We chartered this fishing boat for my birthday, and it was hands-down one of the best decisions I’ve made. We hooked five fish and managed to reel in three—plenty for a fresh feast and even better for the stories.

The captain and crew were phenomenal. They kept the lines in the water, the drinks flowing, and the energy relaxed yet lively. What really stood out was how they wove in local knowledge—sharing insights about the fish, the culture, and the land with the kind of ease that made learning feel like part of the fun.

The cherry on top? After docking at the pier, the captain personally walked us to a nearby restaurant where our catch was cooked to perfection. Talk about ending the day in style.

I’d recommend this crew to anyone looking for a laidback, memorable adventure. I’ll definitely be back—and next time, I’m aiming for all five fish in the boat.

It was a last minute plan for our trip…and we booked with Super Panga Tres Estrellas. The first thing I liked was that they contacted me right after booking. Everyone caught fish and had a great time even though we only booked a half day. Captain Gabriel was excellent at navigating the fish and was very helpful throughout the trip. My nephew caught a huge fish…and brought it back to Minnesota to show off to his friends and family. If you are wondering about fishing in Puerto Vallarta, I recommend Super Panga Tres Estrellas for a great experience.

Angel and Carlos put in the work to get us on the fish. The swells in PV were 4’+ and there was heavy boater traffic. Angel reached out to other services and got good tips on where to hook up. We caught Crevalle Jacks 12k+. Although not a guaranteed experience, we saw whales breaching, sea turtles, and a Manta Ray as big as a car hood. That Manta was our good luck…. Three rods singing just after sighting. Great job Angel and Carlos. 100% will book again!

I can’t recommend these guys enough.  Even if we didn’t catch anything I would’ve been happy with how well he read the water and explained his thought process to me.  He was also willing to listen to my input and seemed as excited to catch fish as I was. 

I was originally signed up on a night fish for snapper and grouper but I got a call from the captain who said “look man, it’s not good season for that, I recommend marlin, tuna, or mahi.” So we changed it to meet at 7am.  Immediately I learned a lot about the local fishing, tide lines, etc. as we motored out.  After talking to some other boats we decided to head farther out where there is a small island.  Once we caught out bait (skipjack) it was just a waiting game.  As soon as one of the other boats left the captain remarked that the fishing was about to pick up because the skipjack started jumping.  Just like that FISH ON!  After about 20 minutes we landed a 25-30kg sailfish.  Already a dream.  We decided to keep going and as the captain said, that was the appetizer.  Caught some more bait and ALMOST had what would’ve been the biggest tuna I’ve seen but it didn’t hook, just bit the bait in half!  Gave it a little longer before we got another strong bite.  As we wondered what it was we saw a giant marlin jump at the end of the line.  We hooted and hollered and settled in for an hour and a half fight with a huge black marlin.  Got it on board like a pro and we booked it back home with a beer to celebrate. 

Bring a cooler if you fish with these guys cuz they know their stuff and if the fish are there, they will find them.

The day started off a little rainy, but Captain Angel said don’t worry we will get on the fish. We motored out from los Muertos to los Arcos and found a good spot to start trolling. The captain got our baits in the water and within half an hour we had our first bite. It was a double hook up, but the mahi-mahi came off. My son reeled in his first shark! We let that one go but soon enough my son reeled in his first mahi-mahi! We had some other action, saw turtles, lots of bait fish, some jumping sailfish and caught another mahi which we released. A+++ day. Highly recommend these guys!
