Fishing in Puerto Vallarta
Overlooking the Bay of Banderas, Puerto Vallarta screams incredible fishing before you even think of the deep waters of the Pacific. This lively resort town caters to tourists of all sorts, and the best way to get in on the action is aboard a Puerto Vallarta fishing charter. Come year-round to get your fishing fix in style!
Roosterfish top the bill in the Bay of Banderas, as you can find these strong yet dazzling creatures all over this shallow body of water. The nearshore reefs are home to Cubera Snapper, Groupers, and Amberjack, so you’re in for a mixed bag on even a short trip out.
Any angler worth their salt in Puerto Vallarta, however, knows that the real excitement lies offshore. Three of Mexico’s prime deep sea fishing grounds – El Morro, La Cortabeña, and El Banco – are all within reach from town. The resident Mahi Mahi population makes for year-long fun, while Tuna come by in summer, along with Blue, Black, and Striped Marlin, and even Sailfish in fall and winter. This is a true big game paradise!
Inshore and nearshore trips are a great option for beginners and families, with trips lasting from a couple of hours to half a day. Meanwhile, you’ll need at least a full day to get to the prime offshore fishing grounds. Most anglers favor spending over 12 hours on the water, with the real aficionados going for multi-day Puerto Vallarta fishing charters.
Rules & Regulations
Most charters in town provide a Mexican sportfishing license for all on board, but it’s worth checking with your captain if you need to get one before you board. Your professional guide will also be up-to-date with all the latest bag and size limits, so rest assured you’ll be fishing within the law.

Donโt expect too much, sometimes you are lucky and sometime your not. This is rainy season and fishing is more difficult, but if you happen to get the right crew you will be successful.

The fishing was a little slow at times, but the Spanish Mackerel were biting big in the morning. Afternoon slowed down a bit. Were not able to link up any Mahi or Marlin, but did grab a Rooster to end the day!

Pangas are great for 2 on in-shore, close-in fishing. If you're after bigger game fish, charter a bigger, faster (yes more expensive) boat.

This was the best, most comfortable boat I have booked yet, and I have gone 6 times now. Although it was quite expensive relative to others, this is NOT a panga experience. If you have 4-6 people who want to go out for the day, this is the boat for you. The captain and mate were fabulous and everyone involved was helpful and accommodating. Worth every penny.

Expectations were low going in due to the off season. It was about the experience of just being off land being my first time here in Puerta Vallarta. 3 of us caught 5 bonita fish early, dinner meal goals were achieved. The captain was engaged, knowledgeable and friendly. He kept a nice center console boat and the drink cooler was a nice touch. Was lucky to see a humpback, sea ray and a turtle. Great experience regardless of a BIG catch haul. Thumbs up to Captain Mario. I hope we meet again.

Our family enjoyed a beautiful day fishing with captain Mario and his deckhand Alex. We each caught so many white bonito and enjoyed whale watching, seeing a pod of dolphins, a couple huge manta ray, a sea turtle and the beautiful views. Mario and Alex were so professional and easy to work with and talk to. Their boat was clean and well maintained. We highly recommend them for your next fishing adventure.

As a casual or a die hard fisherwoman or man knows, you can get skunked on the water. Itโs part of the game. Captain Mario has the knowledge, skill and time for fishing the right way. I asked him to get us into fish and he delivered. We caught nine Bonitaโs in a couple of hours. He made sure before our trip ended that we would break double digits and we did! Lots of beers, free whale watching and a tonne of laughs. This guy is your captain for fishing in PV. You wonโt be disappointed.

Even though it was not the best time of year to fish in Puerto Vallarta, our crew had a great time. The captain and firstmate worked hard to put us on fish. We caught two spanish mackerel, one jack crevalle, and a beautiful striped marlin. We ate the mackerel in a great ceviche made by Javier. I highly recommend this boat!

Mario and Alejandro were fantastic.
Knowledgable. Engaging. Fun. And their heads and eyes were on constant swivel looking at every ruffle and bubble to find fish... which we did! Were not sure who was more excited to spot target and catch fish... our guides or us. Boat and gear excellent. Super glad we did the full 8 hours. Highly recommend Mario and Burton III. Tight lines!!!

Even though it was not the best time of year to fish in Puerto Vallarta, our crew had a great time. The captain and firstmate worked hard to put us on fish. We caught two spanish mackerel, one jack crevalle, and a beautiful striped marlin. We ate the mackerel in a great ceviche made by Javier. I highly recommend this boat!

Went on a short 4 hour trip and caught a Cervalle Jack was an awesome fight deck hand Carlos did an amazing job then 15 minutes later we caught a mahi mahi. Carlos called a restaurant on the boat and we had them cook it for us that evening.

Would highly recommend fishing with Captain Mario. Mario is professional, knowledgeable, and worked extremely hard to get us our fish. Everyone in our party had a great time. We caught lots of fish and plan to use Mario again when we come back to Puerto Vallarta!

The cre2 and Captain were top notch. Helpful, informative and great Fresh Ceviche less than two hours out of the water, with guacamole and ice cold beer. They filleted the catch as well as any sushi chef around. Thanks for a great day!

Spent a full day on water w Burton III.
Mario and Alejandro were fantastic.
Knowledgable. Engaging. Fun. And their heads and eyes were on constant swivel looking at every ruffle and bubble to find fish... which we did! Were not sure who was more excited to spot target and catch fish... our guides or us. Boat and gear excellent. Super glad we did the full 8 hours. Highly recommend Mario and Burton III. Tight lines!!!
