About Your Trip

Hit the water with Captain Angel and fish the inshore areas of San Juan! On this 4-hour night fishing adventure in one of the top Tarpon fishing spots in the world, Captain Angel will help you target these "Silver Kings," and maybe some Snook, Spanish Mackerel, or Horse-eye Jack.

You'll be fishing right at the home of these "inshore giants," located at the heart of San Jose and Torrecilla lagoons. These 6 lagoons interconnected by mangrove canals are a top 5 Tarpon fishing location Worldwide. Listen closely to Captain Angel’s advice - he knows where the fish bite!

Tarpon are acrobats of the ocean and put on a spectacular show in the air! Whether you’re using rod and reel or fly fishing, these sometimes 100 plus pound fish love to fight hard. Tides, weather, and moon phases play an essential factor in a Tarpon’s behavior, but these kings are always hungry, biting on both live and artificial bait. Bring your camera because catching a tarpon is a stunning experience that you will want to capture. These fascinating sport fish are catch and release. It only takes one battle with these prehistoric creatures to become completely mesmerized, and you’ll be longing to catch more.

Tons of fish love to feed at night. The big fish especially tend to hunt after the sun goes down. On top of feeding time, Captain Angel likes to depart in the evening to escape the heat as well. On these trips, you will target a multitude of different fish as you aim for an inshore slam!

Captain Angel will provide everything you need for a productive night on the water. He will have all rods, reels, tackle, and live bait (included in the price). Trips also include bottled water and a variety of soft drinks, but be sure to bring any snacks that you might need!

While Angel was helpful to recommend leaving at 6 am, the captain was late and the first boat didn’t start. We didn’t get our start until almost 7. At one point captain even said the tarpon best feeding is between 6 and 7 am. Had to remind the captain at one point that he promised more time at the end since we got a late start. Caught 1 very small barracuda. ...

In the end, not worth the $$$. Pretty expensive for a 4 hr trip.

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...

One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in my life. We rent two inshore boats for 4hours each and ended up with absolutely nothing. We see no efforts shown from the two captains, giving us the feeling of “ it is what it.” Totally awful experience and a waste of money.

Response from Captain Experiences:
As avid outdoorsmen here in the Captain Experiences office, we know how heart-wrenching it is not to catch any fish when you've been looking forward to the trip. I'm so sorry this was the case. We have extended a discount to you for another trip in hopes that the next trip will yield better results!

A great day on the water with a view of Old San Juan in the back ground. Boat was fully out fitted and the Captain and mate work like a well oiled machine. Great gear, fully stocked cooler, and and fish on. What more can you say?
