Book your next trip with Book Baja 285 Boston Whaler and find out what fishing in San Jose Del Cbao is all about.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Yellowtail Amberjack, Amberjack, Broomtail Grouper, Yellowfin Tuna, Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Cubera Snapper, and anything else that bites. On these trips, it's common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. For the more adventurous among you, there's spearfishing and bowfishing.

You'll be dropping lines from Sin or Swim, a 28' Boston Whaler sportfishing vessel with room for 5 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Sin or Swim has rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Before coming aboard, you will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. 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.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen. Sodas & Water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed (BYOB).... There will be some light snacks available on board. There are four sets of snorkeling gear included

Book Baja will make it easy for you to go fishing in Puerto Escondido. So, how about booking that trip?

German was born and raised in the small fishing town of Loreto Baja, born into a 4-generation family dedicated to fishing and life at sea. He spent his childhood enjoying weekends and school holidays fishing with his father, uncles and brothers. With his father and brothers he formed a fleet of pangas dedicated to sport fishing and trips around the islands in the waters of the Loreto Bay protected natural area. Thus, he became an expert in fishing and excursions in these waters and in recent years he has had experiences fishing throughout the entire Sea of Cortez from Cabo San Lucas to Bahía de Los Ángeles in the north.
