Morning trip- would rather of gone bottom fishing than trolling, would of thought I would of caught something. The captain didn’t even ask me what I wanted- which was a shame. We went trolling and didn’t catch anything- I know fishing can be like that, so not grumbling

Good afternoon Mr. Mark! I’m sorry for the understanding. According to our conversation that we had, I understood that you wanted to catch a Marlin & that’s why we did the 4 hours of trolling. I’m sorry that you did not have the luck to capture the blue fish. We characterize ourselves for pleasing our customers in their requirements/ requests. We’ll see you in the ocean. The captain.

We had a fantastic day at sea with the captain and crew. Although we didn’t land any deep-sea tuna this time (which is part of the sport), the experience was outstanding from start to finish. When we switched to bottom fishing, the action really picked up and we caught an impressive number of triggerfish, which made the day even more exciting. The captain and crew were extremely professional, helpful, and patient — especially as I was fishing together with my son. They explained everything... More

It was a wonderful experience, we had many opportunities to bottom fish and attempt some big game fishing too. The captain and crew even prepared a whole meal for us on the way back to the Island (chicken, salad, and sandwiches!) They have plenty of iced beverages as well. Overall, it was a great time. Would absolutely recommend this trip and Capitão José!

went fishing in Madeira and had a wonderful experience! Everything was very well organized — they gave us delicious tuna sandwiches, water, and beer. We caught two fish, and they even gave me one as a gift. It was a great trip, full of fun and good vibes. Highly recommended! 🎣✨
