The Makaira Mayhem strikes again! 2-2, 22 lbs. Mahi and released this beautiful 80+lbs. White Marlin! Not bad for a 4 hour trip at 3 to 6 miles in front of San Juan Bay Harbour near the "c" fish aggregate device. For charter information go to www.prtarponconnection.com.

It's official, welcome the Makaira Mayhem a 2015 Sea Hunt BX 24 BR, to the Puerto Rico Tarpon Connection family. This super bay boat will allow us to go inshore and offshore; do live baiting, fly fishing, high speed jigging and much more! Here are some pictures of the offshore activities in the waters just offshore of San Juan Harbour, 25 minutes from the dock!

Afternoon Trip
Cody & Molly were heading on a cruise and decided to come to San Juan early and do some fishing. The baits and the weather had been challenging, so I went early and caught bait. We went out with a livewell full of greenies and three hours from the high tide. Five minutes into the first drift, boom, first fish, Molly struck first with a very respectable Crevalle jack, then a tarpon and finally Cody got on the board with his own tarpon! We ended up 5 out of 10, 4 tarpon and 1 crevalle jack! Not a bad idea starting a Royal Caribbean International cruise with a great day of fishing!
