Discover the riches of the Sea of Cortez and make your holiday come alive with Federico’s Fishing Charters. Leave the beaches of Puerto Peñasco behind and get your fish on in style, as you head up to 25 miles offshore to do battle with some prized fish. Your local, experienced guide will do everything he can to get you on the fish, with his first mate giving you a helping hand to land the fish of your dreams.
Captain Gabriel hails from the Puerto Peñasco shores and has been fishing his whole life. After spending years guiding tourist boats in the area, he joined Federico’s team to run a first-class service to tourists from all over the world.
The 48’ Californian deck boat can host up to 15 anglers, giving you the chance to bring all your nearest and dearest aboard. This professional vessel comes fitted with everything you need for a productive day out and boasts plenty of creature comforts. Take in the rays on the spacious deck or unwind in the air-conditioned cabin. Just make sure to bring some drinks and snacks, and make yourself at home!
When it comes to fishing, there’ll be no shortage of action to keep you entertained. The pristine reefs play home to a range of exciting and delicious fish, giving you an angling experience like no other. Test your bottom fishing skills as you go after Groupers, Snappers, Triggerfish, Bass, Rays, Bass, and many more prized creatures to fill the boat.
Work up a sweat battling it out with these beauties and take advantage of the chance to cool off by taking a dip. Get in touch with the crew before coming aboard and they can provide snorkeling equipment for all on board.
At the end of your trip, the crew will even clean and fillet your fish for you to cook up right away, so there’s not much left for you to do. All Capt. Gabriel asks is that you arrive 15 minutes before your departure time and away you go.
Federico’s Fishing Charters offers fishing like never before. Come aboard and make your holiday one to remember!

There was seven of us that went on a fishing trip. The captain and his crew were very knowledgeable and accommodating to our youngest family members. I highly recommend this outfit to anyone interested in deep sea fishing in Puerto Peñasco.

We were lucky with the weather -- smooth, warm and very little wind. We all caught fish. The captain and his crewman Goose were always available and helpful and very friendly. The boat was on the older side, but comfortable for ladies and probably up to at least ten anglers.

We had 9 people on the boat, and we had a great time. They asked us before we sailed what type of fishing we'd like to do (further out for the chance of bigger fish, or closer to catch more) and they did a good job finding the fish. The crew spoke English well, so there wasn't any problem with communication. They provided fresh bait instead of us having to catch our own, that's a change from other charters we've done. We brought coolers that the crew loaded, and there was also a refrigerator for us to use. About the only thing that I could say the boat was missing was a live well, but they kept everything chilled in a cooler. Overall a fantastic trip, we'll definitely book with them again!
