My 13 year old son has fished all over but never caught a Marlin so he said that was I. His bucket list. Through the expertise of professionalism of the crew they made magic happen. Not only did he hook six he brought r there to the boat. It was amazing watching a 90 lb boy real in 225 lb Black Marlin. It also funny after awhile watching the boats swarm around and follow us. We’ll be back and we’ll use them again.

We had a great time on La Patrona. Layout was fine and spacious. Adrian and Lesandro(hope that is spelled right) worked hard to put us on fish. We landed 5 sails and had several more bites. The lunch was some of the best we’ve had on any fishing boat. Besides fresh sashimi of course! Thanks again for putting us on the fish.

Fishing conditions were tough for all boats the day we went, but the guys tried their best to put us on sailfish. We had 5 bites and caught and released 1 sailfish. Adrian, Jordan & Lee were so nice and accommodating. The lunch was fabulous. Recommend!

Had an 9 hour trip on La Patrona and did very well for the rainy season. Caught 3 big yellowfin tuna and a sailfish. Captain Adrian got us on the tuna and then later a sailfish. The mate Lizandro never stopped working changing out lures and switching over for different strategies throughout the day. The lunch of barbecue chicken hit the spot and we had the tuna tonight for dinner and it was delicious. Thanks amigos.
