  Amazing Fishing Trip !!!!

  6 hours fishing trip on May 14, 2026 • 2 adults

  This was the first time my girlfriend and I have ever fished out of San Jose. The Captain Jaime, or could have been Carlos and crew Felipe were outstanding. We hooked our first stripped marlin 30 minutes into fishing, but unfortunately it broke off. But in the next two hours we landed two beautiful Striped Marlin, one about 80lbs then a 220lb monster. We also hooked what was probably a very large shark that we fought for about 40 minutes before the line snapped. Back at the marina we took photos and they cleaned and filleted the fish for use., We also had them vacuum seal it and freeze it for our flight back to Oregon. I would definitely charter from them again, we had an amazing trip. The only complaint I had was that one of the reels did not have a level wind on it, which caused the line to bunch up in the middle while I was fighting the shark and caused the line to pinch and break. I really wanted to see it after the long fight. Overall we were very happy with the charter and look forward to the next trip with them.

  Great Day Fishing!!

  4 hour fishing trip on January 28, 2026 • 2 adults

  My wife, daughter, and I fished for 4 hours with our guide, Poncho. He was very friendly and very efficient in setting up the rigs for trolling and live-bait fishing. We hooked 2 mahimahi on live-bait, then a few on lures. We caught a very large mahi that Poncho said was rare to see. After returning to the dock there were guys waiting to filet our catch. We walked away with 5 full bags of mahi filets! Daliken kept in good contact with us prior to our trip and confirmed all the details. We highly recommend Daliken!!

  Great trip

  8 Hour Trip on October 28, 2025 • 2 adults

  Got off to a slow start, we couldn’t find live bait. Once the Captain decided to head out the energy improved. The Captain and first mate were seasoned veterans. They had a destination in mind. We got there and we got set up quickly. We trolled awhile and noticed something in the water. It was a Marlin with its head sticking up. We starting heading that way, when fish on! A Mahi was leaping out of the water. I pulled that fish in, when another Mahi leaped. Fish on again. We landed that fish. Great start. We settled in, set up and trolled. A little while later, bam, fish on. This was a different story. Reel screaming, heart pumping, a big Blue Marlin dancing on the water. An epic battle ensued. The Captain and mate did a great job helping me land the fish of my dreams.

  Gracias, Pancho!

  PM Fishing 4 hours on September 8, 2026 • 2 adults

  Pancho took care of everything for us. All we did was pull fish in and enjoy the beautiful day. We were so glad we went in the morning instead of the afternoon as previously planned.

  marlin

  6 hours fishing trip on April 22, 2026 • 3 adults

  we went out hoping to get on some marlin and captain poncho did not disappoint. we caught one and had many more biting and jumping all around us. I recommend at least a 6 hour trip gives lots of time to find hook up and bring in the fish. we’ll be back again soon.
