Louis and Manuel from Big Marlin were absolutely wonderful. I have some medical issues which I didn’t know would affect me as badly as they did on the boat.  Even though I got sick on the trip and it had to be cut short, the crew was very sensitive to the situation and went above and beyond to make me feel better.  If you want a great fishing experience in the DR with a crew that cares more about the customer than just making money, you should book a fishing trip on the Sherlock boat with...

We caught a total of 11 fish mostly mahi mahi and a few large barracuda. The water was a little choppy but once we got used to it, we had the perfect time. Michael and Andre were fantastic and very easy to get along with! Would highly recommend fishing with them and looking forward to our next trip!

Got into fish pretty early ended up with a few nice barracuda and a number of mahi caught one big bull mahi probably 15lbs+! Boat was clean drinks and sandwiches provided captain was experienced deckhand was awesome overall great experience highly recommended!

Big group of 14 People with 2 boats operated by “Big Marlin” provided an excellent experience, booking process very easy, pick up was on time, both Fortuna and Sherlock crew did an awesome job. We had to cancel the 3rd boat since the other 4 people couldn’t make it to PUJ 5 days before and the deposit was fully refunded and Yustas fully understood. Total fished 6 mahi mahi or dorado. Recommend any of the 3 boats from Big Marlin.

We have been on fishing trips like this a handful of times but this one was hands down the best yet! Andy and Miguel were outstanding, accomodating, and knowledgeable of the area/fish. My husband and I did the 6 hour trip and it was the perfect amount of time! We caught several mahi mahi and a yellow fin tuna! Can’t wait to come back to fish with them again. Definitely the highlight of our trip!
