i have been on a few charters in Mexico and the Caribbean and I can’t explain how much this trip blows the others away!  Let’s start with the crew.  Luis and his first mate were punctual, hospitable, and all about getting us on fish.  You could tell they both take their jobs very seriously and want to make sure everyone has a great experience.  Second, the fishing.  We started out going for Marlin, and only having a half day trip, it gave us a pretty tight window to get on to them.  The first 3 hours were pretty slow with a couple Marlins sighted but no takers.  It was here that we asked Luis if it made sense to maybe do some inshore fishing to at least give the boys some excitement in the day…we thought we would catch a few Skipjacks and be done with it.  Luis changed fishing plans with no questions asked and within 10 minutes we were on a dorado double header…then another…then a skipjack double header.  The last 90 minutes were mayhem!  7 Dorados and we lost count on the Skipjacks!  These guys were absolutely awesome.

Wow, unbelievable! Within 15 minutes of arriving at our first spot,  we caught two striped marlin in the span of about 30 minutes. Both were about the length of the beam. We were very impressed. Also, probably pretty blessed to catch them at just the right time.  but I have a feeling, even if we had to wait longer or caught something less,  Miguel and Luis would’ve made this experience nonetheless very enjoyable . Absolute professionals they know what they’re doing. You can feel confident that you chose the right team.
On the way out, we got to see the beautiful arch and they took lots of pics of our group. The morning light was perfect backdrop on the cliffs and set the stage for a great day. It was a little rough going out and A few of us got seasick .but that’s right when we started catching the marlin so don’t feel bad if you need to chum the water. it’s all part of the experience, and you feel better afterwards. Thank you for an awesome time.

The crew was very friendly and really knew what they were doing.  We got on board at 6:30am and were pulling out of the slip within a couple of minutes.  We asked to fish for Marlin and he said he had caught 4 the day before and reminded us that there was no guarantee that we would catch fish as it. Is called fishing, not catching.
Once we got to his hot spot for marlin, we began to troll.  Anytime they spotted a marlin close to the boat they would cast out another live bait to try to catch the one they say.  They worked very hard to get us a marlin. It was not long until we hooked a marlin.  After a great fight, we boated a 8’ Striped Marlin.  We took pictures and did a catch and release. We ended up catching a second striped marlin about an hour later. 
We were extremely pleased with the captain and crew.  They were obviously experts and it showed. I would definitely recommend El Budster Pride and plan on fishing with them again. Other than some rough seas, it was a great day of fishing!

Check in directions and process was easy. Jumped on board and we immediately left the Martina and headed west for about 45 minutes. Set lines and had a our first fish before all the lines were set. Cut the full day trip short by an hour and a half due to rough water conditions. My boys were tough but when the bite slowed we decided we had enough. Crew was great, very hard working and committed to getting on the fish. A little bit of pressure to provide a big tip due to the trophy dorado but nothing out of line or offensive.  We ended the day with 8 yellowfin to 35lbs and 6 dorado with the two best being approximately 30 and 55lbs. Would have preferred better options to bring my catch home. It did seem as if they were not accustomed to people wanting to take their catch home. We did take a smaller tuna and dorado back to the resort, Pueblo Bonito Sunset,  it was absolutel. Next time I will bring an ice chest and my own vacuum sealer to save on the coat of prepping the fish be transport home on our plane. Also considering the airline requires the fish be completely frozen, I would not fish the day before I was headed home. All in all it surpassed ky expectations and checked off a life long bucket list dream of catching a trophy size bull Dorado. Would book with them again.

Father Son Trip
Highly Recommend
Fishing (first things first)
Great day on the water, at one point we had 2 hook ups at the same time.  I do think that 8 hours is required as we did not find fish till about 3.5 hours into our 8 hour day. 

2 striped marlins boated.
1 Mexican release (threw the hook)
Largest 101 inches Est weight 115, although the one that got away may have been bigger.

Boat and Equipment
Boat
Better than advertised.
Verly clean boat and clean head.  Cabin is 100% yours to utilize and music is available if you so wish.
Equipment
Full set of rods and top reels, two sets of attractors.
Both artificial and live bait used.

Crew
First rate captain and deck hand.
Captain advised from the dock that he would work hard and he did!
Deck hand kept everything neat and out of the way.  Worked the lines very professional at all times. When we did hook up the advice was calm, and they kept the stern and fighting chair pointed toward the fish.  Hard workers both.
