Mark PetersonRepeat anglerMinnesota, US•Member since 2024•4 trips5.0VerifiedMission Accomplished!
4 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adultsWe wanted to catch fish to eat. Johnny and Joseph had us on fish with the first line down once we got to their first spot. Mission accomplished! The boat is modest but that is exactly what we chose and expected. We prefer to be able to touch the water and their style of boat allows for that. The rods and reels were top notch and worked smoothly. The crew, Johnny and Joseph, were expert at their craft. The wind and waves kicked up some while we were out and they handled the conditions expertly, all while fishing at the same time. We caught plenty of snapper and grouper to feed our families within the first hour of our half-day trip. We then switched to trolling for trophy fish. Even though that approach didn’t produce fish it was great to have time to try. I appreciated the care both Johnny and Joseph showed for the fish we caught but weren’t keepers. They took the time to make sure each fish released was able to swim away under its own power. I recommend Maryola Tours. I will definitely book another trip with them!

3/4 Day Trip • 2 adultsWent out with Daniel and Johnny on 2/7/26. Daniel wanted to leave an hour early, which I like. we were out on the fishing grounds way before everyone else. Started off with Skipjacks, trying to pick yellowfin out of the schools. Ended up with one Yellowfin. My buddy asked to catch bigger fish, immediately hooked into a nice Sail. Did some jigging for red snapper, then went for Cabrera. Hooked into a massive Bull Shark while fishing the bottom for Cabrera, we wanted bigger fish and got it. Daniel put us on the fish and Johnny is uncanny at hooking up. Pura Vida!

3/4 Day Trip • 2 adultsWe had a great time and caught a ton of fish. hooked a goliath grouper but it straightened the hook and spit it after an hour long fight! I told Daniel I wanted to fish topwater instead of trolling and he made it happen. We followed the birds around and hooked a jack crevalle on virtually every cast with a popper! Including a couple huge ones! We spent some time jigging and caught a few other species as well. All in all it was a wonderful trip and I would definitely do it again!

4 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adultsCaught the BIGGEST FISH of my life on this charter. The captain and crew was very friendly, attentive, and well educated. My wife and I fish all the time back home, but nothing like what we caught on this charter. I really suggest anyone looking for an exceptional experience and to catch some BIG FISH and nice fish to eat after the trip you should look no further and book with them. Thanks again for an unforgettable experience.

Shane KobleMassachusetts, US•Member since 20265.0VerifiedGot us on some fish.
4 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adultsWent out this morning on a 4 hour trip. Slow start with no bites at first 4-5 spots. Captian Daniel kept trying and the next few spots we killed it. Many red snapper, a grouper, a tilefish and a few others. trolled around after that and landed a nice skipjack tuna. they cleaned the fish for us and provided a cold beer for the trip back. for the price it absolutely cannot be beat. thank you for a great day and plenty to eat for dinner!
Response from Charter operatorSounds like a great morning! Thank you!

The whole of Central America celebrates its independence from Spain on September 15th. Unsurprisingly, this is quite a big deal, and you can expect happy crowds, celebrations, music, and dancing.
