Porpoises and Marlin Abound
Our day began weeks ago when I first read all of the reviews and contacted Capitan Carlos. I selected him because I know there are days when the ocean doesn't want to give up her bounty, Im okay with that, and his reviews showed that he would turn our trip into a nature excursion if it were one of those days. Our day turned out to be both. We met Carlos at the dock bright and early. He asked what we'd like to fish for. I said, "you're the professional, you tell me what we're fishing for today." He said okay and we were off. As we headed out 21 miles Carlos explained how different species congregate and utilize different skills to hunt and feed. He explained that he has decades on the ocean and his knowledge showed. As we continued he spotted a pod of porpoises and pointed them out to me. Just then a huge porpoise jumped right next to the boat and made the entire trip 100% worth it. When we finally got the the area we were going to fish Carlos explained the connection between the porpoise and the marlin and I could easily see the porpoises swimming with their babies and breaching in every direction. Then I saw the fin of a marlin. Once I saw the one I could see the many. Carlos set us up and within 10 mins, marlin on! I was excited and so nervous. This was my very first marlin and Carlos took me to catch it. We had a second one on just a couple of minutes after bringing in the first. That one said not today and got away. We had hits from dorado as well but they hit the lures not the bait. Still awesome to watch the fish hunt the lures. My husband and I had a wonderful day on the water with Carlos and are so grateful for his wealth of knowledge and his expertise. Muchísimas gracias Carlos por un hermoso día, estoy feliz de haberte conocido. More stars. Carlos was always quick to answer the many questions I had and never seemed bothered. Although I've been deep sea fishing many times in my life I consider myself to be a novice and Carlos was great at talking me through the things. He is safe, personable, knowledable. Shared where we should go to see other wildlife. I give Carlos 6 additional stars for our fun trip. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
good day on water wit friends and good fishin
