Captain Marvin’s Deep Sea Fishing

Captain Marvin’s Deep Sea Fishing

Capt. Marvin’s is privileged to have excellent, experienced captains who will help you catch that big marlin, tuna or wahoo. One of the great advantages of deep sea fishing in Grand Cayman is that our deep water is not far from shore, so you do not have to spend hours of your time just getting to the fishing areas. They provide the fishing gear and bait, as well as the captain and mate for your fishing charter, and they offer both half-day and full day fishing charters. Their half-day charters are from 8 AM until 12 noon, and again from 1-5 PM; and their full day charters are from 8 AM until 3 PM. Upon request they will also provide a cooler with ice for your beverages and snacks if you would like to bring them along with you. They also provide reef fishing charters, and because the reef is so close to the island, you are not spending your valuable time and money getting to a far-off fishing site. Reef fish include grouper, snapper, and jacks, among others. Their crew will be happy to filet the fish for you. Reef fishing charters are most often scheduled as half-day charters (8 AM until 12 noon, and 1-5 PM) but if you like they can extend it to a full day for you. Price list and photos of our fleet are available on their web site. It’s highly recommended that you wear sunscreen and bring it along for frequent application; and a hat with plenty of shade protection. The tradition in Grand Cayman is that 1/3 of the catch (or an edible amount, whichever is smaller) goes to those fishing, and 2/3 of the catch goes to the boat. Let them know whether you would like a half-day or a full day deep sea fishing charter, and they will prepare a contract for you to include all the details of your fishing charter. They also offer shared charters in case you would like to share with 2-3 more people to make up a group of 4-5, which is the maximum they take on their fishing charters. Just give them the dates you will be there and they will do their best to put you together with another group for a shared charter. The cost of the charter is divided by the number of people fishing. They would love to guarantee that you will catch fish, but the fish don’t always listen. Let them know if you have any questions about fishing in Grand Cayman.
