I spoke to Captain Mario before the trip and asked that we not troll. He was very accommodating to our request! We spent the first part of the trip chasing birds (my favorite way to fish)! We then went closer to shore to find schooling roosterfish. We caught Jack Crevalle, Skip Jack, Bonito, and roosterfish. The boat was very comfortable and clean. First Mate Alex was extremely helpful and always right there when needed. Overall it was a great experience and I would highly recommend Burton III... More

We caught Jack Caravelle about 35 pounds and 9 other fish about 4-5 pounds each. East to find, easy to to contact Captain Mario ,Alex was our co captain not sure what his correct title is but he was great . They moved until we found fish and helped when I needed help. I highly recommend this Captain.  Water was smooth and ride was enjoyable in the early morning hour and we saw several sea turtles! 5 Stars!!!!!! Oh and the large iguanas are beautiful !

Capt. Mario was extremely flexible with our cruise ship schedule and communicated with us the entire time. He had bait fish and gear ready so as not to waste time.

None of the other boats around us were catching anything but WHAM! Capt. Mario has another 38” Jack running and gunning!! He answered all of.our questions, was... More

This was by far the best experience I have had. Mario was by far the best captain I have been with. He knows the ocean very well.

We spent thirty minutes reeling in fish after fish. Definitely knows what he’s doing and gave us our money’s worth. If we go back he will be our first choice. He turned a... More

Mario is everything you want in a Captain. We did the 6 hour fish and snorkel combo….DO IT!!! We quickly had fish on once the lines were dropped. Even with 6 lines out and two fish on at once (which happened MULTIPLE times this trip), Mario handled everything smoothly with no tangles, a master of his craft! Multiple species caught, snorkeling, and got to see humpbacks, dolphins, sea turtles from the boat. Amazing trip with an incredible Captain! Excited to come back and fish again with... More
