Captain Gabriel has been guiding trophy fishing excursions for many years, a passion passed down from his grandfather. He especially enjoys pursuing sailfish, yellowfin tuna, and marlin. An expert diver and certified in first aid, Captain Gabriel ensures both safety and skill on every trip. Assisting him is Douglas, the first mate, who holds his own captain’s certification and is an exceptional sport fisherman. Together, they have built a strong reputation and are eager to share their expertise and enthusiasm for fishing with all their guests. When you’re aiming for that unforgettable catch, these are the professionals you want leading the way.
One customer shared their experience: “Great captain, good time. I would book with him again.” However, the trip had some challenges. Originally planned from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., the outing began around 8:30 a.m. The group caught a single fish roughly two hours in, then trolled for another hour without success. After dropping lines for about 30 minutes, one of the two engines failed, cutting the fishing trip short. The return to shore was slow, and they finally docked around 3 p.m. To address the inconvenience, Captain Gabriel arranged a $200 discount. While the refund was appreciated, the customer hoped for a more productive day on the water.
We apologize for the disappointment and understand that no compensation can replace the opportunity to fish. We invite you to reach out to us directly so we can offer a special discount on your next adventure, hoping you’ll give us another chance to deliver the exceptional experience we strive for.
