Scott GoldingRepeat angler•
California, US•Member since 20172 trips5.0VerifiedNewGreat day with Captain William
3/4 Day Trip - Fishing on September 7, 2026 • 5 adultsHad an amazing day with Captain William and his crew on the Chutzpah. We caught black fin tuna, mahi mahi, baracuda and spanish mackerel. William and the crew went above and beyond to make it a great day. After fishing captain stopped at a swimming spot while they made fresh ceviche with one of the fish. Was truly a great day. We had a group of 5 adults. We all caught fish. Could nit have been a better day.
Larry Tran•Massachusetts, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedLots of action and amazing crew!
Half Day Trip – Fishing on December 16, 2025 • 8 adultsWe were a party of 7, 3 of us have fishing experience while the others did not so we elected to fish between isla mujeres and cancun rather than open sea fishing which would have had much larger waves. Weather was great with some winds causing the boat to rock a bit so unfortunate one of the people in our group got seasick so we had to call off the trip at the 2 hour mark even though we booked 4. The crew was very accommodating and told us we had the choice to keep going or head back whenever based on our request so this was our decision. we caught 6 barracudas in the two hours so it definitely was going to be a lot of action. they gave us the option to take as much or as little fish back with us at no extra charge. Once we got back, they fileted all the fish where we requested to have 4 fillets. They recommended to bring then to a restaurant 10 minutes away at a local marina where we had the fish as ceviche, grilled, blackened, and fried for $15 per person. Super delicious and fresh. Just as others mentioned, the crew worked hard to ensure we caught fish, constantly checking lines, switching out bait, and obviously listening to our requests. Definitely want to give these guys another try for a longer trip, maybe even deep sea with only the true fishing geeks. Great job team and we hope to see you again soon!

Full Day Trip – Fishing/Snorkeling on February 22, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenGot out fishing with #familyfishingcancun 🎣 we had a beautiful day on the water. Caught a bonito out in the big water and then came back to the bright blue waters off the coast and caught some pretty impressive barracuda’s! Captain William and first mate Yair worked hard to make sure we had a great day on the water. Yair sliced up one of the barracuda on the boat and served ceviche! Thanks for the great memories!

5 Hour Trip – Fishing on January 2, 2025 • 2 adultsWe had a fabulous time with an extremely hard working crew. The Barracuda bite was on! Highly recommended that you take a trip with them
Jay SudowskiRepeat angler•Colorado, US•Member since 20224 trips5.0Verified6 Hour Trip with William and Crew
3/4 Day Trip—Fishing and Snorkeling on February 19, 2022 • 2 adultsMy wife and I had a great day on the water with William and his crew. The highlights: - We did a lot of catching. In addition to the 5 pictured in the review we lost a King (we had a double header with the big tuna and made a strategic decision to avoid losing the tuna). We also lost a big Wahoo, I blame myself for that. I was tired after a long fight, let up for 30 seconds and off came the fish. - The crew and captain were extremely hard working and diligent. Constantly rebaiting lines, adjusting bait level on the down riggers, etc. - Lunch was amazing, we feasted on fresh Tuna we caught. Overall 5 stars, great value for the money, and 10/10 would do again.

Full Day Trip – Fishing on December 29, 2021 • 3 adultsMy teenage son, daughter and I had a great day fishing with Capt. William and his crew aboard the Chutzpah. Capt William is experienced and knowledgeable, and the crew was personable and worked hard to help us catch fish. We caught barracuda, tuna and a spectacular 56-inch long wahoo. A true trophy fish! The water was rough so we elected to cut our trip a little bit short. Capt William dropped us off at an adjacent marina restaurant where they prepared our catch. A fantastic meal. We had a great experience. Highly recommended!

3/4 Day Trip—Fishing and Snorkeling on March 16, 2023 • 8 adultsGreat time for our family group of eight even though the water was pretty rough on our day out. Mostly trolled but also did some bottom fishing to catch a few eaters. Everyone got a chance to reel in at least one fish which was great. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for your review! We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the fishing, fresh ceviche, and your time with Captain William and the crew. We hope to see you again soon!

These guys worked their butts off the entire time we were on board. Caugh 6 barracuda and 2 mackeral. we even had time to take a dip. Thankful for a professional and hardworking crew
Six of us on a 6 hour trip. 2 were a bit under the weather with 4-5 ft. swells. Tried Live bait and dead bait trolling with only one hit. Bottom fishing resulted in 5 Trigger fish. Mate quickly turned them into a tasty Ceviche. Crew was on point and worked tirelessly to produce but conditions were not the best. Would probably pick the lagoon on next trip if seas are rough.
We caught 3 Barracuda's. They made fresh ceviche on the boat and then filleted the other 2 for the restaurant. A++++++
