Negril is our most favorite place on earth. Hope y'all enjoyed it!
We are so glad we selected Negril for our first ever visit to Jamaica. We had a blast!
Negril...me too. Iconic.

Capt'n Bob and his boat is right out of Ernest Hemingway's era. Looks like you guys went pure native and had a really great time.😎🏝️🎣🐠🐟
It was a very unique perspective for sure. It looked like and old Hemingway era boat.

fun trip great video and experience
Yes it was! We had an awesome time meeting everyone. Thanks for watching and subscribing to our channel!
Dan,are you guys already back home? Been to Negril 3 times,was going to tell you about a real cool place to go for cocktails. You have to go to the top of the mountain, it's on a cliff,called Rick's Café. You can dive in from this cliff and climb up a steel ladder,sit at the bar and overlook the beautiful ocean. Mabe next time A. Great vid, glad you guys went!!!!
I hope you watched the whole video. We did a take of Ricks Cafe from the boat and we snorkeled the cliff area where people were jumping into the water. Seeing Rick’s from the water side was a unique perspective.
great video 🎉❤
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Awesome. We are on Bloody Bay next week at Sunset at the Palms. Love a private snorkeling trip to the cliffs..will keep our eyes open for Captain Bob. The reef isn't the greatest in Negril but at least you got to see a turtle 😊
" Captain Bob always here mon" 😅
Hope you guys have a great time! We sure did! 👍
Let us know if you hook up with Capt Bob while you are there and tell him Florida Fishing Couple sent you!
@@FloridaFishingCouple I definitely will!
great video. thanks!
Glad you liked it and appreciate the comment!
We are cooking breakfast and getting ready for Church.
Catching y’all’s video while the bacon is cooking in the air fryer.
Okay I had to edit comment , my wife and I are already on the internet checking this place out.
Micky C.
Man I can almost smell the 🥓 bacon! You will have a great time if you go. Let us know…
I love it. Thanks
Thank you, we appreciate your support!

