Fresh Riviera Maya Fishing Reports

We came across a large shoal of 6 sharks that bit only one we managed to release after a great 50-minute fight

Nice day

On March 5th, we headed out for a 6 hour fishing and snorkeling adventure with a group of three guests. The weather was beautiful and sunny, though the ocean had a bit of chop, making for an exciting ride offshore. We started the trip fishing with live bait and focused on bottom fishing, where the group caught several nice snappers. Later in the trip we switched techniques and began jigging, which paid off with a strong amberjack. After the fishing action, the group enjoyed some time snorkeling in the clear Caribbean waters. To finish the experience, the captain prepared a fresh ceviche using the catch of the day, the perfect way to end a great day on the water.

Great Afternoon Fishing Action – Grouper, Red Snapper & Amberjack! Fishing conditions in Playa del Carmen have been excellent lately, especially during the afternoon trips. We are currently seeing great activity for bottom fishing, which is producing some very exciting catches. Over the last few days, our guests aboard Alondra III Sport Fishing Riviera Maya have been landing large grouper, beautiful red snapper, and powerful amberjack (locally known as coronado). These species are providing strong fights and an unforgettable experience for anglers of all levels. We practice responsible fishing, focusing on sustainability and conservation. Many of the larger fish are released safely, allowing them to continue growing and keeping our fishery healthy for the future. The sea conditions in the afternoons have been very comfortable, and this type of fishing is perfect for families, beginners, and experienced anglers looking for action. After the trip, guests also have the option to enjoy their catch at a local restaurant right in front of the marina, where they can prepare it in different delicious styles (ceviche, garlic fish, or fish fingers for tacos). If you're visiting the Riviera Maya, this is a great time to get on the water and experience the excitement of fishing with our experienced local crew. Come join us aboard Alondra III and create unforgettable fishing memories! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This fishing technique always brings exciting surprises and great catches. Join us for an unforgettable day on the water!”

On March 3rd, we had a great 4 hour fishing tour with a couple who joined us for a morning adventure, departing at 7:00 AM. The weather was beautiful and sunny, with hot temperatures throughout the trip. The ocean was a little choppy, but nothing too uncomfortable, conditions were still very manageable and perfect for getting lines in the water. We started the trip trolling, using both live bait and artificial lures to cover more ground and look for active fish. After working a few productive areas, we switched things up and finished the trip with jigging and bottom fishing. That strategy paid off. The couple successfully landed a nice amberjack and several yellowtail snappers, making for an exciting and rewarding morning on the water. Overall, it was a fun trip with good action, solid technique changes throughout the morning, and a happy couple enjoying their time at sea.
