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.
