After doing lots of research I decided to charter blue tail and it was the best decision I made. My wife and I had the best fishing day. Captain Juan and his crew knew exactly where to find the fish and what to use to catch them. My wife and I caught 7 Dorados that we will be taking home. I highly recommend blue tail for anyone else that is looking for a fishing charter.

We had a nice day despite the fish not biting much. We ended up with a couple of Mackerels and a couple Dorados. I was impressed with how well the captain navigated the rough seas. The boat was spotless, and he had a feet sanitizing station and plenty of hand sanitizer to protect against Covid. They also had masks pulled up whenever we were within 6’ of each other. The money was well spent based on other boats charging extra for items that are included with this price. Thx for the fun day Captain!

Took my 2 sons, 17 and 10 yo. We met early and left early and after picking up bait trolled for Marlin for nearly 5 hrs. Juan and his deckhand Luis worked hard with multiple spreads, baits, squid imitations
in various sizes and colors and various trolling speeds and patterns. Our only strike was a sea lion. I did not sense this was due to lack of effort or technique. The crew worked hard and changed presentations multiple times. I didn’t see any other boats hooked up and at the end of the day did not see any Marlin flags up on other vessels as we returned to harbor.The highlight of the week however was the end of the day. I sensed that Juan really hoped to get my boys some fish so before returning to harbor we backed into a point on the Pacific side and fished for Red Snapper with live bait in surf crashing on exposed structure. We could sight cast to the snapper as they rose and Luis was busy managing our lines and rebaiting hooks on the rolling deck. We boated 6 or 8 red snapper in 20-25 min and had at least twice that many strikes that were lost. It was a hoot and I sensed exciting for the crew as well. The experience will not be soon forgotten and I am grateful to Juan and Luis for the extra time and effort.

Very good experience. They picked us up on time and the boat was ready when we got to the dock. We had immediate action my target species was rooster fish and we accomplish that quickly. We picked up 4 nice Dorado and went 0-1 on Striped marlin but all in all it was a wonderful trip I will definitely fish with them again.

Great trip with Captain Juan. 2 out of 3 on striped Marlin over #100.  A #35 wahoo to start the morning off.  Then a steady pick on Dorado 10-25#.  Nice boat. Best of all it gets bit! I highly recommend captain Juan.  We called it a day by 11:30am.  We got lucky that the fish wanted to bite and captain Juan kept hooking them up for us!
