Discover epic sportfishing in the Bay of Banderas and beyond! 'Yamaica III' is docked in Puerto Vallarta, a paradise for pelagics and big inshore fish too. You're in safe hands with a professional and fish obsessed crew that will cater to novice and seasoned anglers alike!

Your vessel for the day is a 36' Luhrs express cruiser, ideal for 6 anglers. Depending on your targets, 2-4 can fish at the same time. She's equipped with a private toilet, ample indoor and outdoor seating, and a flybridge for your ultimate enjoyment. Your fishing needs are taken care of too, thanks to the fighting chair, live well, downriggers, and tuna tubes.

If it's offshore sportfishing you're after, your targets certainly won't disappoint. Mahi Mahi, Blue and Striped Marlin, Sailfish, and a variety of Tuna will all keep your lines tight. That said, staying closer to shore can be just as exciting. With Kingfish, Grouper, and massive Roosterfish all on offer you can squeeze a ton action into a few hours.

All of your rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as is snorkeling equipment for all 6 guests if requested. The crew is happy to clean and fillet any catch you choose to keep and they can even prepare it into a delicious, fresh ceviche for you to enjoy for lunch! They'll also provide bottled water and ice but you're free to bring any other drinks and snacks you'd like.

The crew works hard to make sure you hook beasts and if you're happy with the service, tips are greatly appreciated. Bring your camera and get ready to make some everlasting memories in Puerto Vallarta with Yamaica III!

Three Generations
4 Hour Trip (AM) on February 19, 20263 adults2 children
My sons wanted to take their sons (6 & 5) salt water fishing for the first time. I found Captain Enrique and his mate Rigo on Fishfinder. The boat was the Yamaica IV (same as the Yamaica III in the advert but painted blue). we booked the 4 hour bay fishing trip because we were'nt sure how the boys would like it. they had the time of their lives once the fish started biting and we reeled in 18 nice sized bonitos! The crew was awesome and three generations had a memorable experience!

Showed up at the Marina, different boat than what I booked. The boat that we were put in was a decent boat , but a heads up would have been nice. The boat I thought I booked looked like a newer , more modern boat.. so I thought that was pretty deceiving. The crew were great , friendly , accommodating and made a great ceviche. we only caught 3 Mahi Mahi , but thats how fishing goes . Next time , ill go out further to the bigger fish . I was with the wife and she cant handle the open water. Overall , it was a good trip. But the switching of the boats really turned me off.

There was a storm coming in and we still managed to catch several Bonito, a mackerel and a shark! Not bad at all considering the weather!

6 Hour Trip (AM) on May 11, 20265 adults
We started out slow, but then the dolphins started hanging around the boat! After that it was catching the rest of the day! We caught 14 fish and took them to a nearby restaurant for lunch! The captain and crew were amazing!!!
