Captain Jefe Cruz will do his best to make sure the trip is tailored to your individual needs and wants. Whether you're an experienced angler or someone who's just starting out, you're welcome to come aboard and have fun!
Your boat for the day is the 'El Jefe' - a 24' Bayliner Trophy walkaround that's powered by twin 115 HP Yamaha engines. Outfitted with all the necessary safety equipment and a full range of navigation electronics, she's got all you need for a safe and productive visit to the Gulf of California.
There's plenty to do in the Gulf angling-wise. Your main targets for the trip will usually be Triggerfish, Black Seabass, and the California Corbina.

Complimentary water, soda, and beer will be waiting for you on board, so feel free to bring some snacks if you like.

Even though the weather gave us a bit of a challenge with strong winds and choppy waves, we had an absolute blast on our charter! We ended up pulling in quite a few fish. What really made the day great was our captain. A couple of us had zero fishing experience, but the captain was exceptionally patient, encouraging, and great at teaching everyone the ropes so we could all get in on the action. Unfortunately, the rough waters eventually got the best of one member in our party who got seasick, so we decided to head back to shore a little early. Despite cutting the trip short, we thoroughly enjoyed every minute on the water. We couldn't have asked for a better captain to guide us, and we would definitely book again.

We had a great time doing the 4 hour trip. We are a family of 4 with a 2 year old and 7 year old. We felt safe the whole time, caught lots of fish, got to drop the reel and everyone had their own pole. We even jumped in the water at one point. The captain would help as much or as little as we preferred. We caught trigger fish, mackerel, bass, and sea trout. They fileted them and we had enjoyed them that same day. They also recommended taking the fresh fish across the street to a Mexican restaurant where they could cook them and serve them to us, but we cooked them ourselves.
This was mine and my husbands first time fishing! Captain Jefe was amazing! He was very informative and taught us how to fish! Our first time we caught a total of 16 fish! I would definitely recommend him if you ever wanna go fishing! He was very nice and helped us out so much! I can't wait to come out again!

Second trip with El jefe! It did not disappoint. Fished with his new captain Dino. not great English, but communication was not a problem as all we did was catch fish. I promised my friends they would catch more fish than they could catch and that happened. We booked a six hour trip and within four hours everybody was so tired from reeling in fish that we cut the trip short. El jefe’s charters is the only one to use in Mexico. Signed El Guapo!
Jefe had all the right gear, nice boat, and experience to get us on the fish. I had to make the call to cut the trip a little short as my daughter, wife, and, sister were weak from reeling in so many big fish. We’re already planning our next trip! Jefe can’t wait until next time!

1/2 day fishing tri p was a great time. Dino was attentive and made sure we were in a good location to catch fish. We have gone fishing with El Jefe charters multiple times and he has never diappointed. Would highly recommend to all.
very knowledgeable and friendly team. working hard to ensure we caught fish. very very enjoyable, will be back soon Jefe! highly recommend this trip when in rocky point for any fisherman experience
