Best Fishing Trip Yet
From pick up, to an extra trip to retrieve a lost phone, this company is A+++
Fishing guide Little Dan was knowledgeable, described everything he was doing, and very upbeat.
The tour company themselves were very professional, the boat was immaculate, and could find no fault with this company.
Will be back to book with them again!!

Great fishing excursion!
This was our family's first deep sea fishing experience. We took our 14yo daughter and 11yo son. We were very impressed with the overall experience, from making the reservation to the trip itself. Jack was very responsive by email and the trip was easy to book. He contacted us a few days before our scheduled day to let us know about some rough weather and we were able to reschedule for that afternoon he emailed us. He personally came to pick us up at our hotel.
Kevin was a wonderful first mate. He let the kids do as much as possible. We only had a few bites during our half-day trip, but our son was ecstatic to reel in a barracuda. Our daughter got a little seasick and Kevin helped make sure she was as comfortable as possible. We were also impressed by our captain JJ who did his best to find areas with more fish. We would highly recommend this operation and look forward to doing it again when we return to Punta Cana.

Awesome fishing trip - cannot go wrong with the folks at Gone Fishing.
Gone Fishing takes care of it all from start to finish. Not very often will you find the attention to detail like we did with this group. Quick to answer any questions which was a refreshing change from other outfits I have used.
We had a good day fishing, landing 8 durado ( mahi-mahi ) 1 wahoo and 1 barracuda. Hooked up with a white marlin that we didnt boat and another large durado that we had all the way to the boat. Great, fun trip and would do it again in a heart beat.

Great day with an amazing team!
This was probably our best charter that we’ve been on! The crew was wonderful— so friendly, engaging & informative. We were hoping to catch a mahi, but did manage to land some barracuda... our 11 yr old reeled in a huge one!
My compliments to Jack, the owner, for running a top notch business— his crew JJ, Kevin & Jeff were great! I would highly recommend Gone Fishing for anyone looking to spend a full or half day charter with a knowledgeable and friendly team!!

Awesome time. Great crew!!!
Did a 4 hour private charter with JJ and Martin. The weather was overcast and we only caught one fish the first 2 hours, but once the sun came out we landed a 200lbs Blue Marlin. JJ was awesome as the captain helping us land it, and Martin was an unbelievable first mate with his coaching. We caught a 40lbs wahoo on our way back in. It's fishing, not catching, so we had low expectations based on the weather forecast, but landing that Blue Marlin made it a trip of a lifetime. Jack was great with his email correspondence leading up to the trip, and we had no issues with transportation back and forth. A 5* trip!!!

Great Memory
We had a 5 hr trip with Franklin and Wander this past week. We caught a Wahoo, Barracuda and a my 10 year old got his first Marlin ! On top of rigging/baiting Wander made us fresh Ceviche on board from our first catch. Awesome service ! I've been deep sea fishing a dozen times and this was one of the most memorable trips. Next time I'm in the DR I will be booking another trip with Gone Fishing.
