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

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!

Half Day Trip on January 25, 2025

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!!!

Haciel and crew were very accommodating and worked very hard to find fish for our crew of dads and sons. They were friendly, informative, and knowledgeable, leading to a great day of fishing, including a nice haul of a variety of fishes. They also provided beverages, let us jump in the ocean, and cleaned and bagged the fish, which added to everyone’s enjoyment. Overall a fantastic experience while visiting Punta Mita!

Half Day Trip on January 24, 2025

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!

Half Day Trip (PM) on May 29, 2025

Jaciel and his crew did a great job and worked hard all day to get fish. Tried a lot of spots and were accommodating to a family of four (two kids 14 and 12). We caught two Jack on the day but really went after Roosters, we didn’t miss from lack of effort. We had live bait and casted spinners all day. Jaciel and his guy worked it hard.
