“Dejlig fisketur med gode fangster af bundfisk. Veloplagt kaptajn, som var meget serviceminded. Ikke nogen gevinst ved trolling. En god ide kunne være at udvide med "flyfishing"/aktivt kastefiskeri efter pelagiske fisk.”

“It was a lot of fun and beautiful being on the water. However I wish we got more guidance on how to actually catch the fish. The guides were the only ones to catch any fish other than one man that was using 3 rods which doesn’t seem fair. It was advertised that we would go to a spot to snorkel & swim. We did swim for 10 minutes but there was no where to snorkel so that was disappointing. Lunch was great, the transportation was great, staff was very friendly.”

“I'll start by saying the scenery was beautiful. The host was a nice guy but definitely led on that it was more than it was. We were out in huge seas, trolled for 4 hours and only at the 3.5hr mark we got one small tuna. We heard every excuse under the sun as to why no fish. The lunch was ok, no snorkelling gear was offered and a swim was offered in a bay full of Jelly fish. we then finally had the opportunity to "bottom fish" a short time before it was time for us to be back at Port. The fishing gear was old hard to reel,…”

“Great day trip. A bit of confusion when booking as the description had 8am start and only 2 pickup locations with surcharge outside these zones. Please note that hotel pickup is actually included and we were picked up at 9am in a van (Get Your Guide, please update your info online). We had a nice group size of 9 (shared trip) and left pier around 10am. We had 3 beginners in our party who quickly learnt how to use the rods and then lots of fishing time. Not many bites in the morning ( few small fish but enough to thrill the newbies), then onto a local bay for lunch.…”
