We took a half day trip with Jose and Bryan. The water get rough near the southern tip but that’s where the fish were biting. We caught a nice size Mahi Mahi to keep for dinner, a Sailfish that broke the line, a marlin that got away, but then a beautiful, big Sailfish we brought in and released. It was a fantastic day and Jose and Brian were GREAT! Highly recommend this charter!

Excellent afternoon on the water with Driftwood Fishing - all possible because of their outstanding crew -- Capt. Jairo, Jose, and Neomar. It's amazing to watch this team in motion as they prepare lines and handle everything but the fun part -- reeling in those fish. Learned so much about the island and caught plenty for our dinner which was prepared to perfection at the Driftwood restaurant following our voyage. Excellent value and awesome experience -- THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Once again the “Driftwood” charter delivers! Captain Jairo, First Mate Jose, & Second Mate Neomar work together like a Swiss watch to produce results. A picture is worth 1000 words.

We went out for a 4 hour morning trip with Captain Jairo, Jose and Sergio.

We were warned that as it was a full moon the fish may feed at night, however we were told they would try to find us fish.

I’ve been out fishing before but never dared have a go but Jose and Sergio were fab and made sure I caught my first fish!

We ended with 2 mahi, a little yellow fin tuna and a few bonito. They kept our lines baited all morning and put a hand line out.

Later that night we ate our catch at the Driftwood restaurant. A great day

Went out for a four hour charter with capt. Jairo and Jose. Had alot of action for the time i fished. Had about 10 barracudas and lost a few whahoos. If you want tuna or mahi mahi or bottom fushing recommend to book a 8 hr trip. Capt n mate were very friendly ,knowledgeable and worked hard to keep fresh baits on the line.
