    . Book these guys, you won’t be disappointed!

    1/4 day trip on October 5, 2026 • 5 adults • 3 children

    We have been on several fishing charters in Rocky point but this was the first time we were taking our three daughters out, Everything could not have run smoother, the communication before we got to the boat was great and we were able to start our trip early, which worked out well for us, and our girls had the time of their lives. They’re anxious to get back out and do some more fishing, we could not have asked for more! Captain Jose and his deck mate were excellent, we will definitely be back to fish with these guys again!

    Thank you Jose & Jose Jr.............for a wonderful trip

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on October 8, 2025 • 8 adults • 2 children

    Jose worked the boat and locations hard to keep us on the fish!!. And what a good job he did. Some of his hot spots were so good we had nearly all the lines going with fish ON!!. We took home more beautifully cleaned fish More then we ever planned too. My daughter in law enjoyed running her blue tooth music thru his boat stereo ,and were serenated with wonderful music. Lots bottled ice cold water was furnished. There was plenty of seating we especially liked the seating on top with such good visibility. A big thank you for making of wonderful family memories today with Capt Jose.....

    Fishing with Jose

    Half Day Trip on May 26, 2025 • 6 adults

    Our captain Oscar was great brought us about 12+ miles out and fished a few spots. Our group caught a good amount of fish, red snapper, trigger fish, sea trout, rock bass and a shark. Boat was roomy and has a inside galley area, table and bathroom (head), with an outside upper deck. The first mate was great keeping our poles baited and fileted all of our fish. Great trip and great crew, I will use Pepes fishing again in the future.

    Huge success!!

    1/4 day trip on October 28, 2026 • 7 adults

    We were in Puerto Penasco on a friends trip and we booked a charter with Cap't Oscar on the Caballo del Mar and he and the First Mate nailed it. Our group was mostly beginners and they caught so many fish, they had to stop before our time ran out. Capt Oscar put us right on top a reef and we were hauling in trigger fish, snapper, rock bass faster than they could get them in the boat. Definitely worth every penny!

    Great trip with sickness

    1/4 day trip on July 25, 2026 • 8 adults

    We planned this 3hr trip for a bachelor trip and many of the guys we went with got seasick due to rough waves. The crew was professional and help us and cleaned up some throw up. They were great and helped everyone out as much as they can! My party decided to end the trip 30 mins early due to how everyone was feeling but we still caught about 25 fish. Enough to fill a house of 8 guys for dinner anf breakfast! I would recommend this to anyone that is interested in fishing!

For Captain Jose Rodriguez, fishing is as natural as breathing. He got into fishing when he was only 14 years old, and now, 3 decades later, he's still as enthusiastic as he was when he first started. Capt. Jose is an expert in bottom fishing and he's got an awesome fleet to take his customers to some of the top fishing spots in the Sea of Cortez!
