Patrick and his son, Alex, were fantastic guides! They didn’t take us fishing - they took us CATCHING. First, we headed to a point to score some bait fish. I have no clue how he knew where to pitch the net, but within 2 or 3 throws Patrick had us set up with all the live bait we needed for the morning. We then headed out to troll a pass between two islands and snagged a few barracuda, moved closer to a reef and grabbed some snapper, stopped for a little snorkeling, then caught a few more random fish before heading back in for lunch.Added bonus : The resort prepared our catch for us - snapper ceviche when we returned and barracuda three ways for our dinner. Most of all, we truly enjoyed our conversations with both Patrick and Alex. We learned so much from them about life in Belize. They’re both guys you’d want to sit and have a beer with.We’ll be heading back to Hopkins with our family in the future and will definitely be booking with Patrick again when we return.
