Full Day Trip

Started off the day with a blue marlin, then after a few hours caught a dorado, then another hour and 3 dorados all at the same time! It was awesome! Few more hours and a good nap and the action was on more than ever! Ended the day with 1 blue marlin, 11 dorado, and 3 wahoo! Guides were excellent and definitely knew their stuff! 15 total with one that got off at the boat.

Captain Manuel and Jose first Mate went above and beyond in getting us our first catch of Mahi-Mahi. They also took it to a local restaurant after the trip and it was prepared perfect and very delicious. We could not of asked for a better trip. I would highly recommend them. We can’t wait to go again! Ron, Joyce, Kevin and Michelle

Had an awesome day on the water with captain GG and Jordan. Started off slow but the fish came on hard. Got 9 mahi mahi, a yellowfin and a baricuda. Even had 3 mahi at the same time. Great charter, great crew and if your going to puerto plata you need to fish with these guys. Thank for such a great day.

Was out with my whole family. Had a very fun excursion. Caught a huge wahoo and had a couple of other bites! As I have fished Brett’s much everywhere, I would rate this team as one of the best I went out to sea with!
