    Fishing Punta Mita is the Best

    Half Day Trip on November 13, 2026 • 3 adults

    Captain and first mate of Fishing Punta Mita were amazing. Super chill and helpful. I am beginner at fishing and they had me casting semi pro in the first hour. We caught 3 different types of fish, they filleted the fish for us and gave us a local restaurant recommendation to cook our fresh catch, soooo good! Highly recommend these guys!!

    Great crew and great results

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on July 1, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

    yahziel and Jose were fantastic hosts… their family was Born and raised here in Punta Mita and took us to several of their local fishing spots and helped us catch a variety of fish species. You know fisherman are good when they bring in multiple species and explain to you what they are targeting in each area prior to fishing the area. These guys were great hosts and extremely accommodating. Thank you, gentlemen! sean San Diego

    Exceeded our expectations!

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on November 19, 2025 • 2 adults

    Staff was extremely accommodating to our request and how we wanted to fish. We ended up catching rooster fish, saw whales, dolphins, jumping sting rays and sea turtles. Not to mention the fresh ceviche they made for us with our catch that was truly the best meal we had on our entire trip, which is saying something! Highly recommend!

    FISHING TRIP OF A LIFETIME

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on November 3, 2025 • 1 adult

    What an absolutely incredible experience! From start to finish, the fishing tour in Puerto de Mita was top-notch. The crew was friendly, professional, and clearly knew the waters like the back of their hand. They made sure I was comfortable, taught me a few tricks, and kept the energy high the entire time. The highlight? We landed an amazing 170 poubd Marlin and a many Mahi Mahi — both put up an unforgettable fight! Watching that Marlin leap out of the water was something I’ll never forget. The Mahi Mahi was a beautiful catch, and they even had some fillet into ceviche right on the boat. They also had fillets for me to take to a local returant to prepare — fresh doesn’t get any better than that. The scenery out on the open ocean was breathtaking — calm blue water, warm sunshine, and great company. It was the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation. Whether you’re an experienced angler or just want to try something new, this fishing tour is absolutely worth it. Fishing Punta Mita is a must!! Can’t recommend it enough — Punta Mita truly delivered one of the best fishing days of my life!

    Great trip and caught fish!

    Full Day Trip (Open Sea) on April 23, 2025 • 2 adults

    My 14 year old son and I had an amazing time! We booked a full day fishing trip snd were just hoping for a memorable experience, and our expectations were exceeded! We left Punta Mita about 8 am in late April and spent the first two hours on the beautiful ocean roller coaster ride. We found a huge pod of dolphins after about three hours and tried live bait near them but didn’t get any bites. We kept going and my son and I told ourselves even if we didn’t catch anything, this day was still awesome. Not long after, we heard the “zing” of the reel and after a fun fight, brought in a beautiful Jack. Then, two more Jacks came for the fight, plus another fish we lost just before it got to the boat. Not long after, we had another bite, but this one wanted to fight! After about 30 minutes and exhausted arms we had a beautiful 60 pound Yellowfin tuna on board. Jaciel and Eddie prepared the most amazing ceviche on the boat! They filleted what we wanted, which we took to the local restaurant who prepared our fish for several courses. It was an amazing day that will be forever in our memories. We are beyond thankful for El Capitan Jaciel, first mate Eddie, and the Murietta for an unforgettable experience. Muchas gracias!

    Great time out fishing.

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on January 25, 2025 • 2 adults

    Fishing wasn't "great" but the crew did all the right things. That being said, I've had MUCH worse days on the water. They asked and listened to what we wanted to do on a regular basis. We targeted pompano first, caught a nice one along with alot of smaller grouper and a couple of nice trigger. To get on some better fish, we switched to trolling. Fishing was still kind of slow, but productive. Caught one Bonito, missed a few. Headed back towards the marina, we trolled in a couple of spots and started hooking up on the Bonito regularly. Lastly we went into shallower water and tried to target a rooster fish but we're unsuccessful. After the fishing they cleaned our fish and had a small restaurant at the marina cook them up (can't rate them here, but don't miss this opportunity because it was amazing). Overall from an avid fisherman, this was an amazing experience catching fish in the Pacific. Nothing that could have been controlled can be complained about. As perfect as a fishing trip could be. 5 stars. Thanks Eduardo and Fabian!!!

    Great Near Shore Trip

    Half Day Trip - 7:30 AM on January 24, 2025 • 3 adults

    Friendly captain and crew that knew the local spots and methods. I took my wife and in-law on this trip. They adjusted well to a boat of mixed skill levels, giving more attention where due and providing fun gear to experienced anglers. We landed about a dozen bonito with about double that in hookups. Also landed a few grouper and a snapper. In addition to the fishing, we saw countless whales, a pod of porpoise, and even a sea snake (a first for me)! Scenic and productive half day trip!
