  Perfect trip with Lori 3!

  4 Hours Traditional Trip on December 3, 2025

  We had an amazing 4-hour trip with Lori 3 fishing! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Captain Ramon and hand Jorge were excellent, Ramon has great English and took the time to explain the different options and trade-offs between focusing nearshore (smaller fish but more chance of hits) or in open water at the start of the trip. They adjusted the lines throughout the trip depending on what we were going after and when we had fish on the lines, supported us throughout. Thanks to them we were able to land a blue marlin, a sailfish and a bonito - and had a lot of fun! We understood that there’s not a great chance of landing a marlin over only 4 hours, but figured we would go for it anyways and we’re glad we did. We also saw whales, lots of dolphins, and a sea turtle. Lori 3 was also very easy to communicate with ahead of time, answered all our questions, and was flexible on timing - which was super important to us as we were in Manzanillo on a cruise ship and had only a limited time in port. For anyone who may be coming to Manzanillo on a cruise ship, don’t hesitate, Lori 3 is docked just a few minutes walk from the cruise port! All in all, it was a great experience and the Lori 3 team was very warm, fun, and most of all, professional!

  First time on the ocean

  Manzanillo Fishing Bay on February 24, 2026 • 3 adults

  Joel was an amazing captain and got us on fish right away. The boat was clean and safe. The weather in Manzanillo is spectacular! Highly recommend Five Reasons for your next trip. We did the bay trip today but want to do a longer one next year for sure.

  Had a great time

  5 Hours Traditional Trip on March 23, 2026 • 6 adults

  We had a fantastic day. The crew were the best. We didn’t catch any huge fish, but we kept busy catching bait fish and we did take home one Mahi Mahi for dinner. The crew was awesome and we had a good time.

  Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic day out on the water with us. While the "big ones" can be elusive sometimes, we're glad the crew kept the action going with the bait fish and that you were able to land a delicious Mahi Mahi for dinner. There is nothing quite like fresh catch on the table!

  Great Fishing Adventure

  4 Hours Traditional Trip on November 24, 2025 • 6 adults

  Captain and crew member were excellent. Between the five of us we caught many fish. Unfortunately the big one got away. We would definitely recommend Lori III if you are looking for a great fishing adventure.