Glad you watched now! Appreciate the support!
You two always crack me up! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
We have a lot of fun wherever we go! Thanks for coming along!
That was a great trip to Jamaica the seens were lovely.
The gear that you spear fish with can you please tell me what it's called! I'll love to try it.
Hi, great content guys 👍 we're thinking of visiting Negril later this year. When did you guys visit for this video?
We were there in August 2023. Awesome time!
You know captain Ron well this is Captain Bob. love it. 😂😂😂😂😂
I think these guys were brothers from another mother!
Great fish at resort
It was interesting for sure!
Nice trip. Guys
Yes it was! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Nice video guys. Looks like you had an awesome time. You guys didn't get to keep any fish? It looked like he gave to his friends and took the rest home...lol
Yes, we told him to keep the fish because we had no way of cooking them up. We are in it for the experience for sure!
I'm sure that wasn't the fishing boat you were expecting, when you got to Negril, you should have gone to hedonism 2,LOL, I know you would have had a good laugh and a good time too. But,I know better,Elizabeth you would have kicked my ass back to FLA for taking you to that resort LOL. GLAD YOU GUYS HAD FUN HAPPY BELATED ELIZABETH.
That was definitely not the boat we were expecting!! 😂🤣😂 What is Hedonism?
Well Dan,the word itself means pleasure and indulgence
The resort itself has a clothes optional beach, and the pool was top less. With a swim up bar and bar stools at the shallow end to sit at the bar. First time I went down there I stripped off my bathing suit at the beach and waitress came to my lounge chair to take my order and started laughing, what's so funny I asked,she replied this is not the nude beach,it's 100 yards north. Oops, we'll I was only about 25 or so.Enough said LOLLOL.
@@robertlittle8672 Wow! Ok, that would definitely had been a very different type of trip for us for sure!! Not exactly family friendly for the channel but sounds like fun for sure. You must have some great stories from that trip!! :-)
Yes, not for the channel, it was many moons ago. I'm 63 now,alot has changed, including me LOLLOL. HOPEFULLY I WASN'T OFFENSIVE. ALL WAS BACK IN THE OLD DAYS. Been married for almost 34 years now,very happy
@@robertlittle8672 Not offensive at all! Bet it was an interesting place to visit! LOL
9:32 I like how he shoved a rag round his fuel intake line into the yellow gas tank, you know this dude is a real fisherman!
All the while smoking a cigarette right next to the plastic gas can with a rag in the top!!
Great Video y’all!!! It looked like Captain Bob’s rod and reel selection was a little stiff!
You know it’s funny; you spend thousands of dollars over the years on the best equipment and then realize it’s the basics that work the best. It’s a humbling experience.
Are you guys rich and famous !!!! Looks like a great time. Enjoy
Maybe a little infamous! Definitely rich in friends, and life! Thanks for the comment and especially for “Following Us!”
Looks like yall had a good trip
Great trip. Would love to do it again sometime.
Good vibes 🙏🏽🇯🇲❤💯
You gotta come visit Portland on one of your trips, got some nice fishing spots and beautiful rivers🤙🏾💯
Maybe one day! We went through there one time a few years ago on a visit with friends. Would love to go back!
Great video 🍻 wooden panga 😂
We had an awesome adventure with Capt Bob! He made this. Def different toe of vacation for sure!
18:55 this place reminds me of beautiful Acapulco mex… so dope
Maybe that’s a future trip for us. 🤔
Nice video 😊
Thanks 😊 Appreciate you taking the time to comment!! 🤗
Enjoy
Thank you!!
You didn't bring y'alls son Heiko. Great video. Also if i ever see Dan in public I'm gonna give him a good ackeard hug.
Just warn me first! 😂🤣😂
Capt Bob been hitting that herb stalk.
You think? 🚬
Welcome to Jam Rock.
Nice, very nice!
Love them clickers LOL,and the blackfin too!!!!!
Man the clickers were driving me crazy!
Love you two, you've really grown your channel with great love and content. Hope to meet you some day!!
Where was the cave you snorkeled in at the end of your video?
Great video!
That was on the Royalton Negril property. We just walked out to the beach of the resort and explored around!
I love fishing
We love fishing too!! Thanks for watching!
fishing. i love fishing since i was 9 years old
I've been fishing since I was a kid too! There is nothing like it!
Yo Capt. Dan,
I was waiting for this vid....
Can't believe you didn't catch a Jamaican rock fish 😂😂😂
I'm with you on the clicker. Guess old Capt. Bob doesn't care about his clicker wearing out. I always take it off when reeling in the fish.
Who needs a theme park with a boat like Capt. Bob's 😁
Now if you had slanty eyes like mine, you wouldn't get busted checking the (ahem)... as you did in the bloopers, just saying 🤷😆
Cheers mon 🤙
As always your comments make me smile! Hope to meet up someday!
@FloridaFishingCouple I apparently seem to have a knack for making people smile. I'm goofy like that 😂 Then again my philosophy is life is meant to enjoy to the max.
We will meet up one day and it'll be a blast. In fact, I've been thinking. We have a few fishing tournaments every year, one being right after Easter. If you want more details, we can chat over email. Let me know.
I can't promise you that you'll catch an Antiguan rock fish but we can sure give it a hell of a try 😂😂😂😂
@@fungus4758 Yes, please hit us up on FloridaFishingCouple@gmail.com
Approx what speed were you trolling at when the blackfins hit?
Between 6 and 8 knots.
What month did you go to catch the turtles?sorar fishing? I always take my own every year
I think it was late July or early August.
wind the fish mon. I love Jamaicans, used to run a business there. Did anyone say to you, "soon come mon" (it will happen.....sometime)
I think Captain Bob said that about us catching fish before we did. Great people and great country. We will def go back someday.
We're you able to find any decent areas for snorkeling right off the beach on Bloody Bay?
We had a great time snorkeling right around the resort and by Ricks Cafe.
Love this very much how much did it cost to hire Captain Bob❤
Half of our lives in anxiety!! No really, it was fun and reasonable. Capt. Bob made the day!!
Jamaica 😂😂❤❤sweet
We had such a great time!
very interesting ! it is something i like to do.
how do u go about it ?

please let me know
Do you mean fishing or diving?
Kalik is the best!
We like Kalik too - that’s actually Bahamian. In Jamaica they have Red Stripe. The light was pretty good!
I have a question... did you inhale???? 😆 I hope so... it looked beautiful guys
There was lots of inhaling going on but not by us. We did however partake in some nice Jamaican rum!🍹

Oh yeah, one fine machine!!

You mean to go to Jamaica? Airfare, hotel, etc.?
@FloridaFishingCouple yes. do u know anyone there ? do u have friends? or u just when on your own ?
We just did some research online and went on our own! We met a ton of people while we were there but didn’t know a soul going in!
