Just some minutes after leaving the beach, we hooked the first fish. I wanted to try with my fly rod and some minutes later I caught my first bonito on the fly.
We had crazy fishing for more than three hours and totally caught more than 30 bonitos, 13 on my fly rod. Last hour we took one of the bonitos and did some bottom fishing. After some few minutes we hooked a really nice amber jack. 20 minutes of hard workout to get the fish in the boat.
What a day!! Really nice crew with the experience and knowledge to put you on the right spot.
If you easily get sea sick, this trip ain’t for you.
Looking forward to to fish with the crew again!!

Captain Carlos and first Mate Omar were 100% dedicated to making this fishing trip a memorable one. It was a nice,.sunny clear day.  We started the 4 hour trip with captain Carlos setting up 5 lines for trolling and the trolling for about 2.5 hours of but didn’t get any bites. The sargassum was unfortunately sticking to the rig, and we didn’t get any action.

After that, we decided to do some bottom fishing. Captain Carlos setup the rigs in two lines for bottom fishing and lady luck hit our side. My father pulled in three red/queen snapper during his first attempt! He had never been fishing. My wife caught two on one line as well. We ended up getting 12 red/queen snapper total in about an hour if bottom fishing! They worked tirelessly switching rigs and baiting/hooking the lines for us. I couldn’t recommend a better crew, these guys did their best to make sure we didn’t go home empty handed. Thank you gentlemen for the memories!

We arrived a little late, Captain and first mate were very polite, easy to talk to and helpful, they explained things for any questions we had. We had a ton of fun, not as much luck with trolling (only the 1barracuda) but deep sea fishing was hot. We dipped in the ocean for a bit, seeing sting rays, turtles and a variety of fish. Good day, for the price and awesome service we’d go ahead with Al Gusto fishing excursions.

fishing al gusto crew are great fishermen who are knowledgeable on what they do and itshows.. minutes into our ride on the water we hooked a sail fish, the guys instructed us how and what to do to bring the fish into boat. it was the best experience ever and al gusto crew helped in creating such a great cancun experience.  Definitely will reach out to the team on our next time out in Cancun.

We had THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME! I recommend this experience to the highest degree. These guys were the most fun and exciting crew I could have ever asked for. We had an absolute blast.  We caught 2 triggers and 2 banana fish, the trigger was DELICIOUS. We will most definitely be back to Fishing Al Gusto when we come back to Playa!!! Book, book, book this experience!
