Had a great time out with my 10 year old daughter. Captain Jim was awesome and he was super nice to my girl - which, in my books, is tops!

Half Day Trip (AM)

My two boys and I took a 4hr trip out of Simpson Bay with Daniel and Ashton. We each had a chance to reel in a catch but unfortunately only got one into the boat. We end up with a 15-17lb Mahi Mahi that we split with the crew which was more than enough for me to make lunch for my boys, wife and I. Daniel and Ashton did a great job taking care of three novice fishermen. A great memory for me with my boys.

Thank you, Mike! We’re so glad you and your boys had a great time with Daniel and Ashton. Even if only one made it into the boat, that mahi mahi sounds like a winner. We love hearing that the trip became such a special family memory. Thanks again for your kind words, and we hope to see you all back on the water soon.

Captain Miguel and First Mate Coco are St. Maarten natives and knew the waters. Great service, drinks, all the equipment. Did trolling and bottom fishing. We had a great time and would do it again.
