    Half day with Captain Alex!

    4 hour trip (2 persons or less) • 2 adults

    Captain Alex and Adrian were phenomenal hosts on a lovely fishing attempt. Unfortunately for us the sea sickness got to us before the fish. We asked to go back early and they were so nice about it. Adrian was so sweet and made sure the ever present puke bucket was always clean and cold water and paper towels were plentiful. We wish we could have stayed and fished but it it was not meant to be. The boat was sparkling clean and they seemed super knowledgeable about the trip. Maybe we will try again with scopolamine patches.

    3/4 Day trip with Captain Alex

    3/4 Day Trip • 4 adults

    Once in a lifetime trip! Where do I start...Fishing charter with SeaBorn for my 55th birthday. Started out with a hook up with a Marlin an hour into the trip - saw it breaking the surface and fought it for 30 minutes but were not able to get it to the boat. My 14 year old son was next up - got a double hook up and lost the one but he boated a nice little sailfish. Then my 16 year old daughter was up - another double hook up - this time my son brought another sail to the boat for leader tag to indicate a catch while the sail my daughter was fighting took almost the entire reel. After the first sail was released, the captain and crew turned to work on my daughters sailfish which she was able to bring the boat as well - she won the pool for the largest fish much to my son's dismay. Finished off the day with my wife boating a cuda. Highly recommend Sea Born Fishing - great boat, captain and crew!

    Half Day Trip with Piche and Adrian

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 6 adults

    Took great care of us including one person who got a little sea sick. Despite trying different bait and areas came up empty as did all the other boats. We were on edge of a storm front which could have made it a challenge! Would go out with them again!

The crew always looked for a way to make us comfortable. If you are looking for a good fishing experience they are the option. A+++++.. Thanks!!!!

    We didn't catch anything but not for lack of trying. Great boat. Even better Captain, and especially first mate Adrian. Changed bates and teasers, colors ect. Trying to get a bit. Sometime you do great other times nothing. Saw one sailfish couldn't get him to eat. Qould go again with them next time here.
