We booked the 46’ La Patrona during Spring Break 2023. The Chartiers Del Mar staff were very professional and friendly. They has us hooked into several black fin tuna within minutes of setting the lines. If you have the time we would recommend booking a longer trip to increase your chances of landing bigger fish. Definitely recommend this company.
To start off we had a disappointing catamaran trip two days prior and we’re a little better prepared to make sure it he expectations were spelled out before shelling out another grand plus tip.
We were a bit throne off when we arrived and the boat wat not here yet. Then it was El Patron that showed up so right away we started skeptical
After speaking with crew and captain we boarded the boat and enjoyed a full day of time on the water with family and friends and caught no less than 8 barracuda. We also got to help catch baitfish so we certainly had a great fishing trip. No complaints that matter we would seriously recommend to fishers out there. But I think it is important that expectations must be clearly defined prior to putting out your hard earned money. Thanks again to the crew of El Patron for a memorable experience we also bought some taxidermied fish a 48 inch and a 42 inch I’ll update you when those come on in hat experience expensive but hey you only live once!

We had an absolutely fantastic time fishing, we did a 10hr trip and caught over a dozen fish in the first 3hrs! Capt Arturo, Philip, and Riccardo did an excellent job of putting us on the fish, making sure we were having a great time, and even prepared fresh ceviche for us from one of our red snappers we caught! Definitely recommend and already thinking about the next trip!
Fantastic trip with the crew of 3. We caught 7 fish in 4 hours- yellow tail snapper, barracuda, tiger fish and a large grouper! The captain and crew were excellent- trawling to different locations for different experiences. They set the lines and bait and we reeled ‘‘em in! Really helpful crew - can’t say enough. Highly recommended- we would use again. Thanks captain Jorge!
We had an incredible time. The captain took us directly to a couple hot spots. The crew did an amazing job with the rigging. Had lines running everywhere and no tangles or problems. I was very impressed. Caught a huge sailfish, tuna, snapper, and some big jacks. Been on a dozen or so charters and I have to say this was the best I have enjoyed so far. I would highly recommend them.
