Thank you Capt Peter, We had a good 1/2 day fishing on th Seaiesta, we caught mahi-mahi and Bonita , the captain and crew work continuously to find fish and we caught fish throught out the whole trip. It was a good day!

Peter, the captain, and Dave, the deck hand, were both very nice and helpful. The boat was very adequate and had a bathroom which was nice and we were able to bring our own fully stocked cooler. We were allowed to go all the way to the top deck as Peter took us close by some local drilling rigs. It was a good experience and Dave was a pleasure to speak to about the island and the island lifestyle, we got to learn a lot.
That being said, everything was great except for the fishing. We were out for 6 hours and caught 2 small fish. We paid almost $1,100 and the fishing was not good. This was my first time and I had always heard stories of pulling fish in left and right. This was definitely not the case.
If you are looking for a great time with some great people and have the $$$ for a fun boat ride where you may catch some fish, then definitely book it. If you want to catch a lot of fish I would research and see how the fishing is for your time of the season. It was not good for us during the first week of January. Also we spoke with them the next day and they said they caught nothing.
Overall a fun experience and it’s not their fault the fish weren’t biting. I just may have spent all that money differently if I would have known I wouldn’t have even reeled in one fish.

Capt and Mate were both good.  They worked hard to get us on the fish.  We ended up with only 2, but I fish a lot, so I know there are good days and not as good days.  My main issue was with the weather actually.  I would never fish in Aruba again now that I know there are 8ft seas year round.  My wife chumed the water for us with her breakfast and was pretty upset with me for a couple days following.  It’s not easy to get her to fish with me, so I try to make sure she has a great time any time she goes and this wasn’t it.  I should’ve researched better ahead of time.

Again, Capt and Mate were fine, no problems there.  Just wouldn’t recommend fishing in Aruba in general unless you’re super salty and don’t mind some very rough seas.
