    Full day fishing trip

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults

    Boat a bit older, but overall a great day. We got 14 catches; bonitos, Spanish mackerel, Mahi mahi among others. Also sightings of dolphins, turtles,flying fish and flying mantas. Boat size perfect if you are a group of 3-4. We got to keep the fish and the superb restaurant Casito Marisco made us a splendid dinner enough for sex people

    6-hour trip

    Crew was on-time and ready to go. They worked hard all day to put us on fish. Snacks, drinks, fresh pineapple, and mahi sashimi kept us going all day. Highly recommended!

    full day fishing

    Full Day Trip • 4 adults

    Were scheduled a full day of fishing with Captian Gervyn and his mate. They were very friendly. They picked us up on time. They had a cooler full of water, beer , icetea and soda along with fresh pineapple and watermelon. The sandwiches were just ok. I would suggest to take your own food . The trip was great until the Captian asked how much of our fish we wanted. Of course I paid $750 for all day, your sign you have hidden by the seats suggests 20% tip for the mate for cleaning and you want some of my fish. We were going to offer anyway to give them a filet from the dorado we caught and they almost kept a whole fish by putting it back in their cooler. Plus we did give them $120 tip that I now wish I didn't since they tried to keep a whole fish. I don't think they made a mistake. I took back one filet but should of keep it all. If you choose them. I would still tip them but KEEP MY FISH.

    Reported Catch
    Dolphin (Mahi Mahi)
    Response from Charter operator

    Hi Mr. Scott Gerton. You mentioned 3 imprtants points that i need to clear up. 1- About the sandwichs. Thanks, i will keep that in mind. 2- You catched 3 big mahi mahi, but why not to share at less 1 filet with the crew meanwhile you take 5 with you. If there was a mistake about the fish, it was from my mate that he did not understand what i said. (Only one filet for us) That was what i talked with you, 1 filet. I couldn't see waht he did with the fish cos i was up on the bridge. 3- You said that there is a sign who says about the 20% but that is just for tiping the crew for the dayof work, not for paying to the mate who HAS to clean and allowe you to keep the fish if you want. We clean the fish, cos that is our work and placer for you, doesn't matter if you take or not the fish. I don't see in the sign anything about cleaning fish. But for sure, i will keep that in mind. The tips are a suggest; You don't have to give if you don't want. This situation did not have to have happened. Greyvin Mendez.

    Half day trip

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    The crew was great, the wind was very high, this affected the fishing. Caught 1 small red snapper. Winds were too strong to hold on station for the bite. I know we would have had a much better result if winds would have been more calm. Still was Blessed with a Great crew! Hope to be Blessed with calmer winds next time out. PURA VIDA!
