3/4 Day Trip – Banderas Bay2 adults

I gave 5 stars for the real Captain. The captain listed was not the captain, just a middleman and doesn`t even own a boat. Fishing Booker is a broker and then the captain listed was also a broker who represents several other boats. I prefer to pay the man who actually puts in the work! Too many hands in the pie for me. The real Captain was awesome. Great experience and put us on the X.

Response from Charter operator

Hi Brian! I'm Maxe, nice to greet you. I appreciate your comment and your time for writing to us. I would like to clarify a point; sometimes my participation in the process is only the initial part, you should know that this is also honest work; My commitment is to put you the best of our crew, in the best boat available at the moment, I am responsible for every trip I have had (Cap. Hector is my partner) We are a team: I will be glad to go on board another time as a fisherman. As always I pass the good comments to my partner Hector's and crew, best regards my friend.

    Fishing

    13 Hour Fishing Tournament • 2 adults

    We booked the 13hr. We met the crew prior and were handed food and water for our adventure. Left on time, making our way out there the wind turned and the swells started rising, so is and most boats turned around and stayed close to shore. Caught a few Jack Crevalles, Bonitas, and Spanish Mackerel. They were helpful with the set up but also let you help and do things if you wanted. Was a long day but a good day overall.

    Mahi madness!

    Extended Full Day Trip – Tournament • 1 adult

    My second trip with captain scooby and chicken. After a great 1st trip we decided to head offshore to try for a marlin. Although we had hits from marlin we couldn't hook up properly although seeing them hit the baits was pretty spectacular. I may have missed out on a marlin but the fishing was still awesome we found an area with lots of mahi mahi. I think the final tally was 12 with a few missed hits and lost fish. Again we had ceviche and sashimi on the way back which was delicious.

    Bonito bonanza

    Full Day Trip • 1 adult

    Had a great day. Captain scooby and his crewman chicken (not sure why he's called chicken) put me on the fish straight away. We caught over 20 bonito (I lost count) and a few skipjack. We then headed offshore and came across a beautiful mahi mahi. As we headed back in we had fresh bonito ceviche and with the lures still in the water we picked up a Sierra mackerel and a blue runner. All in all a great fay
