El Coco Fishing Club

Join El Coco Fishing Club and spend an unforgettable day on the water! Meet Captain Andres, who’s been “hooked” on fishing ever since he was a kid. He grew up fishing these waters and knows all secrets of fish movement and best ways to catch them. His trips are available year round, so any time you decide to come is a good time for fishing.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 22’ Cobia boat that accommodates up to 4 anglers. With 225 HP Yamaha engine and navigational electronics, the boat has just what you need to reach bountiful waters fast. When you feel like taking a dip after fishing, you can use the captain’s snorkeling equipment. Just make sure to request it in advance.

You’ll mostly fish the inshore and nearshore waters, where you can target Roosterfish, Snapper, Grouper, Jack Crevalle and more. However, some trips can take you offshore, even up to 40 miles, where you can target Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, and different types of Tuna. Species like Roosterfish and Sailfish have to be released but you get to keep other catch.

The crew can clean your catch and for an extra cost, the captain can fry it at his beach house. Otherwise, you can always take it to a restaurant and have it prepared there. Your fishing equipment is fully covered and you’ll also have soft drinks and fruit on the boat. Feel free to bring snacks of your choice or anything else that will make this trip more enjoyable.

El Coco Fishing Club can adjust any trip to your needs, whether you’re after your first fish or you already have fishing experience. Choose your trip and hop aboard!
