Omar's Sportfishing & Tours

Bountiful waters of Puerto Escondido hold fish species that are every fisherman’s dream. This famous fishing village is ideally located on the Pacific coast of Mexico, as it’s very close to deep waters and fishing grounds with high action. Omar’s Sportfishing & Tours is here to ensure your day of fishing in the area is a spectacular one!

Whether you’re a pro or novice angler, Captain Omar Ramirez will make sure you land a trophy fish! You’ll target the greatest offshore species, such as Sailfish, Blue and Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Roosterfish, and many more. Having any of these fish hooked on your line is an adrenaline-pumping experience! Shorter, inshore trips will take you targeting Jack Crevalle, Spanish Mackerel, Bonito, and maybe Grouper.

You’ll departure from Playa Puerto Angelito on a 27’ Immensa boat. It accommodates up to 5 guests and everybody can fish at the same time. The captain will provide enough fishing equipment for everybody but he can also arrange snorkeling equipment, free of charge. You only need to request it in advance.

All Billfish have to be released, while you can keep other species and share them with the crew. After the trip, the crew will clean your catch. The captain provides fresh water, but you should bring your food and any other drinks you prefer. Don’t forget your sunscreen, sunglasses, and camera.

Omar’s Sportfishing & Tours run their trips year-round. Join them and catch some of the most magnificent fish you have ever seen!

Captain Omar has been fishing for 27 years. He started when he was 15 as a crew member on the local boats with popular captains. When he was 17, he bought a boat. The most important life event regarding sportfishing was when he caught a Marlin, which was more than 100 pounds. He was fighting it from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and that left a huge mark on him. Fishing is his addiction and obsession. He spent 2 summers in Canada, Vancouver, fishing for Salmon and Cod and 5 summers in Central Canada fishing on lakes and rivers, targeting Walleye, Smallmouth Bass and Musky. He was fishing on entire Pacific coast, from Guatemala border to the coast of the southeast of Mexico. Speaks English and Spanish.
