Have a fun day on the water and catch fish together with Juancho. Your friendly crew will meet you in Playa Del Carmen, Quintana Roo and take you to the area’s rich inshore and offshore waters, reefs, and wrecks. This crew will know where to find the best bite and give you the best chance for making a big catch. Join in and discover the beautiful waters of Mexico!

The crew offers you a memorable time on the water, which includes 4, 6, and 8-hour trips. You will mainly be fishing for Marlin, Little Tunny, Mahi Mahi, Horse-eye Jack, Grouper, Cero Mackerel, Bonito, and more. The techniques you can use to attract your targets are light and heavy tackle, deep sea fishing, big game fishing, trolling, spinning, drift fishing, as well as jigging. Sailfish and Marlin have to be released but you’re welcome to keep all the other species you catch.

Your trip will take place on a 27’ Imensa fiberglass airboat that can safely take up to 4 guests. It runs on a 60 HP Yamaha two stroke engine and uses GPS, fishfinder, as well as radio technology for quick and safe movement on the water. The boat comes with an ice-box and is equipped with a fighting chair, snorkeling gear, outriggers, and downriggers.

The captain will take care of all the fishing equipment, licenses, catch cleaning, and drinks. On some trips, you’ll also get sandwiches and fruits.

Book today and have a wonderful time fishing in Mexico!

An excellent trip
8 Hour Trip – Action and Fun on June 16, 20252 adults1 child
Captain Edmundo and his first mate Gustavo did a great job. I wanted my 11 years old son to catch his first big saltwater fish and to enjoy fishing in different species. Edmundo was able to bring us to the fish. We started with bottom fishing (I wanted my son to catch some fish). Edmundo and Gustavo drove to many different spots and we were able to catch some groupers, trigger fish, so-called "bananafish" and a small snapper. After 4 hours or so of bottom fishing, we started trolling and hooked up a decent barracuda, which my son drilled and brought to the boat. Finally a Mahi-Mahi showed up. Edmundo and Gustavo were very helpful and I recommend everyone to book a tour with these nice guys.

4 Hour Trip – deep sea trolling on February 21, 20252 adults
My girlfriend and I had a very enjoyable time fishing with Edmundo and Gustavo . Their English was great which made our trip more enjoyable with no language barrier. Our arms were sore the next day from reeling in all of the fish. I would book with them again with no hesitation. Thank you Edmundo & Gustavo for a great time, your friends J Lo & Chuck Norris :)

Took an 8-year old on his first saltwater fishing trip, the crew was helpful and encouraging. We stayed in shallow as the sea was a bit choppy but still caught lots of Trigger Fish.
