Explore the northern waters of the Gulf of California and join La Princesa Fishing Trips! This fishing charter operates out of Puerto Penasco and runs trips from February till the end of October. Your guide and host, Captain Francisco welcomes anglers of all skill levels and ages. All trips are family-friendly, so don't hesitate to bring your kids and let them catch their first fish here.

You'll be fishing on a 27' custom built center console that accommodates up to 8 guests. There's enough seating space and fishing equipment for everyone to fish at the same time. This also depends on the technique you're using - if you're trolling, you'll need to take turns with rods, to avoid tangled lines.

The boat has all necessary navigational and safety equipment. She's powered by a 150 HP Honda engine, which can reach the speed of 20 knots. The boat also features a toilet and a cooler for the catch.

You'll explore local flats, reefs, and offshore spots, where you'll have the chance to target a variety of fish species. Some of the fish that can end up in your cooler are Halibut, White Seabass, Spanish Mackerel, Bonefish, Skipjack Tuna, Shark, and many more.

The preparations are very simple - just pack your sun protection and bring a camera. Everything else is covered by the crew, including your fishing licenses, equipment, snacks, drinks, and catch cleaning service.

La Princesa Fishing Trips offers a fun way to spend your day in Puerto Penasco. Join and let's go fishing!

Looking for the big ones
6 Hour Trip on June 1, 20263 adults

Today was a beautiful day to be on the water. We fished a reef that he had caught a 70 lb Grouper on the day before. Fishing was slow because we were fishing for quality and not quantity. No Grouper on the first stop but caught several very large Corvina (sea trout), some smaller bait fish, and a couple nice Pargo (snapper). Our second move produced a couple Pargo and small bait fish. Our third stop produced a couple Pargo, one Grouper about 20 lbs, and missed two very good Grouper bites. We had a great day fishing with Francisco and his son Aldo. I would recommend a trip on the Princesa to anyone wanting to enjoy a day of fishing while in Puerto Penasco. Good captain, nice boat , and a good time.

Heavy seas!
6 Hour Trip on April 22, 20264 adults

According to the weather report we were supposed to have a great day on the water. I guess Mother Nature didn't read the forecast. We only traveled about 4 miles due to the increasing breeze and waves. Fishing was pretty slow and Captain Francisco moved a few times, trying to find some active fish. We finally found a spot the Sea Trout were actively feeding. We decided to head in a little early due to the wind and rough sea. Captain Francisco and the Princesa got us back safely through some large white capped waves. We were never in any danger or concerns with Captain Francisco at the helm. I would recommend a fishing trip with Captain Francisco any time you are in the Rocky Point area.
