Great and clear communication.ย Great mate and captain, both hardworking. Great boat and equipment.
I did a half-day trip.ย I wanted to catch marlin, but we settled with a beautiful Dorado (Mahi Mahi) fish, well over 30lbs.ย Such a fun fight!
The coordinator Johnny was fast at answering all of my questions.ย I asked about getting a license online, which saved us time and allowed us to leave a few minutes early.ย
It does take about 20-30 mins to get out to fishing waters. Before that, we stopped for picking up live and frozen bait for $30 cash, which I had asked about ahead of time.ย Then about half way into the trip, the mate changed out the lewers and thatโs when we got the hit! Just trust the process!
About an hour later, one of the frozen baits was hit but not hooked, and thats when we saw her.ย A huge marlin!ย Sadly she did not want to bight for anythingโฆย just one of those days, but the captain and crew tried hard!ย I gave the captain a couple of cold ones to keep up the motivation.
Once back, the mate and dock folks brought my fish up to the local cleaner, La Filetera, who charged a $15 cleaning fee and then a $3+ fee per pound, which wasnโt as economical as Griseldaโs Smokehouse, but Griseldaโs was on the opposite side of the marina.
Next time I would ask if I could get dropped off there instead, since Griselda can also smoke your fish.ย I will say that La Filetera was able to accomodating a quick fillet, vacuum seal and flash freeze.ย I was able to pickup my fish later that night!
The boat had a toilet and a lower seating area in the shade.ย It has two fighting chairs and the crew used 5 poles in at a time on average. Overall I highly recommend this crew and boat!
Happy Fishing

I did a half-day...
Hi Dannie, thank you so much for the kind review! Talk about a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We catch a decent number of Marlin, but yours was truly something special. Kudos to you for the extremely long fight, that was a feat! Look us up the next time you are in beautiful Cabo!
