About Your Trip

When choosing a trip with us, you're choosing to fish with a young and hungry local guide who strives to show his clients the amazing fishery his island home has to offer. Capt. Fernando will work hard to get you shots at fish, wether its tarpon cruising through the gin-clear flats or permit tailing on the reefs, he takes pride in the effort his displays to get you the opportunities at that fish of a lifetime.

Puerto Rico's southern coast is lined with endless flats teeming with life, and since the fish aren't as pressured as other top destinations around the world, it can be a very welcoming fishery for anglers of all levels. Depending on the weather conditions, Capt. Fernando will set either a meeting place at the boat ramp, or somewhere for him to pick you up so he can give you a ride if it's a longer drive.

You'll be fishing with top of the line gear, from the rods and reels to the skiff itself, we strive to provide you with the best. You can always bring your own gear, but rest assured knowing we provide everything that may be needed during the trip.

If what you read above seems like your type of trip, book now so we can set something up and get you on some fish.

Being part of the new generation of guides in Puerto Rico, I strive to leave my mark on the island’s fishing industry by performing to the best of my abilities every time I’m on the water.

Growing up in Puerto Rico, it’s easy to take for granted the amazing fishery that surrounds the island. Inshore fishing can often be overlooked and outshined by the offshore fishing, but I aim to give the island’s fly fishing capabilities its rightful place in the spotlight. After spending time learning from the island’s veteran guides and traveling around to different fishing destinations to learn from the best, I’ve set out to start my own business at 24 years old, opening one of the only local owned fly charters on the main island of Puerto Rico.

If you’re looking to have a good time on the water with someone who takes pride in how hard he works, look no further. Let Fernando have the pleasure of having you on the boat, showing you some fish and sharing a lot of laughs along the way!
