From pickup at my resort to drop off back at my resort post fishing Craig and Shaun are awesome!
I did the half day morning trip which is 6:30am (pickup at hotel) to about 11:00am depending on when you get to the boat. Craig (the captain) picked me up and it was a great conversation on the way to the boat. Craig is super nice and very laid back and welcoming. Once arriving at the boat I met Shaun (first mate). Shaun just like Craig is super chill and laid back.
Once arriving to the boat we were immediately ready to go. Once you hop on the boat we set our way to the ocean. The day I went out was super calm so it was hard to tell when you were actually out of the bay and in the Caribbean at first. About 25 minutes into the trip we had two hits within 10 minutes of each other. Unfortunately we couldn’t get either of them to stay hooked but the first hit was pretty loud.
Unfortunately the water was almost too calm. You always want a little wave action so the fish that are cashing the bait fish/lures can’t differentiate the stuff you are using form the bait fish in the water. Craig and Shaun had up to six rods in the water at one time and we ended up staying out on the water an additional 45 minutes hopping to catch something.
On the way back in I caught a barracuda which was awesome cause that was a first for me and checked that fish off my bucket list. Just FYI if you catch a barracuda you can’t keep it to eat as they do have deadly toxins in them most times but they are fun to catch.
During the trip Craig will let you play whatever music you want on the boat through his blue tooth setup. I am a fan of listening to what the locals jam to so we rocked to some Jamaican dancehall music that was popular at the time. (Shaun - The plane song man!...I love it now).
Post fishing trip I was able to get a picture with the Barracuda I caught as well. After getting everything sorted out from the trip Craig gave me a ride back to my hotel. On the way back to my hotel we had to stop at his place to get some paper to fill out since I paid with my card. Met his family and they are very awesome and welcoming people.
If you are going to Jamaica and staying in the Montego Bay area go with Shaun and Craig! They are upfront with everything from what boat is available at the time you can go out to what bait/lure setups you are using and the fish you are targeting. I already told Craig next time I come to Jamaica I will look them up again and bring some more friends out as well. If you get to do a whole day with them def. go. I didn’t want to make my wife stay at the resort all day by herself or otherwise I would’ve gone out all day with these guys.
Craig - Don’t forget man you guys are always welcomed to come visit in Houston! We will go fishing here!
