We started our trip in a timely manner the captain island his first mate were excellent. Wishing an hour and a half they hooked into a nice yellow fin tuna that took two hours and some change to land.ย Turned out to be 90 pounds
Also hooked a blue marlin before ending our half day trip. Overall was a great experience for our group.

My son and I have been on many fishing charters and even when the fishing is slow the 1st mate is captain would at least try to make sure we were comfortable, engage in conversation, and try different bait and different areas to catch SOMETHING, ANYTHING. The seas were rough which for me is awful because I get sea sick. I spent 4.5 hrs trying not to throw up. Even though I get sea sick itโs worth that misery to spend time with my son because he loves fishing. This trip was a 4.5hr washing machine ride with NO BITESโฆ.NOT ONE. The captain gave me to intro to the boat (life vests there, galley there, etc) then was never heard from again until we docked. The 1 st mate said 2 words the entire trip. His name and when I asked is this trip over he said โSiโ. And I speak fluent spanish!! No other words were spoken. He also left after dying his name and the entire trip he baited the lines 2 x and left them out about 20-50 feet behind the boat. No large fish was going to bite that close to our boat. Did they make an attempt to change the baitโฆNO. did they try to fish for something else,...NO. Did they even ask us if we were comfortable or if they could fish for something else to at least catch somethingโฆNO. It literally was a 4.5hr washing machine ride. Every other charter I have been on has ALWAYS at least tried to find a different spot to fish by calling other boats. The captain covered about 10 mile x 2 mile area. No other boats were anywhere near us. I felt ripped off. I also noticed there was not even a cooler on the boat for fish we caught and no blood stains on any large pole hook. They were trying to catch marlin with large lures. Not even live bait or dead bait. Ridiculous. I felt like the captain had no intention of catching anything otherwise he would have had live bait and a cooler for fish we caught. It became obvious this was a rip off from the start. DO NOT GO ON THIS CHARTER.!!
