Dorothy Fishing Charters 

If you’re thinking of booking with the Dorothy do it. My son and I finally broke our deep sea curse and it’s all thanks to the crew on the Dorothy. I now see what all the other charters I have been on were doing wrong. The crew of the Dorothy worked hard for our best chance of success; constantly changing and keeping the baits fresh and running lines at different depths. The crew thought the waters would be rough while we were out but for a couple land locked Canadians we did not find it bad at all. It was a full moon the night before so the first mate thought it could be a slow bite as the fish would have been feeding all night. We still managed to catch tuna, barracuda and rainbow runner. We had a few other bites and one on that got away as well. We were hoping for a wahoo but that did not happen this time. At the end of the day Roberto arranged to have our fish taken to the Driftwood restaurant where the chef cooked it all up for us in three different styles depending on the species. What an incredible meal it was. They cook the fish and provide sides including rice, potatoes, fries, fried plantain, veggies, some kind of corn bread and garlic toast. All that for only $17 per person! What a memorable day for us. Looking back our only regret was not booking the full day for more time on the water. We did the 6 hour day and wish now we would have done the 8 hour trip. The extra $ would have been worth it we think. If we ever come back to Aruba booking an another day with Roberto and his crew would be a must.

i think i found my favorite boat and crew. ive sailed on many in aruba but havent seen a happier hard working crew and captain. they were always changing things up trying new things and man o man did we land on the wahoo,barracuda,1 blackfin tuna. ill tell you what i like most and why you should choose Dorothy. they have a downrigger no handline which is awesome,they work all levels of the water column which is super important. and they pull out all the tricks,another fun thing is captain is inside joining in on conversation and laughing right along and the fishfinder screen is right there to see and the fish alarm keeps you on your toes. we had so much fun im going back out on an afternoon trip tomorrow. we lost a few wahoo to sharks or we would have had more nothing like fighting a fish getting it to boat and have a huge shark chomp the thing in 2 heck one fish was just the head. and yes i would have had a great day if things were slow its just the vibe i got from.capt and crew.

Booked this fishing with Dorothy Charters and had the best time ever! Roberto Tromp met with us first thing and introduced us to the crew. The crew consisted of Ronaldo and Jerry. They both did everything in their power to make sure that we had a wonderful time and got on some fish. We did the 8 hour trip which is what is recommended. After catching quite a few nice fish Roberto Tromp recommended that he would transport our catch to the Driftwood restaurant and they fixed all three types of fish four different ways for a very reasonable price. I have done charters before in Aruba but Dorothy Charters was the best so far and it is highly recommended if you want a crew that will give it their all to get you on some fish!

We went on the boat Dorothy this morning for a half day of deep sea fishing! We had a blast! Chayo (boat captain) and 1st Mate Luis made this Day great and enjoyable for us! These 2 guys never stopped working and got us on 3 Tuna and a Mahi Mahi! If you are looking for a chartered Deep Sea fishing experience I highly recommed Dorothy!

we did a 4 hour afternoon trip and landed 2 wahoo and a barracuda. Jerry and Louis were great, they kept the bait fresh on the lines and answered all our questions and were very informative! they cleaned our catch when we got back, took us and our catch to a local restaurant where they did a phenomenal job of preparing it! we would recommend them to anyone who wants the full experience! priced very reasonable! thanks Roberto and crew, we will see you again.
