Had a great morning with Captain Tom and Nomar, hand reeled a wahoo in and caught a Mahi on the reel. Awesome time would recommend and rebook next time I’m in town. Highly recommend this charter. Andy P.

    We had a wonderful 4 hour afternoon fishing with Captain Tom. I know a lot of people want like 20 fish, but everyone that wanted to fish caught one and we had more than we needed for dinner. We were very happy with what we caught and Captain Tom helped prepare it for us to take to the restaurant to cook. They had water and soda on the boat, which was nice since we had 8 people in our party. Plenty of space to sit and see at all times. Chris was amazing! He worked his butt off and was so kind to the kids and teaching them. It was actually awesome to watch him with the whole process, like a work of art when he would make bait. I would highly recommend them to anyone and use them again for sure.

      We went on a six-hour morning trip with Captain Tom and Chris and had an amazing time! It was our first deep sea fishing adventure and we loved it. Tom and Chris have a great time fishing and you will too when you go with them. They had everything set up and ready and were great in helping us get the hang of things. We ended up catching 9 fish. 8 bonitos and a marlin. The marlin released right when we reeled it in, but it was a highlight all the same! We plan to charter them again when we go back.

        The captain and his mate were excellent!! We did a half day afternoon trip and it was great! Caught two bonito, a tuna and a reef shark! The mate worked super hard to keep bait fresh and change up lures and they were super nice. Highly recommend if your looking for a nice boat and fun trip

          Captain knows how to put you on the fish and how to handle the rough Aruba waters. Excellent mate too. We landed 2 large Wahoo and a small Albacore. Can’t say enough about the captain. Kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. I’m a boat captain on Cape Cod and this is how I treat my customers too.

            This was our first trip with Tom and it was excellent, caught a massive swordfish and wahoo. Both the captain and first mate were top notch. Would 100% book again .
