Great crew and boat

Half day - Family Friends day OFF2 adults

My wife and I booked a six hour big game trip $1300 CAD (blue/ white marlin, skipjack, bonito). Four man crew who were very nice. I’m Canadian and all four crew members spoke good English. We were served breakfast and lunch 👌🏻. We had five lines in the water at all times but did not get a fish on the boat. That’s fishing I suppose. The boat was very nice. We had a nice ten minute dolphin show. They told me June and July are best cause of the blue fin tuna

Response from Charter operator

Thank you so much for your nice review, about the crew and boat. The big skipjack escape near the boat that was a release. Come for the Blue Marlin in June/July or Bluefin Tuna in July, but the White Marlin are still were… All best and tight lines.

    BEST DAY EVER

    Full Day White Marlin • 6 adults

    What can I say what an incredible experience! We were celebrating my 50th birthday, and the five of us decided to go marlin fishing. I’ve been many times before but had never caught one. Then, on my 50th birthday, it finally happened: I landed a 70lb white marlin, which we successfully tagged and released! The crew were amazing from start to finish. They even surprised me with a birthday cake, and I loved raising the flag to show that I had caught my first marlin. The boat was perfect, spacious and extremely well equipped. If you’re thinking about going marlin fishing, these guys are the real deal. An unforgettable experience for all five of us and the perfect way to celebrate my 50th birthday!

    Best crew ever

    Full Day White Marlin • 2 adults

    This trip was for my husband, who has always wanted to fish for marlin. we did not have luck this trip, but notfor lack of trying. the captain and crew worked so hard to find he fish,butit was not our day. We did however see a shark, dolphins,and a sun fish. The entire crew was amazing and friendly. They fed us well and even added a bottle of bubbly for our anniversary celebration.
