My daughter and I had a blast fishing with Captain Joel and first mate Moose! He knew exactly where to take us to catch fish and he was a real pleasure to talk to. The first mate was quick to help us get our lines back in the water after every catch. We really appreciated the Gatorade they had on board for us (hot hot day!)! When we’re back down this way again we hope to go out with Ana Banana!
Have fished with Ana Banana in previous years. They moved their base of operation to near the vaca cut. Had to climb over 2 other boats to board the one we were going to use. I am 74, have had 2 hip replacements and have arthritis. Not the easiest experience. Boat was cramped and dirty. I do not want vibrio or fish handlers disease so I was not pleased boat had not been washed down. I wanted to fish the 7 mile bridge as we had done in years past. Captain said we needed shrimp and bait guy had not shown up. We fished the reef with pilchards and cut bait and we did limit on yellowtails and caught a cero. Captain worked hard to put and keep us on fish. I will not fish with AB again because of boarding and cleanliness issues. Probably just fine for a younger person.

Capt. Joel and 1st Mate Chris kept us busy and happy all day. After just a few minutes they made us feel at home and like we have known them for 20yrs. Both were eager to show us what to do and answer our questions. 1st cast…fish in the boat and it didnt stop. Even when we were making mistakes Capt. Joel was running around making sure we had fish coming in while Chris was baiting hooks as fast as we could reel em in. We certainly fed the sharks but that added to the excitement and thrill of the trip. 2 of our crew were on their first fishing trip and Capt. Joel made sure to make it count as he put us right on the Spanish Mackrel (which we thoroghly enjoyed that night at Castaways restaurant, staying till they closed). I will be back, I will recommend Anna Banana, and I can’t wait to catch up on hunting stories with Capt. Joel again soon. Made the vacation thanks!

We had a great half day trip with captain JoJo on his new boat! Thanks a lot!
Captain Joel and Captain Eddie were amazing. The rods were never without hooks! We caught so many fish and both were amazing teachers. I highly recommend that You book with Ana Banana! You won’t be disappointed!!
Marc Gillespie is Gregor Gillespies uncle. Even though Gregor is ranked 8th in the world in UFC he claims he’s a better fisherman than a fighter!
