Captain
Jorge Caldelas

Member since July 2018 Playa Del Carmen, Mexico
Background
We started running The Rusty Hook in 2012 after returning back to Mexico from England. We are passionate about fishing and providing an honest and fun experience for both novice and experienced fishermen.
Techniques
I love to go troling during the months when we have Blue Marlin here as these fish are incredible to see close up. But I also like deep bottom fishing for red snapper and grouper as these fish are really great on the BBQ.
