Just returned from the most incredible fishing trip with Guatemalan Billfishing Adventures.
My husband and I both agreed that it far exceeded our expectations!
We were given the royal treatment from start to finish. We stayed in their magnificent Casa Philipps in Antigua. Breathtaking views of the volcano from their breakfast terrace. We had our own chauffeured van and a fantastic travel guide for wonderful sightseeing and shopping in Antigua.
Then we went on to the fishing part of our trip at the Billfish Inn in San Jose. We were met by friendly staff and a delicious cocktail. They took such great care of us throughout our entire stay. Cannot say enough about Captain Brad Philipps who has well earned his reputation as the best billfishing guide! You definitely cannot get better billfishing than this anywhere else. My husband and I caught and released 20 sailfish in one day! This was an adventure of a lifetime! Thank you so much to Captain Brad and his team! A special shout out to his two gillies on board the magnificent Decisive who helped us land all those fish. Highly highly recommended!

It is never too late to learn new things. I recently completed four days of fishing with Captain Philipps during which I was the only angler. The solo experience allowed me to absorb many tips and techniques from the premier billfisherman in the world, along with his crew. I caught 100+ fish during this unique trip. At the end of each day the Billfish Inn and Casa Philipps were comfortable and luxurious as usual. If you love the adrenaline rush that is fishing for billfish, I highly recommend this adventure.
Thank you to Brad, Cindy and staff. I will see you again soon.
Muchas Gracias,

My wife and I, along with two friends, made the trip with Captain Phillips over two days of fishing and three nights in a villa. I had previously been on two other deep sea trips in Panamá, another one off Rhode Island’s shore past Block Island, and three off Virginia’s coast, but nothing came remotely close to what we experienced.
Before setting out, by way of a lottery, I drew the first fish. Once clear of the brown water and enroute to the sailfishing grounds, Captain Phillips ran two lines behind the vessel. About two miles offshore, one of the rods bent about 140° and the fun began. I earned my first Blue Marlin flag after a 20-minute fight with a 400+ pounder and over the next two days, we landed (and released) 33 sails (in addition to the blue marlin) and a 25-pound mahi mahi which the crew sushied for us to enjoy on the spot.
Consummate professionals in every regard, I can’t imagine a better team to work with, better accommodations, or a more memorable experience than we had — but you can bet we will return soon to see if they can deliver. I give these folks my strongest personal and professional endorsement. You will not be disappointed.

Best fishing trip of my life! My wife and I took a cruise for her birthday. One of the ports was in Guatemala so I contacted Cindy at Guatemalan Billfish Adventures to see if they had a boat available, Cindy did an outstanding job reserving us a boat and communicating with me for the several months as we awaited our departure date, The day after we left L.A. on Norwegian Cruise Lines we were informed we would be arriving in Guatemala a day early. My heart sank as I figured we would have to miss our fishing expedition. Cindy secured us a boat for the day aboard Mijoo. The dock is right next to the cruise port and we could see the fleet from our portside balcony. The captain and crew were very experienced and professional. Mijoo was adequately equipped for the adventure! After a short ride out to the fishing grounds we set out lines and twenty minutes later we were catching fish one after another. Within 90 minuets we had caught and released three nice Sailfish and 4 Mahi Mahi. In total we caught 6 Sailfish and 14 Mahi's, and I had to cut the trip short by two hours besause I couldnt hold the rod any more, ( my wife reeled in two Mahi,s and I fought the rest). The crew accommodated all of my photo and video requests and provided delicious snacks , lunch and beverages of all types throughout the day! We did not get to experience the land packages offered but if they are anything like the fishing adventure , guests would be in for the thrill of a lifetime. M wife and I wish to extend our deepest gratitude to Cindy, the Philips family and the crew of Mijoo for the vacation fishing trip of a lifetime. If you are arriving by cruise ship or any other means dont hesitate to try them out and have loads of fun! David H

“We had a wonderful time at both locations. All of the staff were very attentive to our needs and requests. We enjoyed all the amenities at Casa Philipps in Antigua Guatemala. The view from the rooftop was incredible- we loved watching the volcano!! Our tour of the Old City and our volcano hike were great adventures.
The Billfish Inn was even better than we remembered! The food, drinks and service were fantastic! Jose and Isabella are top level chefs – we thought we were in heaven! We definitely had 5 star meals. We are still dreaming of the ceviche.
Captain Brad was the best, as always! We had so much fun on the Decisive even though we were kept busy with the lines! Each one of us caught more than one sailfish along with many Dorado. Henk and Omar did a great job assisting all of us with our catches.
Janine and Anita welcomed us and made us feel right at home. We knew we would have the best trip ever coming to the Philipps’ casas!
We all decided the trip was worth the 3-year wait!!
All our best,
The Janda family, USA"

Absolutely incredible weekend spent with Captain Brad and his team across Decisive!
The entire weekend was top notch, world class start to finish! The team had us hooked up with Big Sails two days in a row, and we’ll be back for those blue marlin that came into our spread.
Can’t say enough positive things about this sport fishing operation from the initial booking to the drop off at the airport.

This is fly fishing for billfish at its finest. It's a team sport and the entire crew has to be on top of their game to make it work. Brad and his mates Johnny and Juan are among the absolute best in the world at this. So, when opportunity comes along they are all set to take advantage of it. As it happened on the last day of my three-day trip in mid-November when we were able to catch a Grand Slam on fly gear--sailfish, striped marlin, and blue marlin. We had caught another blue two days previous, so we averaged a marlin a day! This among the many sailfish we encountered along the way. Epic billfishing!
The Billfish Inn was comfortable, the food great, the service wonderful. The airport transfers were fine.
I look forward to returning.

From being picked up at the airport to being dropped off back at the airport, the experience was nothing but fantastic. Brad, Cindy, and staff truly make you feel like you are part of their family. The food, service, accommodations, boat, and the fishing were perfect.
I have fished with many charter captains over the years and without a doubt Brad has a true passion for the sport. He's constantly working to find fish and is very serious about making sure his clients are having a great time. The best part about the fishing, he allows you to be as involved as much as you want. If you prefer to just sit back and allow them to catch the fish, he’s ok with that too. We plan fish many more times with Brad in the future and can’t wait to get back.

Hi Don,
Yes, we head out from the same port out of ‘Puerto Quetzal’. Fishing boats normally head out @ 7am and come back at 5pm.
Keep in mind that the top boats will change you for a full day of fishing even if you fish less hours.
If your party is 1-4 anglers, you can easily charter a 31ft boat that can charge according to the fishing hours.
Top boat (40ft) sells now for US$2,400 per day plus tips. Small boats (31ft) sells for US $1,200-1,400 plus tip.
For us to secure the dates, you need to send 50% deposit and the rest is due 6 weeks prior your trip date. Boat Captain will be able to bring you back at the dock before 4pm. Just let us know when you are ready to book, secure your date with 50% deposit and the rest is all handled.
Let us know if you have more questions!
