Ecuagringo will customize your trip to provide you a experience of a lifetime. We are your do it all outfitter for the Galapagos Islands.
1- Fish With The Outfitter That Started It All!
As the first outfitter who developed the first boats and crews there is no substitute for experience! Braden Escobar who created Ecuagringo has researched and fished the Galapagos since the mid 90’s far longer than anyone else. His passion for marlin helped the company put the Galapagos Islands on the map and get the activity regulated and legalized. The striped marlin fishery in the Galapagos is considered the best year round large striped marlin action where you may expect double digit action any day of the year.
Our striped marlin range 120 to over 250 pounds. If you rather target giant blue marlin that will grow over 1000 pounds then Isabela Island is the fishery you need to be in. Escobar loves chasing giant marlin and he has been working hard with Ecuagringo crews to put the Galapagos Islands on the map as arguably the best destination in the Pacific for marlin 500 to over 1000 pounds.
