Looking for Fishing Charter that someone has used

Cold in NY · 12-09-2007, 10:25 PM

We booked our trip for the 3rd week of January and are looking for a recommendation from someone who has used some of the charters not just links telling us about them. Has anyone been on a charter besides that guy who caught the 5ft sailfish? We were thinking of Kenny's Toy or teaser? any suggestions would be so helpful! Thanks!!

I am leaving for Aruba in just a few hours (I am also pretty cold in NY as well) and will be chartering a boat tomorrow. I'll let you know how it was and which one we finally selected.

I don't know how much you fish but I didn't like it on the Dorothy

They don't let u do anything
He puts the bait on and lets line out
One fish at a time is caught
If 5 people go on and only 4 fish are caught the fifth person doesn't get a chance
Boat is almost entirely on automatic pilot even if you are about to run into another boat

We used the Melinea and Capt Pete was great! We caught big a big mahi mahi and 2 wahoo's! We went on Monday the 22nd. The seas can be very rough! My boyfriend was sick over the side of the boat! Very worth it though, we were able to eat the fish that night!
