We were told the fishing had been slow lately so we were going to head to a different spot. About two hours in, the captain found a weed line and it wasn’t long after that the reel was spinning. After a fun fight and the crew doing a great job getting it in the boat we had a 79.5 inch white marlin. We also caught mahi-mahi on the way back in. This was their 6 hour trip which allowed us to travel a little further. Thank you to the crew for all the hard work.
We had a very good experience in this boat. Caught a bunch of fish. Lost a big wahoo 5 feet away unfortunately which would have been a great finale. All 6 caught a fish in a half day trolling. Owner was very responsive to our requests. Overall good time
The boat picked us up promptly at the pier, we arrived before the boat but it was waiting in line behind the dive boats for a space to pick us up. We fish Mexico several times a year and all over the Caribbean. This is our favorite part of doing a cruise. The boat was in good shape and the crew was great. We updated the total to four adults a couple days before with no problem. The was plenty of water, beer and snacks on board in including sandwiches and pudding for lunch. The even made Ceviche with the one fish we landed. The reels on board are the standard Penn International 50W, and most were in good condition, one was showing it’s age but the line was in great shape and they keep on top of the baits keeping the seaweed out of them while we trolled. We had three more hook ups on Mahi and a Bonita but this is where the trip fell a little short. Looking at some of the terminal tackle I don’t feel we were fishing with sharp enough hooks, as the second mate looked like he was pulling solid hooks sets, but we kept losing smaller fish on tight lines. I know you can loose fish from time to time but this was a pretty high ratio for what would have been a decent haul for the day. I think the crew should sharpen their hooks and it would put this charter at the top and a five star review.

The staff were all very helpful and made sure the boys got to pull in fish. We didn’t get anything large because we were out of season, but we caught some very interesting fish. We all had a wonderful time.
