Great trip!!
8 hrs , trolling and bottom fishing on July 25, 20262 adults

We had an amazing experience on our 8-hour fishing charter! Unfortunately, both of us ended up getting pretty seasick, but the crew couldn’t have been more patient, understanding, and caring throughout the entire trip. They checked on us often, helped us however they could, and still worked incredibly hard to put us on fish. Despite not feeling our best, we landed two incredible trophy fish that we’ll be having mounted, making this a trip we’ll never forget! The crew’s professionalism, knowledge, and dedication truly made all the difference. We highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a great fishing experience. Thank you for making the best out of a tough day on the water—we can’t wait to come back!

Excellent fish catching crew
6 Hour Trip on July 30, 20262 adults1 child

I took my two sons out on a six hour trip-recommend the six hour at least. The crew was outstanding and worked with both of my sones to land two sail fish (one for each) we hooked two additional sailfish that escaped and caught Bonita in between. Ship was in excellent shape and captained by a professional crew. I would absolutely recommend this charter for sail fishing and particularly is you are taking out kids. Excellent work by the captain and crew!

fantastic days fishing
Special 8 hour trip for Alex Wood on March 4, 20262 adults

what a days fishing, transfer was on time, crew were brilliant, captain found the fish early doors and the 2 deck hands were on the ball straight away, had 3 tripple hook ups before 11pm. 2/3 sailfish, lots of cobia and bonito tuna, then headed to an other spot to drop some live baits deep, hooking up multiple amber jack and jacks. we then headed to the shallows to finish the day barracuda fishing with again multiple hook ups was fantastic. few beers on the way back to harbour… what a day. they even made a little movie of the sailfsih catch. Would definitely reccomend this crew.

Fantastic fishing!
HOT SAILFISH SEASON on May 25, 20261 adult

Had a great trip, the captain Miguel had is on fish immediately, and the crew, Oliver and Juan, did a fantastic job, as we had multiple fish on a number of times, my only advice don't go solo, there was at least two times i didn't think i could bring in another fish we had so many in a row, caught a nice Wahoo and some great Mahi Mahi, hooked 2 sailfish but weren't able to get them to the boat. All around great fiahing trip and my first in Cancun. i would definitely do it again. And o can't say enough about the crew, they did a fantastic job!
