We had a great day of fishing!! They tried to make sure every person on board caught a fish, and were very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. I brought my dad, who is 80, and the crew was amazing helping him out! Thank you
Did an afternoon trip with these guys. Caught a few snapper but they were all tiny nothing great. Went on to go look for rooster fish at the rocks and nothing was around. I understand it’s fishing and sometimes the fish aren’t there.
We came up to a school of bonito and maybe some yellowfin. I had a good sized one on for a bit till it broke off. They told me I tightened the drag too much and caused it to break. But the line didn’t break, it was their poorly tied knot that came loose. Another crazy thing they do is they tie a jig and lure to a snap swivel connecting to the main line 😂😂. That’s a big no no and screws up your casting distance. I accidentally got the snap swivel stuck in the guides a couple times and the “captain” got mad. I told him they should tie the braid to the mono and he got mad for me giving him advice. He said he does this every day (obviously not very well) and he told his deck hand that I’m a “stupid gringo.” For casting and using jigs you should always tie the braid to the mono. But these guys aren’t smart enough to know how to do that but they call me stupid. Their gear is old and in poor shape and the braid on the reels we used is old and brittle.
I have the same job has them back home Working on a fishing charter and I’m actually a USCG licensed captain. This guy isn’t. They also didn’t show us where any life jackets were or any other safety equipment. Also the few fish we didn’t catch, they put them in a buck with no ice just to let them bake in the sun. No thanks. So I didn’t get to keep any fish.

I want to tell you that I don’t know why you are a captain, you don’t know anything, you can’t even stand on the deck of the boat and you should know that working with locals means that you learn new things and to catch big and good fish I don’t need such expensive equipment and the big fish was your mistake. You are a bad captain. You may have a license but you don’t have good knowledge.You know what you have studied, I know what I have experienced, and Chlecos save lives. There are 12 in the front where the blue taxidermy box is. My nationality certificate asks me for them, so don’t say what you don’t know.

The captan and crew were very friendly and put us on some good fish. To top off a great day they stopped at a beautiful snorkeling spot were we enjoyed a swim with beautiful fish and a gentle nurse shark.
We booked a half day charter leaving at 1 pm. We hooked a sailfish before 2 pm. All total, we hooked 5 sailfish and landed 1. Also caught a Mahi Mahi and a blackfin tuna. It was an awesome day of fishing!!!
I like it when a fishing trip goes very well and we are waiting for you again here.
