Jimmitri is a real professional, both in equipment and knowledge. He had lots of experience and gave us a perfect day, with both joy and two catches: tuna and dorado

Dimmitry’s boat is custom built, he designed it himself. With a great fighting chair, head, and generous seating space, it serves its purpose well. Two 150 HP outboards take the boat quickly to the fishing grounds. All equipment looks like new, much of it is new, and the rest is very well maintained. Dimmitry’s craftmanship was demonstrated by the technique used to catch the black marlin: use a bonito as live bait. It took less than a minute of trolling with the bonito before the marlin grabbed it. Dimmitry gave the boat full gas to set the hook properly, and the rest was relatively easy. The fighting chair certainly helped. Oh, and I forgot to say that Dimmitry and Naif are great guys.

We had a great morning on Dimmytri’s boat. It was my son’s 9th birthday and he wanted to go fishing. We also thought it would be nice to see some dolphins. We actually ended up swimming within arms reach of a huge pod of dolphins which was an absolutely amazing experience. Then we went on to do a couple of hours’ fishing during which time my son caught a barracuda and we also caught king fish and a gar.

Dimmytri demonstrated once again his craftsmanship, by locating the right spots and using the right techniques. The trip became a 10-hour trip, since the fish just kept coming. Dimmytri had found a “hot spot” and kept it hot by chumming the water with a bonito head. Dorado after dorado, 12 in total, with some wahoo thrown in for change, most of which we caught on a few small pieces of bonito. And all I really wanted was some small reef fish - which we got as well, by the way. Who wants to go home when the catching is so good?
