I am an avid fly fisherman in freshwater but am a beginner in salt water, my girlfriend is a true beginner. We had so much fun today! We caught a wide variety and many fish. The excitement and laughter was non stop! Antony and Mike were a joy to be around and super helpful. We had a kitchen at our rental so we kept fish to cook at home, they even filleted them for us! 10/10 would recommend for a fun, easy, carefree day of fishing. Antony is an amazing captain! We caught grouper, snapper, trigger, grunt, butter, etc.

Anthony and Mike were great, they rescheduled us for what we ask thought would be a day of better weather. The water was rough, but I requested we troll for Mahi and wahoo. They committed and we gave it our best shot. Caught 4 barracuda, a nice mahi, and had a couple wahoo bites. Best part, was Anthony knew we had several folks to feed so he hooked us up with a few extra filets so we could make a memorable meal. Mike and Anthony went above abs beyond to get what we wanted… even with weather that wasn’t ideal. They are genuinely good guys and know how to fish.

We originally had a different date scheduled but the weather was awful and they worked with us to reschedule and made sure we got to go. They took us to a lot of different places just to make sure we caught some fish. Also, they were very accommodating. Even if you’ve never been, they will teach you what to do and help as much as possible. We had a blast and would def go again!

Both Captain Anthony AKA Papa Smurf and First Mate Mike were professional, personable and knew exactly where to go catch fish.  And everything on the boat was immaculately clean and very organized…no clutter. Although I booked the trip for bottom fishing,  Captain Anthony wasted no time and trolled on the way out to the reef. While trolling, we caught a barracuda and hooked into a couple big wahoo. First Mate Mike successfully hooked the wahoo. Unfortunately, I dropped the fish when I
was given control of the rod and real….my bad.  If I have the pleasure to fish with Captain Anthony again, I’ll do better. Very good bottom fishing..we caught several butter fish, some triggerfish, and a couple of groupers When we came back in, Captain Anthony was generous enough to give me several fish to take back to my hotel. And his wife AKA Smurfette was kind enough to drive me back to my hotel. It was definitely obe of my best days during my 10 day stay on the friendly island of Sint Maarten!!

We had a wonderful time onboard the Papa Smurf. Did some bottom fishing and between 4 of us probably caught about 25-30 fish total. The captain and crew took great care of us. They did an especially great job with my 6 year old nephew. Helping him catch the biggest “edible” fish of the day.  I would highly recommend this charter for anyone looking to have a great time on the water and catch some fish.
