Save your $ buy a rod and fish elsewhere! Taken to a filthy canal for 4 hours of the 5 hour trip told it was a protected area catch and release only. Advertisement said you keep what you catch. Not that we caught anything because we barely moved even though Captain kept saying if no bites in 20 minutes we would move but didnโt!. Finally last hour moved to open ocean. $375 later Captain wanted a tip after being mad if a line broke or tangled with another. We didnโt care that we caught no fish, just cared it was a rip off! Best part was catching the bait with a net prior to fishing.

Hi Mrs. Rodriguez. Thank you for taking your time to post your review. We are very sorry that this trip was no up to your expectations. I would like to take this opportunity to clarify certain points. We do not fish in a protected area, however, as clearly stated in our business description, most of our target species are catch and release due to government regulations. I think there is no place in the US that allow to keep a tarpon. I disagree with your description of our back channel waters as โfilthyโ, since it is one of our main fishing grounds full of wildlife and fish including, manatees, turtles, caymans and even dolphins, as well as all of our target species. As you can see on our photos in our business profile, that is one of our main fishing grounds. Unfortunately, your trip was one of those slow fishing days that always exist in Fishing. Although we have a catch ratio of over 95% of our trips, we do have some days that we do not catch fish. This was one of those days. You can see all of our other reviews documenting the successful fishing trips and the type of captains we have. We hope you can give us another opportunity to show you the great fishing that we have in our Island.

Captain was totally disengaged and seem not interested in the trip. Not one bite the whole trip. D
