Capt took us through the bay to the canals in search of tarpon. We anchored near the mangroves and could see the swirling near the boat teasing us. We finally hooked into a smaller one, about 2 feet in length. My son had a blast reeling him in. We hung around a bit longer and hooked into a monster! Once it took the bait the reel started screaming as it took line. My son was struggled for a good fifteen minutes before landing it along side the boat with the Captain’s help. It was close to 4 foot long and Capt estimated it weighed between 50-60 lbs as he had 2 hands on it mouth lifting it up along side the boat! So much fun!!

I initially booked an off shore trip for my son’s birthday. The wind was high the whole week of our trip, making off shore unsafe, but Luis kept in contact with me and gave me a heads-up a few days before. We wanted to keep our booking and change it to in-shore due to the weather. It was still high winds but Luis really worked hard at making it the best experience and value. My kids loved him and they have amazing memories and first-time experience. Great communication, flexible options, easy to work with, hard worker, great value.

Capt. Luis is a knowledgeable seasoned angler. He took us to numerous differnt spots to catch the fish we were tagerting. Everybody on board caught fish. He was accesible at all hours leading up to the trip. We had to reschedule the trip by one day due to bad weather and he was consistently in contact to make sure everything went smoothly. I would reccomend Capt. Luis to anyone who wants to catch fish in PR.

P.S. Great way to see a differnt angle of the island from the water.

Capt Luis had us on the fish as soon as we were on the reef. We caught 3 mackerel and a baracuda, also had something big on that eventualy got down in the rocks and was lost. Unfortunately one of the people on our trip wasn’t feeling well so we asked to move inshore to calmer waters. We did not have much luck inshore so we moved back out to the inlet of the bay to finish the day and caught 3 yellowtail snapper. Great trip, highly recommend!

Trip was great - long review so please read it through.

When you book a trip, there are things the crew can control - the weather is not one of them.  We both independently checked weather reports and the wind was not supposed to be a factor - unfortunately it was.  This resulted in a longer ride out to rough waters where we were prepared to go “popping” for pelagics.  We were forced to go closer to shore for trolling.  Even this was a little difficult with the winds and no boats were catching fish.  That didn’t stop Luis and his mate Danny from working their tails off, putting multiple lines in the water for us, and eventually getting us a beautiful Mahi which resulted in some fresh sashimi prepared by the mate on shore, lunch prepared at the restaurant at the marina, and an additional few portions to bring home in our cooler. 

I’d recommend this boat for 2 anglers looking to have a fun time in San Juan.  First off, you’re in the harbor which is just beautiful and you get the seaside view of del Morro which is priceless.  Then the experience of bringing in fish in these beautiful waters was something I won’t soon forget. 

Thank you for a great trip guys!
