We had booked Marlin Fever because of all of the good reviews related to Capt. Anthony Perez, but we had to postpone our original date due to rough seas.
I was led to believe that we would be fishing with the same boat and crew during the entire rescheduling, even the morning of our trip. After waiting 30 min on the dock for Marlin Fever to arrive, Capt. Perez texted me, or someone from the company pretending to be Perez, saying they were โon their wayโ. Then a young guy working for the charter company arrived and told us that we were fishing with a different boat with a less experienced captain. Waiting to tell us until we were standing on the dock was clearly done to prevent us from cancelling our trip and is bad business. Any angler knows that having a skilled and experienced captain is the most important element of a successful day fishing.
The bait-and-switch that Atlantida Punta Cana- Marlin Fever used on us left a very bad taste in my mouth. The next time I charter a boat in Punta Cana, it will be with a different outfit. If you decide to book with this company, confirm that you are fishing with the captain that is advertised on the Fishing Booker app, donโt assume they will be forthcoming.
We caught a couple barracuda during our 6 hr charter. Wish we could have hooked some dorado, wahoo, or marlin but we couldnโt make it happen. The crew were good guys and did their best to put us on the fish.
