These waters are renowned for the abundance of Bluefin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Rockfish, Calico Bass, and more.

Take pleasure in keeping any fish you reel in, ensuring they adhere to regulations. Moreover, relish the convenience of having your catch expertly cleaned, presenting you with a dining experience as fresh as it gets!


Captain Ethan extends a warm welcome to anglers of all ages, including children, making it an ideal opportunity for a family day out on the water! Ensure you inquire about the availability of child-sized life vests, or alternatively, bring your own. The package includes provisions of food and soft drinks on board. However, prospective anglers are advised to procure a local fishing license before embarking on the adventure, with information readily available online or through consultation with the captain.


Your vessel for the day is none other than the "Hot Reeling," a 54’ Mediterranean vessel boasting ample space for up to 6 passengers. Outfitted with outriggers and all the indispensable tools no fishing aficionado can do without, the vessel includes onboard restroom facilities and three generously proportioned staterooms, ensuring the utmost comfort for everyone on board. Count on the "Hot Reeling" to be equipped with top-of-the-line tackle and fishing gear from the market, enhancing your chances of landing that coveted trophy fish.


The presence of a dedicated First Mate ensures that you have assistance throughout the journey, guaranteeing that everything runs seamlessly. It is customary to consider a 20% gratuity for the First Mate, who often works for tips. Be aware that certain species may be protected or require specific tags for retention, necessitating a thorough understanding of the regulations.
