Wences Team Sport Fishing invites to you explore the beautiful Mexican Pacific waters, including those of Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo. If you are looking for a wealth of local knowledge, punctuality, and professionalism, you have found the right place.

Take your family, friends, or fishing buddies with you and let the captain connect you to the outdoors. He and his crew specialize in various fishing techniques and tried-and-true methods that work best, including heavy tackle trolling, bottom fishing, jigging, drift fishing, and fly fishing.

With Wences Team Sport Fishing, you will be able to get your hands on various fish species that live up to 20 miles out. The list of your potential catches includes Roosterfish, Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, Sailfish, Needlefish, Little Tunny, Jack Crevalle, Mahi Mahi, and Barracuda. As well as that, you will be able to fight Black, Striped, and Blue Marlin.

All of the action will take place aboard the 'Champagne II', a 31' Bertram with twin 250 HP Cummins engines. She is a seaworthy vessel with plenty of fishing space for up to 4 anglers. The Champagne II was built in 1979 and fully overhauled in 2017, rigged with a fighting chair, Tuna tubes, outriggers, electronics, and other accessories to make a great catch possible. The Champagne II is not only a fully outfitted boat; she also has all the comforts of home.

All trips come with the use of rods, reels, tackle, lures, licenses, drinks, and fly fishing equipment if needed. Please note that catch-and-release is mandatory for some species.

My 12 year-old son is an avid fisherman. He has been longing to catch a sailfish for quite some time. After reading several reviews, I decided on this boat and crew. And let me tell all of you readers that this decision was a great one. We were greeted by the captain in the parking lot. He directed us to coffee and some sandwiches - he provided water, soda, and Corona. Ten minutes out we caught our first fish - a smaller Bonita that Julio sliced up later making a fantastic Sashimi dish. We then chased some tuna, saw a whale and a sea turtle, and then continued on our quest. About an hour later my son and his friend took turns reeling in a beautiful 8 foot Sailfush. It was right out of a movie. A couple hours after that we caught another 7 foot Sailfish. They are such majestic creatures that we decided to release this one, which Julio did with skill and precision. At that point the kids were pretty beat so we decided to head back. Julio then cut us up some nice filets which we will cook tonight. It was a fantastic memorable journey that we will never forget. Thank you Raymondo and Julio - we will never forget this trip. And I will always be grateful to you both for helping me make one of my son's dreams come true. With respect and gratitude, Rory, Zachary, and Casper

Full Day Trip on August 14, 2025 β€’ 2 adults
Wences was very friendly and contacted us a few days beforehand to arrange the meeting point. The boat was clean, and the equipment was adequate, though not high-end reels or rods. His crew member was very attentive and focused on everything. We had a slow day, but on our way back to the harbor, we caught a large sailfish. I definitely recommend this crew and will book with them again!
