When you want to avoid the fishing rush hour but still go after your trophy catch, turn to Y-knot Fishing & Seadoos! Captain Elme Aguayo and his crew will take you where the big fish hide and give you all the equipment you need to hook something massive. They’ve been exploring the offshore fishing grounds for years, and they always know how to get a bite.
Whatever prized game fish you can think of, chances are, you can find it in these waters. On half day trips, Roosterfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Jacks, Grouper, and Snapper will have your attention, and you won’t be traveling far to find them.
Full day expeditions will take you up to 30 miles offshore in search of Sailfish, Blue Marlin, and Yellowfin and Skipjack Tuna. All of these prized fish are feisty fighters, so when you get them on the line, it’s time to put all your skills and knowledge to the test. If you wanted an adrenaline rush, you’ve come to the right place.
Your ride and fishing platform is a 32’ Boston Whaler center console with all the comfort and fishing equipment for up to 6 people. The vessel is a smooth fishing machine with twin 300 HP Yamaha engines, top-notch navigational electronics, a live bait well, tuna tubes, and a fighting chair.
Capt. Elme will provide all the necessary fishing gear for everyone, and the first mate will be there to assist with everything you need. If you decide to keep some of your catch, the crew will clean and fillet it for you. For all their hard work, tips are always appreciated. Snorkeling is also available, but you should arrange in advance with the captain.
You’ll also have water, Gatorade and snacks on board, please feel free to bring your own drinks and lunch on full day trips. Kids are welcome to join and fish with you, if you’d like to get them hooked while they’re young. Don't forget sunscreen.
Go fishing with Y-knot Fishing & Seadoos and one thing’s certain – the thrilling fishing action will make it hard for you to get back to land!

Full Day Trip
Captain and Mate were great. My dad got sick and we took him in early and still went back out to keep fishing. Ended up catching the biggest black marlin I’ve caught to date!! 12’ 6” & 600 lbs!! Incredible trip. Capt took us to La Cruz to hang it and take some great photos. I really wanted to keep the bill and he was able to get it off and delivered to me a few days later. Can’t recommend enough!!

This was our second time out with the Y-Knot team (our first was in 2020). We had tried another charter in between but will only be working withY-Knot and Elme and his team going forward (our captain the second time was Arturo). Both times they worked incredibly hard to put us on fish, with good equipment and a friendly and capable crew. It seems like some fishing charters just want to give you a boat ride, but for focused fishing, these guys are great. We had a terrific day with numerous yellowfin tuna, mahi and a marlin by the end of the day.

Arturo is a skilled Captain. Solid 32’ Boston Whaler with a good ride. We caught over 30 Bonita Tuna, 4 Jacks and a prize 101” Inch/150lb Striped Marlin. Crew worked hard to put us on fish early and as the sea and wind changed we made adjustments. We will charter with them again.

We tried several spots before getting some hits. Moved around to find the good temp water and landed 3/5 mahi. Got a bonus Jack cervelle. Saw 2 sailfish but couldn’t get them to hit. Sight fished the mahi at the end. It was incredible to the captain run to the front of the boat and cast out to connect with a mahi.
