Our family went out for a half day fishing trip with Captain Luis and Javier and had the best day!  Both the captain and his right hand guy Javier went out of their way to make sure that we had a great time.  We caught 3 marlins and a bonus mahi mahi on the way home which we ate for lunch and still have 3 fillets in the freezer for another delicious meal.  The boat was super comfortable and very clean.  The entire experience exceeded our expectations.  We can’t wait to go back!

We were in the last hour of our trip, and it was looking like we were going to be shut out. Our captain, Luis, and our mate, Ishmael, were constantly trying different things - bait vs lure, trolling, etc. to position us to catch a fish. Their hard work and persistence paid off—right as we were going to head back a marlin struck. After a good fight and with some coaching, I got it on the boat. It was 63”. We tossed it back but the memories remain.

The captain and first mate were absolutely amazing. I’ve caught 2 marlin with them and 40 plus mahi mahi in the 4 trips I’ve taken with them. The only complaint I have is the manager (not the captain or the first mate) took my fish to a place that charged me 40$ US to filet 2 fish. I talked to the captain about it the next day and he got after the guy and made him filet my fish the second day for free. Normal cost is 3$-5$ Per fish.

Four of us went out on a half-day all inclusive with the El Budster Pride crew and within the first hour we doubled up on two striped Marlin.  Later in the outing we caught a small Mahi Mahi and Bonito.  Luis and Ismael were great on the boat, very enthusiastic and fun.  My only complaint is for an all-inclusive with 4 people there should be more than 6 waters on the boat cause it was hot, luckily I had brought some extra with me.  Other thing of note as a review, they do not filet the fish on the boat for you, this is another service that happens afterwards at an additional cost once you’re back at the docks which I didn’t appreciate since I’d been out the day before with another charter who did all this on the boat and had the fish on ice within 10 minutes of catching which I think is important for keeping the fish fresh.

We loved our trip! This company did an extremely professional job! From from the moment we met Mike at the gate, and then onboard the boat and fishing with Capt Luis and Ishmael, it was a wonderful outing. And, we caught our limit in Dorados! On arriving back at the Marina, they arranged for cleaning the fish and assisted us through every step.
We will be back, and we will want Mike, Captain Luis and Ishmael as our team.
