Gabriel was great! We caught a lot of Maui Maui. He spent extra time out on the water looking for bigger fish! They cleaned them for us and we had a great dinner! We really enjoyed this experience!

Great trip. Willy set us up with Captain Stephen and his awesome first mate. We hooked several nice mahi mahi and had them grilled up at the marina for an incredible lunch afterwards. Highly recommend!!

My son and I fished on Amy’s Dream, and had an amazing day. Captain Christian went over a plan with us before we shoved off, and we went out hopping to hook into sailfish. A few hits early on got the excitement going until we hooked and landed two beautiful sailfish pretty close to each other mid day. Was an awesome time and they di a great job coaching and assisting my 8year old to reel/land the fish nearly solo. Some more hits and excitement rounded out the afternoon. Can’t reccomend Amy’s dream enough, we will be back.
