Off to Gran Canaria next week. I'm already booked in for two days fishing with the Dorado. Was wondering if anyone had any info on cheaper charters in the area?

Try the BLUE MARLIN 3,, out of PORTO RICO, will only take 4 on board for the Marlin and give you 3 Rods each ,, he also does reef and uses very light gear like 12lb rods great sport ,, for the MARLIN he charges 120 each.. its expensive i know,, others are taking up to 8 or 10 for 65 ,which means ur lucky to get a rod,, There are 6 boats working out of Porto Rico so big choice,just walk on to the Marina and they all have a booking kiosk. Hope this helps and best of luck with your trip :D
