# Full Day Sportsman/Enthusiast Charter

**Guidekin's take:** Target tuna, mahi mahi and ono around offshore buoys on a private tour for your party, with light tackle as an option. Fishing gear and an iced cooler are included; bring your own food and drinks. 4.97 from 67 reviews at €1617 per group/vehicle for 8h, priced per group.

In our comparison: #2 of 5 in Fishing Charters, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

The Full Day Sportsman (Extended) Charter is 8 Hrs. of fishing! This allows enough time to check all the buoys in a 40 mile range. This almost guarantees you will catch more fish than anyone! 

We can also light tackle the buoys for Tuna, Mahi Mahi, and Ono, if you choose. 

The "Cowboy" is a very comfortable 35’ Bertram, for you to relax and enjoy the experience...until you're on and adrenaline is flowing! 

*In addition we will fillet and package your fish and provide complimentary photos/videos of your experience.
