Spend the day with Nuj Kay and let them show you what makes fishing in Cancún so memorable! With Captain Hugo at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Great Barracuda, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, Gag Grouper, Bonito, White Marlin, Sailfish, Mutton Snapper, Sierra Mackerel, Blackfin Tuna, Gray Triggerfish, Wahoo, and whatever else takes the bait. You'll target your catch by light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You'll be casting lines from a 23' Wellcraft offshore sport fishing vessel that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Hugo has rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Awesome catch

6 Hour Trip on April 18, 2026 • 3 adults

At first we were surprised that we couldn't park there, but finally they let us park. Meaning I would recommend going by taxi/bus/uber to have this peace of mind. We also found out that there is about 60USD fees for fishing and marina licenses, plus a 5% over everything fee if you pay by card. You save that 5% by paying cash. We then went on the boat and drove for about an hour to the fishing spot. Captain Alex and first mate Angel were very friendly and knew what they were doing. I had sea sickness, but still enjoyed every minute of my experience because right when we put the lines in the water, we caught an awesome sailfish followed by an awesome wahoo a few minutes after. We came for big game and that's what we got. We could keep the wahoo to eat, but needed to release the sailfish if you don't want to taxidermize it. After only about 2 hours of fishing we decided to come back due to sea sickness so it was about 4h30 overall but still worth it. Thanks again for the great fishes!

Worth every penny

6 Hour Trip on March 22, 2026 • 2 adults

We had an absolutely amazing day out today with Alex and his first mate.  Mahi Mahi , Baracuda, Sailfish (we op-ed to release this guy) and 2 that were just too smart for this occasional fisher to not snap the line.  Amazing prices especially for a little private boat. The boat is not shiny and new but I also didn't pay an exorbitant amount to be in a shiny new one. Now the docking companies dock looks a little sketch  but it held up well to my short plump self. Can't wait to use these guys again.  Ps please keep in mind its $20 per person dock and license fee at the dock. Still an amazing deal for 6 hours of fun.(minus the 2 feeding the fish breaks I needed to take 🤢🤣) They asked if we wanted our fish cleaned and pointed us to the restaurant that would have cooked for us. we op-ed out.

5 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on February 18, 2026 • 2 adults

The experience was great, the captain and the first mate were fantastic and hard-working and they did everything to catch the fish. We had a 4 hour afternoon attempt, including trolling and spot fishing using different lures and methods. The weather was a little sub par, but the captain was up front about it and showed everything about it on the app. I guess we didn't get as lucky as some but we did score four smaller barracudas and medium sized Jack. The weather wasn't that great but we were fully informed before we make a decision to go out. 
The captain personally fillet our fish and offered to make ceviche.  We decided to use the restaurant at the Admiral marina however that felt as a complete rip off as they charged us $70+ USD for very small amount of food.  But that's a different story. 
The fishing tour was fantastic, right on the money and 100% recommended! The captain even gifted us 2 fancy fishing shirts for me and my father with a ship name and Mexican flag on them.

A great time!!

Fishing, ceviche and ISLA MUJERES on December 28, 2025 • 2 adults

What a blast!! The captain and his mate did most of the work. Hooking lines up and making sure there were fish on the line. Handed over the poles so we could reel in the catch. 5mins with lines in the water we were catching fish. went out for 8hrs and just a short time without any bite. Took us to a different spot and BAM bites again. Within the next hour had so many fish. We caught so many we were giving them away. We had several cut up or used as live bait. The only thing is bring yourself some lunch. they provided drinks even beer. Would definitely book with these guys again.  They even filleted our fish

AWESOME!

5 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on January 29, 2026 • 4 adults

Captain Alex and his first mate had us on fish immediately. We brought in 6 barracudas in under an hour when some of our boys sea legs ran out so we had to cut it short, regretably!  Even with the shortened trip, it was a phenomenal high energy time on the water doubling and even tripling up on fish. 1,000% would book them again. If you have 2-4 guys, this is the one you want for a very reasonable price. I posted a video of our time fishing on youtube.
