Cozumel is world-renowned for its fantastic game fishing opportunities. Maas Fishing Tours is here to take you to this adventurous world and help you become a part of it…at least for one memorable day! Captain Jose will be your guide on this trip and he’ll strive to bring your fishing potential to the fullest!

The Twisted Tale is as comfortable as a boat can be, with a fully air-conditioned cabin, an electric head, a bed, and a flybridge to spot any action going on beneath the surface. Also featuring Lowrance navigational electronics, a fighting chair, a live bait tank, and an icebox, the boat has everything you need for an incredible hunt. She’s a 30’ Bertram sportfishing boat which accommodates a group of 7 guests.

When it comes to fish species, there is almost everything to your liking, from Marlin and Tuna to Bonito and Barracuda. Depending on the season and your fishing grounds, you can also catch Red Snapper, Amberjack, Wahoo, or Mahi Mahi. Once hooked, any of these species will get your heart racing!

Your crew will provide your fishing equipment. If you choose a 6-hour or an 8-hour trip, you’ll also have snacks, drinks, and lunch included in the price. The fish you can keep will be cleaned and filleted for you after the trip.
