Didn’t catch any fish. They tell you “fishing is fishing. Fishes aren’t guaranteed”. Did the afternoon trip and maybe that was not a good time to go. From my observation, the lures were in the wake of the boat and virtually on the surface. No downriggers were used. Few of us got sea sick and they gave us napkins and water. Crew was nice, spoke minimal english. After 2 hours of riding around we lost hope of catching fish and decided to call it and rode back for an hour.

Had a great day with the captain and first mate.  Good transportation to and from the hotel to the marina.  Crew was super helpful and ensuring we had lines in the water, focusing on both the fish and what we needed.  Late in the day we ran into seaweed and spent a bit of time keeping lines clear - that’s fishing….  We caught 5 dorado and 1 barracuda.  A bill fish was there we just could not get the hookup.  Good communication skills all around.  Well worth it., Thanks gentleman.

Trip of a lifetime for my family that we will always remember.  Got to see my son catch a monster King, which was by far way bigger than anything he has caught in his life.  The seas were pretty rough but our Captain and 1st Mate were top notch.  Definitely recommend and will use again on our next trip.

We had a great experience with Big Marlin. Captain Yustas was easy to reach and responded to emails with questions immediately in the weeks prior to our trip. He picked us up and was friendly and nice. We got to the boat and the crew was awesome on board. It was a great fishing day in terms of the water conditions. The swells were not too high which they said was lucky for us! Our three kids (12, 10 and 8) were with us. We all caught fish. It was a slow fishing day (that’s what they said other boats were experiencing) but they made sure we each got to reel some in. It was awesome. I would recommend Big Marlin for sure. If you join this charter, make sure you plan to stay for lunch. There is a little outdoor restaurant right on the beach that will cook your fish for you. We didn’t plan for that but will next time for sure!!!

Original boat had mechanical issues so we were switched to another boat to Gone Dog. The crew was great and we had a very good time. Wasn’t the best fishing day but they never quit trying to put us on some. We will be back. Eddie best first mate.
