PV Hook Up – Bertram La Cruz

Visit La Cruz Marina and experience some of the most unforgettable fishing in Mexico with PV Hook Up! The team is made up of a group of friends gathered around the mission of showing everyone how amazing it is to fish in these waters.

The crew will provide you with top-of-the-line gear rigged with fluorocarbon line. There are tuna tubes and outriggers on board, as well as a live bait tank. There’s snorkeling equipment available on request if you want to experience the rich underwater world first-hand.

Depending on the trip and species, you’ll be using techniques like bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, kite fishing, and spinning. You’re looking at 5 to 11-hour trips, where you’ll usually go after the likes of Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Sailfish, Roosterfish, Marlin, and Jack Crevalle, depending on the weather and time of year.

You’ll head out on a 28’ Bertram boat powered by twin 350 HP Cummins engines. On board, you will find enough room for up to 5 people to relax, along with a private toilet in the bedroom below. It also includes an ice box and a fighting chair. The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you’ll need for a productive day on the water.

Snorkeling equipment is also available if you let the captain know after you book. As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain, so you don’t have to worry about it. Children from 5 years old and up are welcome.

A first mate will be there to help you with whatever you may need, and tips are always appreciated for a job well done.

Join PV Hook Up and see for yourself why the waters out of La Cruz are some of the best fishing grounds!
