roof. Escape offshore to get some air or jump in the water after battling Snook and Roosterfish inshore.
