We had a great time with Captain Nelson and deckhands Javier and Rayben.  Captain got us out 1.5 hours out of harbor and we hooked up 3 nice Mahi Mahi and jackpot - we hit a 400lb Black Marlin.  It took 45min to get him to the boat.  The Deckhands were super helpful.  What a once in a lifetime experience hooking up a Marlin.  Incredible power.  The lunch they made was delicious.  They also fed us fruit and had enough beers and sodas for the us and the kids. Captain kept us out the full 8 hours. He wants to make sure you have a wonderful time and gets you on fish.  Go ahead and price compare.  You won’t find a better value or a better experience.  (other outfits were $2000-3000 per day )  Highly recommended

The Boat was an older boat but in good shape. It took us about 20-25 miles offshore. Slow to start but the action picked up. Caught and released 2 sailfish and kept on large Dorado! Thank you to our Captain and crew who were very attentive to having fresh bait on the lines and cleaned our catch. The drinks were plentiful, snacks and lunch just OK. We did request some Gatorade but they forgot to include it.  We definitely will book them again as the price was good! Thanks again for a fun day at sea!

It is hard to give a great review for a day of fishing where the only fish we saw was the ballyhoo used for bait.

However, I will say that it was not for lack of trying by the captain and crew.  They tried everything possible.

After getting back we learned that the week we were there was not the week for great fishing.

The other issue was that we were interested in catching some more inshore fish and all we did was look for the offshore species.

The boat is an 83 model and show its age, but it was comfortable, rode the waves and never felt any issues with the boat.  Would not hesitate to go in it again.

Nelson and crew were great. Small communication issue as someone new to the area, you have to take a water taxi from shore to the boat.
Once on, the crew jumped into action and made us feel at home. Fishing was decent, one keeper, Dorado. A couple more were released.
Boat was in fair shape but the exhaust was too much for my son, he chummed the water for us. 
For the price, it was a great trip!
