Hi Terry, thank you for your review
I booked a full day for fishing with my kids. Apparently when we got to the dock captain Juan wasn’t there, and the replacement captain had no idea what he was doing. The first mate was alright. Right away we caught a baby Dorado and a tiny bonito. And then after that, no bites. The boat was tiny and run down with barely any seating and room. Captain Ismael just kept on going in circles when there were clearly no fish where we were. Also, my kids and I agreed we wanted to switch over to bottom fishing or rooster fishing and the captain denied, even though we were PAYING them 600$. Additionally, the first mate or captain didn’t know any English so there was no communication through us. We even left 4 hours early because of how bad it was. At the end the captain was pushing us to give the first mate a tip, which was very annoying. Overall, if you want to go on a fishing trip I suggest booking a bigger sized boat and an experienced captain.

Thanks for your review Cara, To start you arrived too early before the estimated time, there was absolutely no one at the dock, it is not the first time the crew fished, you caught fish, remember that this is called fishing not to catching, the captain never denied anything, if you are going to change the type of fishing you cannot retract every 5 minutes, the weather was not the best and you decided to return to port.
Blessings.

Thanks for your review Steve.
would not recommend this fishing charter. really your just paying for a boat ride. i have fished all over the atlantic and pacific i could see that there were fish all under the boat and had mentioned it to the deck hand yet they failed to target fish or change tacticks. did not have a active graph on boat
First at all thanks for the review Bryan, but we didn’t do a boat ride,we made a fishing trip,the crewdid what was in their hands, but what can you do if the fish doesn’t want to bite, and unfortunately there was no luck.
Thanks.
