    Second time out in 5 years with Mamacita & still awesome!

    Half Day Trip (PM) • 3 adults • 1 child

    Took my 8-year-old daughter on a 4-Hour fishing trip with Mamacita, we had an awesome time. Rambo and Diego are great and very knowledgeable about the area and where to find the good fish. They got us hooked up on four beautiful bluefin tuna and a nice sized barracuda. Was so cool watching them help my little girl hook and land the fish. They were great with her. This was her first deep sea fishing experience and has never caught anything bigger than a small to medium rainbow trout. This just blew all of them out of the water. I think she's hooked now. Huge thank you going out to Rambo and Diego again. We will definitely be contacting you guys for another fishing trip next time we are out in Cancun.

    Reported catch:
    Great Barracuda

    Amother great trip on the Mamacita !

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults

    This is our 2nd time on the Mamacita, our previous trip was in July of 2025. It was a great experience and our August 2026 trip exceeded expectations. Captain Romeo fished hard even though the seas were very rough . By the end of the day, our fish count included a sailfish, bonita, horse eye jack, yellow tail snapper and red snapper. Deckhand Diego make us ceviche from the bonita which was delicious. We will be back in 2027 for another trip on the Mamacita !!

    My husband and son did a fishing trip this morning and it was absolutely fantastic. Captain Rambo and his crew were top notched and a very talented fishing crew. They brought in over 20 different fish. We will be booking him again on our next trip!!!

    Tuvimos una gran día de pesca, pescamos 11 peces, Dorados, Arco Iris, Pargo, Atún y Barracuda, sin duda un muy buen día para pescar, Diego y Rambo se esmeraron en tener todo listo y preparado, le sacamos mucho provecho a las 4 horas de pesca, lo recomiendo mucho. Felicidades a la tripulación!

November kicks off with a bang with All Saints Day. With that comes the beginning of the peak tourist season - the weather is dry and the hotels are more expensive. Snook is biting well inshore.
