From the inital booking and communication to the actual trip, everything went smooth. Martin was quick to reply to any questions I had. I spent 8 hours with Mau and we fished several different areas getting into a good number of fish. He was very knowledgeable and got me on the species I wanted to target. I've done many guided. trips and charters over the years and this was one of the best experiences I've had. I Highly recommend this service if you are visiting the Cancun area and I will definitely be back in the future.
Hi Christopher, Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip with us. Hope to see you back one day! Regards, Martin
Very easy to find with the provided instructions. We went after Tarpon first thing this am. With a few missplaced casts they wouldnt eat, we moved on to Snook. caught a handfull of snook (lost a really good one) and a bonus sea trout. also caught quite a few barracuda. Will definitely be going again with these guys in the future.
Hi Jeff, thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip with us! Hope to see you back next time you're in Cancun. Regards, Martin
Martin was great; he went out of his way to make sure there were good fish around the boat at all times. We caught some small barracuda and even a mid-sized snook!
Hi Jack, thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip with us. Kind regards, Martin
