Trip Summary

Fishing the FADs off Curaçao can be next level — especially when you’ve got live bait in the tank. We had a killer day catching pelagic species like it was nothing. Wahoo, mahi, and nonstop action on the drift. Big shoutout to the awesome father–daughter duo onboard — serious teamwork and all smiles at the end!

What a way to end the trip — no complaints here! ?
