First mate had to keep checking the bait because of the grass that was floating. Had a nice day a little choppy but we stayed out for four hours.

The Rusty Hook
I wouldn't suggest ever taking small children on a private fishing charter and thats why I opted for not good for children. Teens who are familiar with fishing and respect the sport yes that would be fine.
I would recommend Alfonso regardless of the time of year. Knowledge has no time limits

I think this is a solid spot with active fish. Be prepared for choppy waters but good fishing.

Wait until late April or even May if fishing for Mahi or marlin is your priority. This was a great family trip with snorkeling and thrill of fishing for big fish for our kids. It’s all about luck this time of year.

Of course kids could be on the boat they might get bored, I wouldn't bring little ones on board, but that may just be me. Just remember that there are no guarantees ? I think we were one of the only boats that caught something today, there is some luck involved. Sometimes the fish just aren't there.

Great day on the water even if fish are not biting. The snorkeling is really great and Balta and Paolo were fantastic hosts!

They help you a ton so no worries about having to bate your hook or filet your fish. The water was beautiful and we tried a variety of fishing. The most successful was bottom fishing

The bill fish bite was not good but the captain put us on the trigger fish which were a good fight and plenty of action.

Absolutely! Yes. Captain and his crew were fantastic. Very friendly and helpful. The ceviche he made after the catch was outstanding. Highly recommend!

It’s not the major season in February but we caught a bunch of fish off the bottom. Always love getting out on the ocean with a rod in the water.

Go for a3/4 or full day. This will give you opportunity to try a few different types of fishing. While some people enjoy trolling for the bigger fish, there might not be enough time for everyone to catch a large fish, so split your day up a bit. spend part of the of the day bottom fishing so that everyone can catch lots of fish of all sizes.

Be patient it’s called fishing for a reason. If you have a great captain like I did he will make it happen. Also know the odds of catching the type of fish you want to catch that way you won’t be disappointed if you don’t catch it. Timing is everything. But as fishing goes a catch is a catch. Now let’s go fishing!!!

If you don't expect to catch a Marlin, you will be quite satisfied with the trip. Many other species are available. I had dinner for 4 for 4 days!

If you are expecting big fish in January this is not the time to go. But if you just want to catch any type fish then you should be okay

Balihoo Boat
Use a hat and sunglasses, sunscreen is a must or bring a long sleeve shirt. No flip flops and if you want to snorkel buy your own equipment at a local store, especially the mouth piece. A water proof bag is a good idea if you’re going to be out all day.

Start your boat ride with something for motion sickness like a good Scotch, and have fun!

We went during what is admittedly a low part of the year for production. That's okay. We accomplished what we set out to do and cannot complain one bit.
