My mom and I spent a beautiful day on the water with Captain Dillan and his first mate Cailom. We spent some time trolling the water for fish but didnโt find any. We then moved spots and they showed is how to jig for fish. That was way harder than I expected! We ended up casting our lines, and that was the key. Success almost immediately! We caught and released triggerfish at least 8 times. We had never been reef fishing before, so it was fun to learn all the different fishing techniques. Cold drinks, including locally brewed beers, were provided. The waters were calm and we had a great time fishing!

thank you Elaine.
First timers Grampa, Son in law, and Grandson. Capt. Dillan & First Mate Chalem cheerfully arrived promptly at 7:45am with boat, bait & gear ready to go. He explained our strategy as we were motoring out to open water where tackle was rigged and trolling commenced. First reel screamed at 8:40am as the line unwound faster than speeding bullet. The fight was on! Grandson was first up on the crank as Capt. Dillan barked constructive encouragement and Chalem was clearing the deck in anticipation of successfully landing whatever was on the end of our line. Although he is a strong lad, Grandsonโs arm was spent and our fish was still in command. Son in law then jumped in the crank seat with fresh muscle and started to tire the fish and gain some line, but he too, could not overcome the opposing force under the sea. Finally, when the fish was tired & reaching the end of his rope, Grampa took the hot seat for the final approach. After a few spectacular leaps out of the water, Capt. Dillan hauled in the catch with his gaff hook. A 40lb+ Wahoo! Chalem subdued the thrashing mouthful of teeth with his bat and our prize was immediately packed in at the ready ice chest. While our adrenaline was still pumping and high 5โs were still slapping, Capt. Dillan & Chalem were preparing the rigs for the next opportunity. When we returned to the docks, Capt. Dillan filleted & cleaned a large tail section for us and our evening dinner was grilled Wahoo with rice, beans, Family and great stories! We highly recommend Seablu Charters with Capt. Dillan & First Mate Chalem. Ya

Thank you Mr. Pete. my pleasure taking you all out. ๐โ๏ธ
Capt Dillon and 1st Mate Cailom are the professional real deal! Highly recommend booking them. They simply get you on fish quickly and efficiently maximizing line time in water where it counts. We brought in 2 very large Wahoos; first one in boat within 35 minutes. Also boated a very nice size Barracuda. To top it all off, we caught a variety of smaller (not necessarily small though) table fish from the reefs and open water to include Blackfin Tuna and Rainbow Runners. We had a fabulous time learning a great deal about the art and science of ocean fishing to include, deep sea trolling and drift fishing, and some great anchored reef and harbor fishing. Both Dillon and Cailom are very approachable, great natured and forthcoming. The stories and instruction were every bit as valuable as the productivity todayโa great memorable experience! We are coming back. Mike & Nery Grieco, 10 Feb 26 Colorado

Thank you Luz. Appreciate the kind words.
From the moment we booked, the captain, Dillon, was incredibly communicative and on top of everything. The weather in Cayman was a little iffy on the day we were supposed to head out, but Dillon stayed in constant contact and worked with us to make sure we still had the best possible trip.
Yes, it rainedโbut honestly, it didnโt matter at all. Dillon and his crew made the boat feel warm, welcoming, and fun the entire time. Their positive attitude never wavered, and they truly made the experience worth it.
And the fishing?! We caught the BIGGEST wahoo, and it was absolutely delicious. You can tell this crew is passionate about what they doโtheyโre dedicated to their craft, and it shows in every detail.
10/10 would do it again. Amazing time from start to finish.

Thanks Megan. Had a great time with you both. Enjoy your fresh wahoo ceviche tonight. ๐
Captain Dillan and First Mate Cailon were on time at pickup, friendly and knowledgeable. Got us on fish in a tougher season. My sonโs first deep sea trip. I got a nice Wahoo. Since he didnโt hook a bigger fish they set him up to reel in a nice Tarpon while cleaning fish. Very thoughtful, and will make a lasting memory for him. Thank you my friends.
Thank you Nathan. ๐โ๏ธ
