Fishing with Big Ben Charters 3/18/26

Full Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing2 adults

The Captain was Jose with 28 years Experience. My Wife & I Took off around 6:30am & at 8:05am fish on. It was a Sailfish just Under 8 feet long and 75 pounds. Around a 4 hours later a Large Blue Marlin hit the Bait. It took over an Hour and 20 minutes to land. The Marlin was over 200 pounds & 113 inches long. The Marlin was Dancing on its tail fin on top of the water so many times, it was Remarkable. I have fished allot, but this trip will be my Best memories……. Thanks so much to Captain Jose!!!

    Dream Fishing

    Full Day Trip – Deep Sea Fishing • 2 adults

    Very good communication in English, we spoke many times before fishing, all questions were answered. Boat is big, clean restroom, good equipment. Team (Felix and Daniel) are helpful and professional. We catch 5 Tunas (Bonitos) and one Mahi-Mahi. For sure we were able to catch more fish but didn't need it.

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)

    4 hour fishing trip

    Half Day Trip • 5 adults • 3 children

    We had a great time with Big Ben Charters. The day was beautiful and the staff, boat and experience were great. We caught Tuna, Mackerel, Mahi Mahi and a 40" needle fish. Our family had a great time and we look forward to doing it again in the future!
