Fishing in Mexico

Mexico is a premier fishing destination, offering diverse opportunities across its Pacific and Caribbean coastlines. Anglers can target Bluefin Tuna exceeding 1,500 pounds off Ensenada and Coronado Islands, Yellowfin Tuna near Guadalupe Island, and Sailfish in Puerto Vallarta's warm currents. The Sea of Cortez delivers thrilling Roosterfish battles, while Riviera Maya's flats teem with Bonefish and Permit. Cabo San Lucas remains the "Marlin Capital," where Striped, Blue, and Black Marlin strike year-round alongside Dorado and Yellowtail Amberjack.

Coastal ecosystems nurture Snapper, Grouper, and Tarpon, particularly around Cancun's lagoons and Baja California's reefs. Offshore banks like Hidden Banks attract Barracuda and massive Tuna schools from May to September, when seas are calm and species migrations peak. Techniques vary from trolling lures for pelagics to fly-fishing in shallow bays, accommodating both novice anglers and seasoned adventurers.

With charters available in Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, Cancun, and beyond, Mexico combines accessibility with unparalleled variety. Whether pursuing record Marlin in deep waters or sight-casting to Bonefish on tranquil flats, these waters promise extraordinary catches amid stunning landscapes.

Mexico Fishing Seasons

January

Striped Marlin, Hammerhead Sharks, and Wahoo patrol the deep waters around Cabo. Puerto Vallarta is great for Black Marlin and Sailfish. Inshore, this is a perfect time for Snook fishing in Riviera Maya.

February

Striped Marlin and Sharks bite hard in Cabo San Lucas. Jack Crevalle join the Snook on Riviera Maya’s flats. You can catch the last of the winter Sailfish and Black Marlin bite in Puerto Vallarta.

March

March brings tasty Yellowtail to Cabo, just as Snapper and Grouper show up on the reefs. The first of the Marlin show up in Playa Del Carmen and Cozumel, just as the Billfish leave Banderas Bay.

April

Striped Marlin show no signs of leaving Baja California, and Puerto Vallarta’s reefs are full of fish. In the Caribbean, Permit, Tarpon, Snook, and Jack Crevalle are all around in big numbers.

May

Hundreds of boats swarm the island of Cozumel for the Rodeo de Lanchas Mexicanas (Mexican Boat Rodeo). Meanwhile, fly anglers head to Tulum for the Ascension Bay Permit Tournament.

June

Snook, Roosterfish, Sierra Mackerel, and Jack Crevalle offer epic shore fishing in Cabo. On the other side of the country, Blue and White Marlin, Sailfish, and Mahi Mahi will put your skills to the test in Cancun.

July

July offers the best Tarpon fishing Mexico sees all year long in Cozumel’s shallow flats. It’s not just Tarpon, either. Bonefish, Permit, Snook, and Jacks are all waiting – if you can take the heat!

August

Blue Marlin explode onto the scene in the Pacific, just as the Bisbee’s East Cape Offshore kicks off Cabo’s tournament season. All your inshore favorites are still in town in Riviera Maya.

September

Across the country, locals celebrate Diez y Seis, Mexico’s Independence Day. Crowds gather at midnight on the 15th to utter the grito (shout) that started the revolution. Expect fireworks, music, and dancing.

October

There’s only one event on everyone’s mind: the Bisbee’s Black & Blue. With millions of dollars in prizes and all the biggest names in sportfishing, this is unlike any other tournament on the planet.

November

Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is Mexico’s most iconic festival. Watch costumed crowds parade through the streets after an awesome day offshore in Cabo or fishing the reefs in Riviera Maya.

December

Fancy something a little different this Christmas? How about beaches and fresh Tuna steaks? December has the best Tuna fishing Mexico sees all year, with Yellowfin and Albacore across the Pacific Coast.

Puerto Morelos is a great little town. Has grown a lot since we were there 25 years ago but it’s still nice. Don’t have to deal with the crowds like at Cancun or Playa Del Carmen. Just make sure and check to see if it is the sargassum seaweed season. It smells bad and makes the water yucky.
