I booked this trip for my husband and his 2 friends that were on vacation with us. The guys had a great time and caught a big mahi. I booked online and the captain came to our resort to pick them up and drop them off. Well worth $400 for private charter. The guys could’ve kept fish but they let the captain have it seeing we were at all inclusive. Good time- couldn’t ask for anything else. Captain Nelson was very nice guy with good information on what to do in the area if we want to venture out. Would highly recommend!!!

The captain and crew were very nice, my wife and I reeled in one sizable wahoo. But 3 other fish got away. Captain Nelson had the day off for our charter but picked us up and drove us to the boat. We enjoyed chatting with him and he was extremely helpful. We would have loved to get to know him better and hear more about the city and area while we waited between bites.  The crew spoke enough english to communicate and had a positive attitude and kept the trip fun! We would have liked to catch a few more fish and got most of the bites further out from shore on the ride back. The snacks and drinks were good as well. We would probably come book again if we come back to Puerto Plata

We fished a half day on June 7, 2023.  The goal was to mark one thing off my bucket list, a sailfish or marlin.  Goal accomplished!!!  The captain and crew worked really hard to make this happen.  They checked baits every 20-30 minutes and made changes to baits if they weren’t working.  They had snacks, beer, water, pineapple for me during the trip.  The crew was very friendly and easy to talk to.  Pick up from my resort went well.  I would recommend High Z’s to anyone and will definitely book again next year when I come to Puerto Plata.

We enjoyed a fun afternoon of fishing on 1-1-23. The weather was great, the boat was nice (including a bathroom), the variety of chips and drinks was great (along with some delicious pineapple), and I got to soak up the sun while my husband reeled in three fish! Our captain Alex and first mate were very friendly and personable. They were constantly asking if we needed anything and made it obvious that they wanted us to have a good time. And we definitely did! We were staying in Sosua and High Z’s provided free hotel pickup and drop off - very much appreciated. The only thing that was missing, and that I had hoped for, was to have a suggestion for us to keep and take our mahi-mahi somewhere to be prepared for us. I know it wasn’t “included,” so all is well. We would definitely recommend booking with High Z’s!

Had a scheduling conflict and captain Nelson help accommodate us sooner then planned and even offered to reschedule to the morning which would be better fishing experience. They upgrade at there coast to a larger boat due to maintenance. Overall, I would book this anytime I make it back to the DR.
