The crew worked really hard to keep the lines clear of sargassum and were on top of everything. The crew did most of the active fishing and we did the catching- not what we are used to but we adapted. we understand that most people do not know how to rig and set downriggers and outriggers. they have a great system and the experience shines through. The captain got on some fish during the slower and harder to fish season. Overall a great experience and we plan to return in the future during peak pelagic season for sails.

We recently chartered the *Marcangel* out of Puerto Morelos with a group of four close friends, and the experience was exceptional from the outset.

The crew—Julio, Diego, and Jamie—delivered a truly first-class day on the water. Their professionalism, precision, and deep understanding of the local fishing grounds were evident throughout. Their dedication ensured an incredibly successful outing—we landed over 20 mahi, making it a standout trip by any standard.

The *Marcangel* itself is an impressive vessel—generously sized and exceptionally comfortable—offering ample space for our group to move freely, relax, and fully enjoy the day without ever feeling confined.

The overall experience was elevated even further by the thoughtful hospitality onboard. The crew kept us well supplied with beer and water throughout the trip, and at one point prepared fresh ceviche using a small portion our catch—an unexpected highlight that was absolutely outstanding and added a unique, authentic touch to the day.

What truly sets this charter apart is the team. Julio, Diego, and Jamie strike the perfect balance between refined service and an engaging, enjoyable atmosphere. Their attention to detail and commitment to delivering a premium experience did not go unnoticed.

For those seeking a high-quality fishing charter in Puerto Morelos, the *Marcangel* represents a top-tier choice. This was a memorable, expertly run experience, and we look forward to returning.

First off, I want to say that both our captain and mate worked their absolute asses off to get us on as many fish as possible. We didn’t catch any trophies this trip, which was unfortunate, but I booked the charter a little too early in the season. That’s fishing though, you don’t catch monsters every time. What really makes the difference is the energy the crew brings and the effort they put in.

I’ve gone on many charters in my life, and I have never seen such an excited and determined crew. About six hours into our trip, we got hit by a monsoon-level storm, but that didn’t stop them. We pushed through and ended up catching more than 15 bottom fish, which our captain immediately turned into amazing fresh ceviche (keep in mind I hate fish and this stuff was amazing) while we were getting pelted with rain.

This crew is astounding. We learned a lot, and we had a lot of fun and laughs along the way. If you’re on the fence, book it, I promise it will be worth it. I’m already looking at coming back later this year or next year to chase that monster, and there’s no crew I’d rather do it with.

My family had the pleasure of fishing with Big Boss and her crew for a full 8 hour day. Our focus was on larger game, primarily Mahi Mahi, Marlin and Sailfish. Although no Marlin or Sailfish were caught, we did get 3 very large Mahi Mahi, one of which took nearly 30 minutes to battle to the boat. These guys put everything they had into trying to load our boat up. The ceviche the crew created with our Mahi Mahi was out of this world, and was devoured by our family. We plan on heading back in April again, and will definitely hire Big Boss’ crew.

Great day fishing. Slow start mainly due to the slightly choppy seas. Crew constantly trying different lures and tactics to increase chances. As soon as the conditions flattened out the fish arrived. King mackerel first ,then a Personal best Barracuda and finally a magnificent Sailfish around 140 pounds (again a Personal best). Didn’t get my Marlin (knew it was a long shot)but what a fantastic day. The Captain made us a delicious Cerviche lunch from the King Mackerel .The Sailfish was returned alive although Trophy Taxidermy is available, just not my thing. Highly recommended 👌
