50kg TUNA!!!

Half Day Trip – Big Game (AM)4 adults2 children

our family of 4 booked a half day with Pedro and Vashko and it delivered the memories! We chased for the first few hours but remained positive and under up persevering, landing a big tuna to end our experience! It was an experience we will never forget, capped with a delicious tuna dinner tonight. We would definitely do this again as a family and Pedro and vashko were awesome and really friendly! Thank you for a great fishing experience in the azores!!!! The Dunlop family.

    Tuna and more!!

    Half Day Trip – Big Game (AM)4 adults

    3/4 of the people had not been ocean fishing before. Within a very short time we had hooked and brought in the nice tuna. The crew was wonderful with Capt. Pedro and first mate Vasco providing direction and coaching as needed. Since it was a time with friends, it was also great to see reactions to see dolphins, dolphins, and far too many dolphins. The only regret is that we did not book a full day of fishing and opted for a four hour trip. But it was a great introduction and we look forward to booking with the same crew in the future when more family and friends come to visit us on the island. Pedro and Vasco thank you very much and we hope this is the beginning of a long lasting friendship.

    Core Memory Unlocked

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (PM)2 adults

    Vasco and Guillermo made for an outstanding day on the water. Vasco is an excellent captain who kept us on the fish all afternoon. We lost count of how many barracuda, triggerfish, and rockfish we caught. Guillermo was a fun, capable first mate, and the two of them worked seamlessly as a team. Beyond putting us on great fishing, Vasco provided fresh peaches and watee during the trip and took great photos and videos so we’d have plenty of memories to take home. The whole crew was friendly, easygoing, and made the day genuinely fun. The boat itself was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a great catch and an even better time on the water.

    Wonderful trip

    Full Day Trip – Big Game4 adults1 child

    we went on the trip with our 15 and 12 year old kids and we booked the big game for the hole day. the crew was very flexible and suggested to try different kinds of fishing and routes if there wouldn‘t be a bite on the big game. it came so and at the end of the day we had a lot of smaller fish despite the big ones didn‘t want to bite. we really appreciate this. the crew is very professinal, we’ve been impressed. all in one - we were all excited and had a great experience! thank you so much.

    A great experience, looking forward to do it again

    Full Day Trip – Big Game2 adults

    The sea was calm and most of the time the sky was overcast which actually helped, in terms of air temperature. The big-eye tuna had the audacity to avoid us :) even if two fishes in the 40 kg range were hooked by a nearby fishing vessel, a fact which we have witnessed. Plenty of dolphins were seen, some of which came within metres from the boat. The Portuguese man-of-war could be seen at least every ten minutes, with the boat underway. Sea birds were present almost all the time. For someone who loves marine life, this area is a must. Both Capt. Pedro and his mate Vasco provided a thorough briefing regarding the fishing equipment, the related strategies and the tuna behaviour. I would highly recommend their services.
