Open Charter
Description:
You want to go fishing but your wife loves the beach? Don’t want spend hundreds on chartering a boat to go fishing? We have the solution for you. On our Open Fishing Trip you sign up per person. Every Tuesday and Friday morning we take a maximum of 6 guests and troll for 4.5 hours. If you are lucky there might only be two or three people on the boat but we go out anyway. We troll for Wahoo, Barracuda, Tuna and Mahi Mahi. If the conditions are right we go to the most Eastern top of Curacao and troll around the point.

Half Day Charter
Description:
If you are with a small group of friends or family or just want to catch all the fish yourself then a 4.5 hour private fishing trip is the way to go. We troll and free line live bait for Wahoo Mahi Mahi Barracuda Tuna and Marlin. We head out to the East Point of the island. This is where the currents hit our island first and the bait is brought up from the depths. Big fish are waiting on the plateau around the point. We will fish in waters about 100m / 300 ft deep using a variety of live, dead and artificial baits.

6 hour PRO trip
This 6 hour fishing trip for the serious angler takes you far offshore to the uninhabited island called Klein Curacao. This little 2 miles long banana shaped island holds the best fishing grounds in the region. Live bait is easy to get and free lining bonito in the deep waters around the points almost always brings big wahoo. We also use our spinning rods and jig for yellowfin and blackfin tuna. During the way to and from the island we troll at a higher speed for Marlin. We have caught Blue Marlin, White Marlin and Sail fish when coming across the 750m/2250 ft deep water between the two islands.

Full day fishing
Our 8 hour trip is ideal for the avid fisherman who also wants to see the little island called Klein Curacao. We run 16 miles offshore while we troll the deep waters between Curacao and Klein Curacao for billfish such as Marlin and Sailfish. When we arrive at Klein Curacao we change the baits and fish for Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna and Barracuda. Fishing techniques used are free lining live baits and trolling. If we come across a bait ball we will also have our casting rods ready. Around noon we head for the beach to have lunch. There is time to go on shore to walk the beautiful beach and to swim with the sea turtles as the feast of our chum. We have snorkels and masks on board free to use. On the way back we troll the 750m/2250 ft deep water between the two islands for Marlin for about 1.5 to 2 hours.

Wicked tuna afternoon trip
This 5 hour night trip is one of our favorites and best catching trips. We head out at 4 pm to one of the oil tankers that drift about 5 miles offshore. The tankers are patiently waiting for their turn to go into the harbor of Willemstad and drift east on the trade winds at about 1.5 knots. At night they put on their floodlights and this attracts bait up from the depth. Tuna and other species feed on them in turn. We fish with jigging rods and small jigs dropping them deep and working them up. Total catches over a 100 kilo / 200 pounds are no exception here. Be prepared for some painful arms the next day.
