Member since June 2019 Los Barriles, Mexico
Background
I have been fishing since 1989. I started fishing as a sailor at the Rancho Buena Vista hotel when I was 17 years old, then I became a sailor at Hotel Buena Vista for many years. Over time, I was a sailor in Martin Verdugo's for 6 years where I started to gain experience until I was promoted to captain, where I worked for 11 years, until today, where I have my own Super Panga boat. Today, I have 30 years of experience in sport fishing.
Techniques
I like that my clients decide what they want to fish, from Marlin, Dorado, Tuna, and other species.
