SAN JUAN PUERTO RICO GAME FISHING

Hi Coddy
There's a very large marina in the 'Old Town' area of San Juan where a number of charter boats are based. As well as private, sole charters some will also put together shared charters. Given the costs that might possibly be of interest.

April is prime time offshore, trolling, for White Marlin and Dorado with a possibility of a Blue Marlin. But, as an alternative, particularly if sea sickness is an issue it's also prime time inshore for Tarpon. That can be great fun and, given your Dad's age, less strenuous than handling heavy trolling gear in the chair.

It's many years since any of our members fished the island and, if you have the time, it might be worth wandering around the marina in the afternoon, looking for release flags on the boats outriggers and talking to the crews before arranging a charter. One successful operation that always features is this one - http://www.prfishing.com/ -Mike Benitez - or a slightly smaller offshore boat, and an operation that also Tarpon fishes, is here - http://www.fishinginpuertorico.com/ .

Hope your Dad enjoys his birthday treat!
