I've been on this boat over 15 and I've nearly always enjoyed it. I mostly go by myself, sometimes I go with my mother and sister. The pros out wait the negatives in my opinion. Amazing crew members, especially Hadrian,Bernie and Office Jeff. Always there, if there was any problem and quick to solve it. They stop at nothing to help you. The locations seems the same, though the fish are definitely different. The boat is clean and very well maintained. It is an all around very enjoyable trip. Though there are some negatives. The toilets do not flush, or at least no one flushes it, this doesn't bother a lot of people though. The price is to high especially if you are a tourist. Vicky is a bit arrogant and not very friendly, on the other hand Jeff is very nice. The 2 worst problems are : 1) very often it is overcrowded, tons of people on the boat. Due to some factors everyone has to be on one side of the boat at daytime, causing a lot or lines to tangles. I lost a nice bonito because of the lines tangling. At night time it is better because there is no restriction to placement. 2) the diversity of the fish. At daytime you mostly catch bonitos, which are worthless in terms of food. Sometimes you get king fish, snappers and rarely Bilfish. At night you get all types of small snappers, grunts and rarely grouper. I notice that often, people catch fish that are too small to keep yet hide them in the cooler, the mates don't notice it and it's frustrating, because, fish like yellowtail snappers' population is decreasing and those people aren't helping, if the people with the illegal fish are caught, the reward fleet is punished. The mates name all these fish like cobia but I've never seen one. BIG problem with fishing at night is, the back of the boat is the best place to fish. People at the back catch buckets full of fish while other fish catch way less. The back is reserved to friends of the mates/cap, which i find quite unjust.
Comparison day and night.
Night: night time is great if you are impatient, you got bites every 20 seconds, though half of he time the fish are too small to keep. Night is very relaxing too, you go to pretty shallow water around 40ft.
Day: day is for more seasoned anglers. We fish at around 150-200 ft and catch a lot less fish, mostly bonitos. If your patient you can catch big muttons, kingfish, amberjack, Spanish macks and tuna.
