Sport Fishing Herradura welcomes you aboard for a day exploring the area’s top spots for some delicious and hard-fighting fish. Captain Randy Delgado builds every trip around what you want to do, making your fun and safety the number one priorities so you can relax and enjoy the fishing.

You will be fishing aboard the Los Cielos, a 31’ Aquasport center console. The boat has great all-round fishing space and a covered top to keep off the hot tropical sun. She also has a portable toilet for extra comfort on longer trips, and snorkeling equipment for if you want to spend your time in the water as well as on it.

The Los Cielos is rigged and ready to take on even the fiercest of big game species, with a mix of light and heavy tackle and a ton of great equipment and tech. GPS and fishfinder get you on the best catches, while the boat’s outriggers and downriggers let you properly target every habitat and species.

To tempt in the fish, you will be given a livewell full of fresh live bait. The boat also has tuna tubes to let you troll live Bonito and Skipjack and lure in some real prize-worthy sea monsters. On top of this, you will have a range of colorful lures to fill out your spread or change things up.

Half day trips will see you bringing in tasty Snapper and Grouper, as well as some huge Roosterfish, Jacks, and Barracuda for some serious inshore battles. Book in for the whole day, and you can get offshore in search of massive Marlin, huge Sailfish, and a rich variety of other big game pelagics.

No matter what you do, you will be in for an awesome day with an experienced local guide and a great, modern boat. So climb aboard and get ready to make some memories!

Please note that all credit/debit card transactions are subjected to a 15% fee.

First time fishing in the sea.
3/4 day on November 24, 20254 adults
My husband and two oldest sons are freshwater anglers, this was their first time out on the ocean. Couldn't have picked a better crew. They haven't stopped talking about their 'best day ever'. They loved the boat, captain and deckhand. The food and drink were great. They caught two mahi and snagged a big blue marlin as well. Absolutely recommend these professionals!

Good experience 3/4 day offshore
3/4 day on May 3, 20252 adults
A friend and I went fishing from Herradura with Capt Randy and David. Although the fish were not biting much, they did their best to chase the tuna reports and try to get us on some fish. We saw thousands of tuna in the schools jumping and feeding but they would not hit our live bait or artificial bait. They worked super hard and even extended our time to get us on the fish. We did catch a sailfish and some rainbow runners (which were the best fish I have ever eaten surprisingly). We also hooked a blue marlin which spit the hook early in the fight. Both Randy and David were great guys and I recommend going out with them 100%. We will definitely return next year!

Full Day Trip - Offshore on January 27, 20252 adults
We went fishing, and it was absolutely amazing! We caught two sailfish and a huge tuna, and we were lucky enough to witness a breathtaking sight of a huge pod of dolphins swimming nearby. It was an unforgettable and magical experience! The absolute highlight of the trip was being able to swim with a sailfish in the wild ocean. It was such a rare and incredible moment that we'll cherish forever. Captain Randy and David were simply incredible. They were so professional, attentive, and friendly that we felt comfortable and had a great time throughout the trip. Their passion and dedication truly made this adventure special. This fishing trip was an unforgettable experience! Not only did we enjoy catching fish, but we also cherished the moments surrounded by nature and this fantastic team. We highly recommend this tour! Thank you, Randy and David, for such an amazing day!

Full Day Trip - Offshore on December 26, 20244 adults
My family and I had a fantastic fishing experience with Captain Randy and David. They were warm and genuinely invested in ensuring we had a great time. The boat was immaculately maintained and handled the sea with ease. Following a slow start, Captain Randy expertly guided us to a hotspot, where we caught an impressive array of fish, including a big wahoo, multiple yellow fin tuna, king mackerel, and the catch of the day, a ten-foot blue marlin! It was a truly unforgettable day of deep-sea fishing. Look no further than Captain Randy and "Los Cielos"!

Our two boys (13 and 10) love to fish and we were very pleased with our two outings with captain Randy and David. Both Randy and David were very friendly, good with the kids, worked hard, were determined to find fish, and provided plenty of drinks and snacks along the way (including preparing fresh tuna we had just caught). We would definitely book with them again.
