Bad Boys I Sportifishing & Snorkeling
Booked with us before? You may qualify for a Loyalty Discount. Sign in to check.
If fishing in Playa Flamingo is on your bucket list, look no further than Bad Boys I.
Top targets include Mahi Mahi, Black Marlin, Striped Marlin, Blue Marlin, Amberjack, African Pompano Jack, Jack Crevalle, Skipjack Tuna, Rainbow Runner, Roosterfish, and more, depending on the time of year. You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!
You'll find yourself aboard a 26' center console with room for 5 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Rods and reels are not included, so ask the captain about bringing your own or renting some for an extra cost. Be sure to ask about bait and lures as well. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. A tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and a hat. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks for you on board.

We had an amazing time fishing with Cris and Bayron. They really know what they're doing and made sure we caught plenty of fish throughout the trip. We caught blackfin tuna, jack crevalle, blue runner, and my personal favorite — red snapper. They also prepared delicious snacks for us on board. The only minor issue was the boat stalled briefly, but they handled it quickly and kept the trip enjoyable. Highly recommend booking a trip with them!

Hola Theresa! Thank you so much for your kindest review, we hope to see you again. Pura Vida! Brenda

The Captain Byron and Mate were great worked hard. In fact I asked Byron if I could possibly purchase the Bad Boys shirt he was wearing He said that they were out. But I could have the one he was wearing ( it was a couple of sizes too small) take about offering the shirt off your back) Mark Stephenson South Lake Tahoe

Byron and Chris were great, very knowledgeable and attentive to all your needs. Some fresh fish with fresh pineapple as a snack was delicious. The Tuna weren't running but we caught a lot of Snapper and Grouper. Highly recommended spending a day with these guys!
