Great Experience and totally recommend! I will come back and book again with them!

6 Hour Trip3 adults1 child

Ok so I’ll break it down for you all. I’m an experienced fisherman and came out to fish with my wife and my 7 year old son who has never been out on a chartered fishing boat. When you arrive, park just past the Gonzo hotel. Website directions mention the long pier but it’s just past that. Captain was great and I mentioned before hand that I wanted a Rooster fish and when we started out we bought the live bait which is a must! Don’t go without it and it’s $30. Well worth it. Within 20 minutes we were getting Rooster Fish hits! I landed a beautiful rooster and we lost a few others. Then I mentioned I wanted to get my son on a dorado. Off we went and before we knew it, we had hooked up and my son landed a beautiful dorado. We saw and chased after marlin but they didn’t bite. The swell was getting a bit choppy and we cruised towards shore and got into some big Jacks! Our captain knew where the fish were and had no problem getting us on them. Very experienced and friendly and he was great with helping my son land his fish! Our captain also did a great job cleaning our fish and we went home with some beautiful filets! Fish tacos that night!!! If you are on the fence about booking this trip, I would totally recommend you do it. Do the 6 hour trip at least and be prepared to hook and fight some fish!

    Solid day on the water. Thank you to Carlos!

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    Carlos and the capricho crew were great hosts, met us at the dock promptly and ready with licenses and bait arranged prior. Slower August day on the water, but got us hitting on Bonitos right away in the depths. We were after a Mahi, and Carlos helped us land one closer in towards the end of the trip. Pointed us in the right dieection to get it cooked fresh across the street. Sushi, Ceviche, Grilled, and fried. Delicious. Great trip, would book again with Rodrigo and crew in an instant.

    Wow!

    4 Hour Trip (PM) • 2 adults

    Our Captain and First Mate know how to fish these waters! First, we were on fish right out of the harbor. That was a great sign. Second, I had informed our captain that I would love for my wife to catch a Dorado (Mahi Mahi). And boom that was her 5th fish! A beautiful fish to catch in beautiful waters! Third, our Captain hooked an 8 foot, 150 pound Marlin. That fish was a life time fish for me and the fight was exceptional. Our Captain and First Mate were excellent teachers on how to land a fish of that size and they worked hard to make sure we got it in the boat. Such an amazing experience.

    Catching fish with Captain Carlos[aka. Charly Tuna]

    6 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    My buddy and I had a great fishing trip and made some fabulous memories with Captain Carlos. Captain Carlos was very knowledgeable and got us to the reef and put us on fish right away. Caught lots of Grouper, Whitefish, Snapper and even a couple of Scorpion fish. Ended the fishing adventure with a ~120lb Yellow Fin. 45 minutes to bring that beast in, but what blast. Highly recommend Captain Carlos and leaving out of San Jose. Much prefer going out of San Jose, Del Cabo rather then San Lucas. Will definitely charter Charly Tuna again the next time we are in Cabo! Thanks!

    4 Hour Trip (PM) • 3 adults

    Captain David was awesome. we did the 4 hr trip 1-5 pm. water was choppy no action but stayed positive. last hr on the way back we hit! My boys will remember this forever. Windy or not worth to book with them. Not guaranteed to get a fish but thats fishing. Worth the time with my boys. Thanks for the experience!
