It was just ok, two charters caught 1 sailfish. Could have done that state side for a lot less. Jaco fish trip was better with 4 sailfish releases.

Go offshore in July. We didn’t have much luck inshore, but certainly did offshore.

It’s expensive to fish here. You either wanna just fish or you want luxury. You pick.

The parking can be tricking so give yourself some time to figure it out so you’re not late.

If you are prone to motion sickness, take Dramamine the night before and morning of the trip.

Bring rain gear if the rainy season lingers longer than it should have like it did for us.

Patience!!! It's called fishing not catching. Be ready to troll for hours it's just how it's done.

Would definitely recommend. Trolling was slow but fishing off the rocks was insane. Crazy action!

If you really want that big catch, increase your odds by going during the prime fishing seasons.

Wear a longsleeve shirt, sunglasses, and a hat for extra sun protection. Most all people do.

Do not go to catch, go to fish. It’s the experience that matters and catching is the reward.

Find a local captain. Bring some big poppers and top lures. White feather jigs are also good.
