Trip started out with a 40 minute wait to get gas. Cannot believe this wasn’t handled prior to us getting in boat. If you fish, you know that the first hour is precious. Started trolling, did a big circle out of the inlet for two hours. Zero birds, don’t think the captain had a fishfinder graph. He had a portable gps, no sonar. Blind trolling. Switched to jigging. Every pole had broken tips. Missing 6-8” of sensitivity when bottom fishing for small fish = alot of misses. The guide eyes that were on the rods were rusted out and had gaps such that the line would get out of the guide itself. I personally had to tighten every reel handle so they would fall off. The line in the reels had so much memory that it was constantly coiling on itself. The kids got frustrated. We fished a box of frozen squid, you be the judge. Our mate was a very nice and polite older gentleman, but he wasn’t enough to make up for the condition of the equipment.

We did a six hour charter, which ended up being the perfect amount of time. Everyone caught something, with the catch of the day being a 15 lbs mutton grouper. A few tips: (1) add the sandwich, fruit and drinks package (just ask after you book; (2) bring cash to tip the mate — he works hard; (3) bring sunscreen, hat, and long sleeves as the sun is relentless, but you can also go inside the cabin to escape it. Overall, we’d highly recommend booking your trip with 5Gs.
Ezra! We are happy you and your family had a great time out! Cheers to a great and healthy rest of the year! Hook up again soon!🎣🤿🐢🏖
Capt. Frank and Karis were great! Fish weren’t biting much but we did get a barracuda. My son enjoyed reeling him in. I would highly recommend 5G Charters. We also purchased the onboard catering which was amazing. Sandwiches, chips, fruit, soft drinks and beer for everyone. Well worth it!
Allyson, the weather did put up a fight this week but it was a pleasure having you and your crew onboard! Stay safe and have a great rest of your year 🎣🤿🐢🐖🏖️
Best fishing trip ever…we caught several off-shore fish, Mahi-mahi, Barracuda, Wahoo, and Bull-sharks! Great crew and great service! We r booked to go back again in December.
Immediately after trip, we ate at a restaurant called Poop Deck- They will fillet and cook ur fish, they do a great job.

Raymond!!! We totally enjoyed watching you both have a great day out! Looking forward to hooking up with you again reel soon! Stay well🎣🤿🐢🐖🏖️
7 of us had a wonderful time on Capt. Pedro’s boat. We broke our “no fish” curse immediately and were able to fish for big fish and bottom fish. We ended with snorkeling. The captain and crew were amazing and so flexible and helpful. They also cleaned our catch which we ate immediately after. We have been fishing in the Bahamas many times and this was by far the best trip we have had. We highly recommend 5G and Capt. pedro and his crew.
It was a pleasure hooking up with you and the crew Nicole! Until next time….Stay well! 🎣🤿🐢🏖
