A world class fisherman, and an even better man, Captain Pepis can do it all, and can cater your trip to whatever fishing experience you have or activities you'd like to fit in on your trip. So whether you want to fish, snorkel or just enjoy a trip on Captain Pepi's boat (or a combination of all 3!), this is the perfect activity to do with kids, family or a group of friends. The waters of the West Coast of Puerto Rico are known as the Mona Passage, where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. The fishing in Rincon is world class: ESPN's Billfish Extreme Release League rated Western Puerto Rico as #3 in the world for Blue Marlin fishing. The tuna, wahoo and mahi-mahi fishing is top-notch as well. The nearby deep sea waters are warm, clear and blue water and make for excellent fishing throughout the whole year! Rates include tackle and refreshments (water and soda). Feel free to bring your food or snacks, there is enough cooler space for anything you might want to keep cold. While this trip isn't nessecarily a grocery run to fill the freezer, Captain Pepi has no problem sharing the catch. You will always be able to take enough fish to eat for yourselves and your traveling party. He can also help make arrangements with local restaurants in town to have your catch cooked for you once you're back at the dock. Captain Pepi recommends you dress in light clothing, cap/visor and boat shoes/sandals are alsi recommended. He usually keep enough sunblock on the boat, but if you wish you can also bring your own. In terms of things you should not bring: No bananas will be allowed onboard! This is an old fishing superstition, but take my word for it, there may be some truth to it. Please no hard-soled shoes on the boat either (rubber tennis shoes are fine). You may bring beverages or beer, but no glass bottles please. Also, please bring sunscreen, but no spray sunscreen as it causes the deck to become slippery. Captain Pepi is excited to take you on an excellent catered experience, and while species are never guaranteed, see his Seasonal fish Calendar below for an idea of what species will be available during your trip: JANUARY: Wahoo, Kingfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Sailfish and Blackfin Tuna FEBRUARY: Mahi-mahi, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, Kingfish and Blackfin Tuna MARCH: Mahi-mahi, Wahoo, Kingfish, Yellowfin Tuna, and Blackfin Tuna APRIL: Mahi-mahi, Wahoo, Kingfish and Blackfin Tuna MAY: Blackfin Tuna and Mackerel. JUNE: Blue Marlin, Blackfin Tuna, White Marlin, Longbill Spearfish and Mackerel JULY: Blue Marlin, Blackfin Tuna, White Marlin, Longbill Spearfish and Mackerel. AUGUST: Blue Marlin, Blackfin Tuna, White Marlin, Longbill Spearfish and Mackerel. SEPTEMBER: Blue Marlin, Blackfin Tuna, White Marlin, Longbill Spearfish and Mackerel.

trip description for Puerto Rico Tarpon Adventure in Carolina

Get out there on the Torrecilla and San José Lagoons, two of the most exciting inland fisheries in San Juan, Puerto Rico! Your trip will be run by one of five captains—Armando, Randy, Karim, Carlos, or Pantoja—all business partners and experts in inshore and nearshore fishing with several decades of combined experience. This Puerto Rico charter fishing experience includes not only world-class Tarpon and Snook fishing, but also incomparable scenery and wildlife. The location of these beautiful lagoons guarantees the calm waters, which means no seasickness! For our hardcore fishing enthusiasts, the best part of Tarpon fishing in Puerto Rico is that it's a year-round activity! The waters around San Juan are known for having a large concentration of Tarpon, but they also produce big Snook, Jacks, Lady Fish, Barracuda, and Snapper. San Juan Tarpon love the rain and cloudy days. Usually, fishing here is best when its cloudy or pouring rain! So unless a hurricane is making landfall, you can expect to go out and chase these "Silver Kings" no matter the weather. You'll use Threadfin Herring, Anchovies and Sand Perch for bait—all of which these fish love to hit! For those customers that prefer artificial lures, he has an excellent set of lures as well. In addition, if you're interested in fly-fishing, this is a perfect environment to throw some flies! Just let your captain know ahead of time so that he can bring fly rods and flies. You'll be fishing from the deck of an 18' Action Craft skiff, powered by a 150-HP Evinrude engine. She's kitted out with a Garmin fishfinder, live well, storage area, Minn-Kota Trolling Motor, and a great casting deck for light tackle fishing or fly fishing. Your captain will provide everything you need for an awesome trip, including rods, reels, live bait, and tackle. Just bring proper clothing, a hat, and a pair of polarized sunglasses and you'll be good to go! Read More

    Frank maintained contact up to the day of the Charter. Arrived on time and well prepared. He was knowledgeable of the area and was a great experience. We caught tuna, wahoo, barracuda, red hind grouper, yellow jack, and trumpet fish. Definitely recommend Frank.

    Captain Angel and his crew mate were fantastic they worked very hard to put us on fish but it didn’t work out. One high point was when we returned to the marina Captan Angel spotted some Tarpon so he baited a rod and tossed it in and then let my 7 year old Grandson reel it in. He was really excited to fight that tarpon and talked about it all night. Thank you Captain Angel for your kindness.
