The captain and crew were amazing. The deck hands busted their butts getting weeds off the lines and changing bait. Highly recommend this fishing service!

Don’t tans this trip it’s not as described in anyway. Fake trip, no fish, different boat that put off horrible diesel fumes the entire time.

Book a full day trip if you’re going after the big fish. The smaller fish (mahi-mahi, tuna, etc..) were biting like crazy in may!

Fantastic boat, really good spots, nice lagoon, good service. Spots are also not wildly far to each other, which it is an advantage, more fishing time!

Just have fun, the fish are almost suicidal. Stay off the sauce too, just drink water otherwise you'll be sick. Apart from that, you'll love it!

Not the crews fault at all. We went on an afternoon trip so hard to really say. We didn’t catch the big game fish we wanted but we caught some good tuna.

Arrive early, take cash. You’ll likely catch nice fish but it’s the crew that does the actual fishing - if they didn’t you’d likely catch less fish.

I definitely recommend fishing with these guys because you fish, and they are very friendly and attentive.

If you are heading out with someone who is prone to sea sickness, make sure they take some Gravol or something similar to reduce sea sickness.

Wouldn’t suggest if you are known to get motion sickness. I was fine but it’s a hour ride back so it’s not the best if you don’t feel well

I was told point blank best time of year is March, followed by January, so if your looking for big fish, that’s your best route!

As stated previously, the weather on the day I went out was rough and we didn't catch anything but the Captain and crew were great. I would highly recommend Fish's and Captain Hector.

it's so worth the money if you want to get a fishing experience to go in as small a group as possible. you get so much more value for your time!!

Check the weather, it is sometimes rougher than it looks. You will still catch fish inshore though and it’s fun either way.

Don't do it. The captain is a scammer. Under prepared and terrible equipment is an under statement.

Be sure to take Dramamine so your trip isn't ruined by not feeling well. Wear sunscreen and sunglasses of course get a good night sleep and be prepared for a good fight with some big fish!

Take Dramamine if you get motion sickness, it really helps! Bring sunscreen and patience...its fishing.

Like all fishing some luck is involved but May June July have a large amount of seaweed which can be annoying. Bring lots of sunscreen the sun can be brutal.

Make sure you check the weather for the day. We didn't do that and ended up in rough seas. This is not a ding on the crew. They were fantastic.

Know that fishing is hit and miss you don’t always catch what you are going for, but these guys out here will work their butts off to try to put you on some fish!

Take the morning trip and check ocean conditions before you head out. High quantities of seaweed made trolling difficult.

The water is a little rough. If you are prone to get sea-sick, you will get sea-sick. That was the case with one of the people in our party. So plan accordingly.

Bottom fishing is probably best chance as lots of billfish are about a month or so earlier. Still possible to get some but not as much. I hear January is best time for sails in this area.
