The fishing was very slow but we ended up catching a huge sailfish and got some great pictures. There was not a lot of communication, music, or interaction which made it a very long day. It got a little better the last two hours of the day but wish there was more interaction , more catching, and maybe more history of the things we saw while on the boat.

Great time will book with them again

We thought we would at least hold the fishing rods. We thought we would catch a couple fish each. The captain was the only one to catch two fish and only two of us got to reel them in. The lunch was bad. We would rather catch a bunch of little throw-back fish than just have an expensive boat ride.
