Ricardo was our guide and he was excellent

4 Hour AM 4th of July Special 4 MAX4 adults

Ricardo was an excellent guide! He tried numerous spots to get us on fish and have a chance to get a Tarpon. The boat, outboard and fishing gear were all top of the line and he also stocked a cooler with bottled water for us. We got lucky and my daughter landed a large Tarpon approximately 60” and 50lbs. It was a long fight and Ricardo was excellent in giving my daughter directions, and adjusting the boat to give her the best chance of landing it. This was a great experience and we will definitely do it again.

    Unforgettable Tarpon Trip

    4 Hour Trip AM • 4 adults

    My son and I had an incredible day out with Captain Ritchie. From the moment we left the dock, it was clear we were in good hands — the captain read the water perfectly and put us right on the fish. The highlight of the trip was watching my son hook into a massive tarpon. The captain talked him through every second of the fight, coaching him on when to give line, when to reel, and how to keep pressure on without losing it. That kind of calm, experienced guidance made all the difference — we landed the fish, and it’s a memory my son and I will be talking about for years. Professional, patient, and clearly passionate about what he does. Can’t recommend this trip enough for anyone looking for a top-notch fishing experience, especially with kids. We’ll be booking again.

    3 days of tarpon fishing

    6 Hour Trip AM Big Tarpon • 2 adults

    what you will find booking with Fish N Sea is great boats, top notch quality fishing gear, and most importantly knowledgeable guides to put you on the fish. while I really like captain Ritchie and his savvy abilities to raise tarpon, and the bimini on his boat, it is tough to not choose to fish with captain Luis. Although his boat doesnt have a bimini, that lets you access the channel between Laguna Torecilla and San Jose, a big plus. Luis also has Livescan electronics, electric trolling, plus he is a good flyfishing instructor. So do what i did, book two days with captain Luis, and one day with capt Ritchie. I had a very good experience angling with them and am already planning to return to do it again. Fish on!

    Fish of a Life time.

    4 Hour Trip AM • 2 adults

    If your looking for the best fishing experience that PR has to offer. No need to look any further. Last year we went out with captain Luis and he put us on some of the best fishing we have ever had. This year we went out with captain Richie and he was on freaking point. Captain Richie put us on the tarpon charter of a life time. It was crazy. There were boats all around us and not many were hooking up. We were out there 30 min and had the first one to the boat. If you have ever been tarpon fishing you know how hard they are to catch. In a 4 hour morning trip we got 3 monsters to the boat and lost count of how many hits and hook ups we lost. A chater of a lifetime. Thank you again Richie and Luis. We look forward to seeing you next year.

    Friendly guide + Lots of Tarpon

    2 Hour Trip 3-5 PM • 2 adults

    Captain Richie was great and very friendly. We only booked a 2-hour trip, so we didn’t end up catching anything (although we did get a few bites), but we saw a lot of tarpon. The captain answered every question we had and was very knowledgeable. Although the bite was a little slow during the short time we had, Captain Richie did a great job working with us, teaching us about the fish, and putting us in a great spot. We saw at least 100 tarpon surfacing throughout the trip. One thing we really appreciated was that the captains let us know well in advance that the bite had been finicky in the area recently. They recommended booking a longer trip because it would allow more time to visit different spots and try different lures. Captain Richie was also happy to let us experiment with different lures and bait, which we appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend it. BTW- Captian Richie is extremely quick at taking apart wind knots, we were impressed.

    Great fishing experience

    6 Hour Trip AM • 3 adults

    Captain Richie said the bite has been better in the afternoon so we switched to the afternoon trip instead of the morning trip and it was a good decision. Started off a little slow but we started hooking into some tarpoon after the first hour of fishing. Landed a 15 pounder and then we switched to artificial baits. Started working canals and I hooked into a nice 80 pound tarpoon on my second cast. Had a good fight and landed him by the boat. Overall a pretty productive day. Captain Richie was a great guide and we had a blast.
