Absolutely. We were a party of three with two first timers. So glad they caught the best fish too. The boat is a perfect set. Loved it all!!

Andrew Oneal
40lbs of tuna fillet and 90lbs of Mahi fillet in 4 hours... This guy knows how to fish ! He's also a complete pleasure to be around.

Jennifer Garaghty
You can’t beat it. We had our villa send us with breakfast and tacos for lunch and a few coolers for the boat. It all worked out great!

Philip Kothmayer
Great trip. Be sure to get the name of the restaurant near the dock so the taxi driver can find it easily.

Make sure you let your captain know what species you would like to target. You can almost always experience some success if you're willing to be flexible with what you target.

Find the right boat. Look for a boat that is actually captained by the person in the advertisement and that has the reviews so you don't end up in the wrong boat like me.

Not sure if June is the best time. They did mention that November was the best time. We still had fun though

Took my wife and kids out but they don’t have sea legs and felt sick so we went back after fishing only 1.5 hrs

Target the species that are migrating into the area and ask questions to see what bite is hot at the moment

Go out with a crew that crew that is willing, and able to do everything, but will let you do as much as you can. This way you feel comfortable when it all does happen.

Get an Uber or taxi for early morning fishing. It's a little confusing driving to the marina in the early morning from the hotel strip.

Mahi mahi tastes amazing best fish since I don’t like tuna. oh and they are pretty if you didn’t notice

Keep an open mind, don't let what you want to catch, versus what you do catch determine the quality of time on the water. Because, remember, its all about the tug!

Guy Eldredge
Watch the water temps… March-April is early and the water is still cooling down

Randy Pewthers
No one really were catching Marlin. That's what we were after. They just weren't eating.

Manuel Aguilar
Bring enough food and beverage to share with your captain. Protect your skin from the sun.

Kevin Vasquez
From San Jose it’s a quick trip to the fishing grounds, 30 min or less. Great inshore fishing!

William Arbogast
The hottest time of year is not the best for fishing or enjoying being outside.

Anna De Jesus
Not the busiest time for fish but it’s always a good time when you reel one in.

Stephen Caselton
Same as previously stated, fishing won’t be spectacular every time you go out !

Jason Tinling
Expect a lot of trolling and remember the adage “It’s called “fishing,” not “catching.”

Rick Lefler
Just make sure you have enough clothing to stay covered up. Even with sunscreen you will burn.

Daniel Cabacungan
Great whale watching, but choose a captain that is more engaging if you want to have a good time.

Jake Steiner
This was our third year fishing in SJD in January and have had successful trips each time

Noah Osman

It’s less crowded then Cabo San Lucas and is worth the inconveniences of getting there.

Tk Khan

Best time is when waters are warmer as in October, November, December, January....

We live in San Jose Del Cabo, it's much easier then driving all the way to Cabo.
