The boat is in good shape but a bit pointeless as the fishing equipment (mainly the lures) was very limited. We were 5 on the boat and could barely use 2 to 3 rods.
Bonite fish were jumping all around us, other boats were catching fish one after the other and we couldn’t catch anything because of the very limited lures on the boat.
The crew didn’t speak English, and didn’t seem to know what they were doing.
Very disappointing when you pay 2800 AED, and when the manager reply to your feedback that “you should have checked the equipment before” and “next time you should choose another company!”
I have been fishing for the last 20y, and was very disappointed by the way this is handled.
Worst experience ever with a fishing charter, we have made the booking for life bate fishing in the Yellowfin 4 boat ( 7 pax)
When we arrived the captain said that we will only do trolling, we contacted their customer service and no response from them for an hour, the group has returned all the way to Dubai without fishing !!
The captain has confirmed that there will be full refund of the deposit and the customer support said that there will be no refund “ we decided not to go” they have not returned anything yet.. s
Caught exactly zero between us. Nice boat trip.
Good day however they could not speak well English, we didn't receive explanations on how to fish and they had no idea of how much it would cost to fry the fish in the nearby restaurants and we didn't get a good deal in the end. It is possible to eat it in many ways and no explanation was given They just told us they could not give us any recommendations for after.
Great overall experience, thank you to Rebecca for helping to get us organized and Captain Chin who was knowledgeable about the right spots to go and ensured we caught plenty of fish!
Very enjoyable and would definitely recommend to others!
