As Captain Gabriel Alcaraz likes to say, 'Fishing is 50% luck and 50% passion.' His Super Panga Tres Estrellas has good luck. The only thing that's missing is your passion!
Captain Gabriel runs the trips with his son and uncle. The crew are all bilingual professionals who want to catch fish as much as you do. Capt. Gabriel has been mastering the waters of Puerto Vallarta for 2 decades. His professional repertoire includes the Banderas Bay and the productive fishing grounds offshore.
The local waters hold great numbers of fish all year long, although some species bite best during certain months. You will be able to get your hands on anything from Roosterfish, Jack Crevalle, Spanish Mackerel, Snapper, and Grouper to Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, Marlin, Wahoo, Tuna, and even Needlefish.
Your boat for the day will be a 27' Center console panga, built in 2011. She comes powered by twin 60 HP Yamaha engines and is outfitted with a fighting chair, snorkeling equipment, top-notch gear, and modern electronics along with tuna tubes and an icebox.
Land some of the world's most sought-after pelagics with your fishing buddies or combine fishing and snorkeling if you plan a family outing. A day out with Super Panga Tres Estrellas is more than just fishing. The scenery is breathtaking, with birds and whales being regular visitors. The seabed is filled with sea urchins and starfish – which is especially exciting for those who want to take a dip in these prolific waters.
All trips come with the use of snorkeling equipment and fishing gear by Penn International and Shimano. You will also be provided with fluorocarbon leaders, bait, and lures, as well as licenses and a complimentary fish cleaning service. All you have to do is show up!

We just did a 8 hour trip today and the crew put us on the fish immediately. We scored a mix of bonita and skip jack tuna which is the main target species during this time of year. The boat was comfortable with many spots to sit if its a smaller group. I would not recommend any more than 4 anglers though. We did mix of trolling, gigging, and top water poppers which was fun to switch things up. What i liked the most is that they will let you take 100% control of dropping and reeling the rods. For example, i was dropping a trolling mad mac and got hit on the drop and finished it all the way in. ill be back

It's uncommon to find an excursion in PV that in the end feels worth the money, this felt well worth it! Had we booked in a better time of year/ earlier in the day I'm confident we would have caught some fish. We still had an awesome boat ride certainly the nicer of the boats vs all the other ones on the water. The captains Angel and Charlie were super friendly and awesome with my kid. If they offer to take you to the beach and snorkelling, definitely go!

i booked this trip as a suprise for my husband and it could not have gone better! The crew was very welcoming and made us feel comfortable on the boat. we had a lucky day and quickly caught 2 jack fish and a tuna while jigging. later on while trolling we caught a mahi mahi! Our captain Angel took us to a beach restaurant that cooked our fresh catches for us in a variety of ways and it was delicious! As a bonus, we also spotted dolphins and humpback whales during the fishing portion; and a sting ray when we snorkeled! Overall, Angel was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The whole crew was friendly and upbeat which made the whole day a lasting memory! My husband is already planning his next trip back with these guys!

Pros: They met us at a different doc and explained how to get there. We had Angel and Carlos as our captains. We caught 4 fish right out of the bay. They asked us what we were wanting to catch. They took us snorkeling to break up the trip and that helped with the kids being a bit bored with fishing. They had a plan to catch some mahi-mahi and they seemed to find a school of them, but there were no bites. Cons: I think we were under the impression Gabriel would be our captain but he handed the boat off to his son and helper who were still great. We didn't catch any mahi-mahi, but that's not always in anybody's control. Overall great 4 hour trip. They were willing to adjust and pivot as we requested was really the best part.

We did a half-day trip but wish we'd done a whole day the time flies by. Gabriel was recommended but we ended up going with his son Angel. Everything was GREAT. We caught 4 Skipjacks pretty quickly, saw a mahi we couldn't get to hook then caught a bigger mahi right after and probably would have caught more but ran out of time. When we came in, all the other Tres Estrellas boats had fish. Angel filleted our fish for us and showed us where yo bring it to cook and eat. It was 250mex for a full meal of cooked fish with veggies, beans, etc. Such a great experience! Go with Tres Estrellas.
