Tom Van Der Woude

Member since November 2022 Oranjestad, Aruba

Background: Capt. Tom was born in Aruba and has almost been on the water ever since. At the age of 13, Tom started working on (charter) boats and realized he loved what he was doing. In 2004 he decided to get an education and returned 10 years later. Since then, he has been back to doing what he loves - fishing, boating, and being on the water. Finally, in 2022 he was able to open his own charter company - High Times Charters.
Techniques: i love catching big fish; rod or handline! Basically any technique as long as we get the fish in the boat :)

4 Hour Trip – Deep Sea Fishing (PM)

If you want a fun, interactive day on the sea catching fish..,this is not your tour. If you want to hold your fish up and get a pic of it…this is not your tour. If you want the crew to care about you…this is not your tour. The capt was interactive at the end when he was cutting up our barracuda to take with us.

Everything was ok, but nothing great. When fishing on big water plays into the equation of going off shore. After learning that Aruba is always windy, I was worried about how the fishing would be. My suspicians were right, we stayed close to shore and therefore caught 2 fish in 4 hours. Not what I’m used too when paying for a charter. My overall impression would be to avoid charter fishing in Aruba, it’s to windy.
