5.0/5 (1 review)
 105 Carretera Federal 1, Buenavista, BS 23580, Mexico

If you're here to make the most of fishing in Los Barriles - Buenavista, look no further than Felipe Valdez Sportfishing. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Felipe can tell you all about the local fishery.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, Black Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Yellowfin Tuna, Roosterfish, Almaco Jack, Amberjack, African Pompano Jack, Wahoo, Cubera Snapper, and anything else that bites. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Felipe can also have you kite fishing.

Felipe Valdez Sportfishing welcomes kids aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Felipe runs a 27' Sea Hunt center console with capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 15–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

You will need to get 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.

Don't forget to bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks available on board.

Your trip with Felipe Valdez Sportfishing is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

I grew up in a fishing lodge that my dad started in 1970, so fishing has been natural to me. We have dedicated ourselves to fishing for more than 40 years. I have had the privilege of living by the Sea of Cortez all my life. Besides just being our business, fishing has been my passion since I was a kid. I started fishing by hand from the beach, until I became a surf fishing guide – that you could say is my first expertise, but I've been doing fishing on boats since forever, until now that I have my own boat. I was fortunate enough to be trained by the best fisherman of the region, and have also been trained in customer service to focus on what fishermen need. My language skills help me communicate all the needs to my clients so they can have a successful and memorable day.
