Ensenada Sportfishing Works

Ensenada Sportfishing Works has been putting smiles on customers’ faces for more than 10 years and invite you to join them in sunny Baja California, Mexico! Partake in an unforgettable and wild journey with Captain Morgan Brown and battle some of the meanest fish off the Pacific coast.

The captain’s boat is a 38’ Mediterraneo motor yacht, powered by twin 325 HP Cummins engines, and equipped with all the amenities you can imagine. We’re talking flybridge, outriggers and downriggers, navigational equipment, safety gear, a USB radio, kitchen, refrigerator, private head, shower, and bed. This baby’s fully loaded! With ample room, she accommodates 8 guests per trip, and each person can fish at the same time.

Most trips are nearshore, however, Captain Morgan can also go as far as 120 miles from the coast if you’d like to challenge the big pelagics of the deep blue. On offshore trips, you’ll target Mahi Mahi, Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna, Yellowtail Amberjack, and Barracuda. But you really don’t have to go too far to experience some heavy action. Your nearshore and inshore excursions will see you chasing Bonito, Lingcod, White Seabass, and many more!

Top-of-the-line Penn rods and reels will be provided on each trip, including live bait, when in season. The captain will also take care of your fishing license for you at an extra cost so you can sit back and focus on the fun part, catchin’ fish!

If you’re looking for some fun in the sun while hookin’ a keeper, then look no further! Capt. Morgan will show you the wild side of Baja California that’s hidden from your average, everyday tourist. Just bring some light clothing, sunglasses, and sunscreen, and book your next fishing trip with Ensenada Sportfishing Works!
