"Excellent time with Capt. Skreech caught some amazing fish making memories with my son that will last a lifetime. Captain really knew what he was doing. Made it fun and easy for us to have an enjoyable experience. The amount of fish we caught was far far beyond expectations. I highly recommends a Rube bound charters and Captain Ryan, a.k.a. Capt. Skreech."

"My brothers in law and I recently had the pleasure of going on a fishing trip with Aruba Bound Charters, and it was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish! I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone looking to have a fantastic time on the water.
From the moment I contacted them to inquire about the trip to the final moments of our journey, their team was nothing short of exceptional. They were responsive, friendly, and knowledgeable, ensuring that all my questions were answered and that I felt comfortable throughout the entire process.
The day of the fishing trip was perfect. We set out early in the morning, greeted by Capt Skreech and Javier. The captain and the crew were not only skilled anglers but also great companions on the boat. Their passion for fishing was infectious, and they eagerly shared their tips and tricks, making the experience not only enjoyable but educational as well.
The fishing spots chosen by the captain were nothing short of remarkable. Within no time, we were catching some impressive fish! .
On top of the amazing fishing experience, the boat was well-equipped and comfortable, making the day even more enjoyable.
In summary, my fishing trip with Capt. Skreech and ABC was beyond our expectations. The level of service, expertise, and genuine enthusiasm from the crew made it an unforgettable adventure. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a beginner like us, I wholeheartedly recommend these guys for an exceptional fishing experience. We will definitely book with them again next year,
Oh and we caught fish too...
Tight lines,
