We wanted to catch fish we could eat so we targeted and caught two Mahi Mahi. We had a half day AM trip that went off as described in the posting. The crew was focused on getting us on and catching fish. The communications from FishingBooker before the trip were helpful and the captain’s pictures of our catch were available on the site before we got home.
Tried trolling for Mahi Mahi but unfortunately no bites & was told today no boats caught anything. Switched to bottom fishing & caught 15 Red Snapers & 2 Groupers which are great eating. Was told that other boats didn't catch anything, even bottom fishing. I brought my own fishing gear & had years of experience bottom fishing at 180 to 200 ft water, wondered if that made the difference or was it pure luck 😬??
Thank you, Gavin! We’re glad we could still put you on some great fish despite the slow mahi bite. Whether it was your experience, a little luck, or both, we’re happy you had a successful day. Enjoy the fresh catch, and we hope to fish with you again!
This fishing trip was the perfect blend of inshore action and offshore adrenaline, giving us an unforgettable day on the water. We started inshore where the bite was strong and steady, landing a beautiful yellow snapper and a hard-fighting mackerel that kept the energy high right from the start. Then we pushed offshore and the experience shifted into something truly next level, first with a brilliant mahi mahi flashing colors at the boat, and then with the fish of a lifetime, a massive 500 lb black marlin that tested every bit of our strength and teamwork. Great conditions, great guiding, and an incredible mix of species made this trip an absolute five-star experience.
Captain and first mate were great! They got us onto tuna right out of the gate. Brought us a bottle of champagne because I had mentioned it was our honeymoon. They had snacks and beer as well.( typically) went bottom fishing and then onto swordfish. They went a bit longer because we got so close to catching a swordfish several times and were very eager to get us one. But that’s fishing… :)) also loved the boat, lots of shade. would go with them again in n a heartbeat. We are eating the tuna as I type this!!
Hi Marshall! Thank you so much for the amazing review — it truly means a lot to us! We loved having you both on board and are thrilled to hear you enjoyed your honeymoon fishing trip. What a fun day! We appreciate your kind words about our crew and boat, and we’d be more than happy to welcome you back anytime. Wishing you both an incredible start to married life — may it be filled with calm seas and tight lines! 🎣🥂
Boat was great for 4 people. plenty of room to fish and get out of ghe sun. Our captain asked us what we wanted to catch and he put us and we caught 3 of the 6 fish we asked to cstch. We caught tuna, grouper and snapper. Wind was moderate and this boat handled it fine for those in my familytgat get seasick. Location was super convenient and we were fishing 15 minutes after we headed out. id recommend this charter.
Thank you, Christopher! We’re thrilled you and your family had a great time and caught some of your target species. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Captain Novel was so great. He and his boat mate obviously were super experienced and took us to a school of tuna right away. A member of our family got seasick and the captain gave us tips that really worked to make him feel better. Everyone had fun. I would review them higher but if I could.
Thank you so much, Maggie! We’re thrilled that you and your family had such a great time. It was a pleasure having you all aboard, and we hope to see your family again soon!
