We did 2 days back to back with Capt Pepe and Manny. We switched days due to bad weather coming up for the weekend. Capt Pepe was very quick to communicate and called me before we flew to Puerto Rico. He explained what the weather and wave conditions were going to be so we agreed to move the day.

The first day out we got blanked and no fish, but was still a beautiful day on the water. Capt Pepe and Manny did their best and Manny was great in explaining all about his gear and how things were setup. He’s hands down the best first mate we’ve ever had on a charter.

Day 2 was much better. Within 30 minutes out on the water, we hooked a barracuda. We ended the day with 2 mahi mahi, 1 tuna, saw 2 sailfish (they were fat, dumb, and happy so no bites), and hooked a marlin which got away.

Capt Pepe was an expert in cleaning the fish and gave a great recommendation for a recipe for the tuna.

Overall, a great 2 days on the water - great Captain and First Mate! Looking forward to coming back again in the future!

I came all the way from California, and I’ve been on plenty of fishing trips before—but nothing compares to this one! Captain Jose “Pepe” and his mate Manuel were incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, fun, and beyond helpful. From the moment we stepped on board, we felt truly appreciated, and that made all the difference.

They worked so hard to give us the experience of a lifetime, and they absolutely delivered. It was clear how much they cared about making sure we had a great time. We’re so grateful for their service—it’s something my family and I will never forget.

Thank you, Jose, for also cleaning and cutting the fish for us. We’re enjoying it tonight at the restaurant you recommended, and it’s absolutely delicious! Can’t wait to come back and do it all again. Highly, highly recommended!

Rough seas and no bites at first, but then BAM! What an experience! We told Captain Pepe that we were looking for dinner. So his crew member, Manny, set our tackle up appropriately for Mahi-Mahi and tuna. First catch was a blue marlin, something we were not expecting. What a surprise and an experience to catch something like that. Right after that we caught a decent Mahi and a couple of yellowfin tuna. Really excited that I got to share this experience with my kid. Highly recommended. I will be connecting with Blue Water Fishing PR when we come back. Check out their Facebook and reviews to see all the catches.

Couldn’t ask for a better charter! Captain was hard working looking for fish on what was a difficult day to find them. He was friendly and we talked about the island and fish stories. The mate, Manney was hard working, funny and loves what he does. We did get on fish and caught my 1st Mahi-mahi, which is what I was hoping for! I would highly recommend and will be chartering with them again!

Captain Pepe took my family and I out for our first deep sea fishing trip. Within the first hour we hooked and landed a Mahi Mahi! I was super happy because that was my goal for the trip. My two teenage daughters also caught a couple barracuda. Great overall experience and I absolutely recommend this charter!
