Our captain Carlos was so lovely, he was super chill and friendly. Firstly overall we had a good time, we saw humpback whales, seals, and manta rays really close, as well as all the beautiful scenery
We didnโt get to catch any fish. While there were rods casted out they didnโt have any bait, so that part was set up to fail. So the fishing portion was a bit disappointing as my partner and I had really wanted to go fishing for a couple of years
If you are going to go out I would save yourself the hassle and just organize the bait yourself

Good morning, itโs good that you spent a pleasant afternoon enjoying the countries and having the fortune of seeing the different marine species since this does not happen all the time. Unfortunately it was not a good day of fishing, but we tried. The afternoon fishing charter does not include bait because it is only sold in the morning, so we do other types of fishing, such as trolling, casting or jigging, depending on the fish we find. Greetings!!
Communication was pretty easy through Fishing Booker. We asked last minute about getting picked up, since the walk from our hotel was longer than expected. Julio offered to pick us up at waterside off the Malecรณn, a short 3 block walk. We opted for in-shore fishing and headed out near Isla Esperatu Santo. We bought bait offshore, but knew that would happen from other reviews ($25US/$500MX). We traveled about an hour before we started fishing. The sunrise was great and it was a beautiful morning. We had no idea what we might catch! Whatever was biting, per Julio. We ended up catching 8 skipjack tuna. The capt was really taking charge of the gear, so I had to ask for one of the poles. Iโd never used a baitcaster before but quickly learned. They were filleted and we kept two and shared the rest. La Costa restaurant, which was right where the boat was parked, cooked our fish as requested and made it a great meal. The only thing we were unprepared for was tipping the captain. Our 22โ boat and gear was all handled by him. We never chartered a fishing trip before so it was new to us. There were several boats near us, and I would almost bet we caught the most fish!ย If I ever return to La Paz, we would book again with La Shina.ย It may also be good to let them know ahead of time if you plan to pay at the end with a card. ๐๐ป

Thank you very much for your comment, we hope to see you soon
We had a great time! Got there and we were out on the water in less than 5 minutes. There were 3 of us and the boat was a good size for us. Once we got to the spot our lines were in the water fast. Had a fish on within the first few minutes. We ended up catching 4 fish but only one was the kind you want to eat (white Bonita) On the way back we did some trolling but no bites. Capitan Julio was awesome and knew how to treat us based on our skill level. We took the fish to a local restaurant the next morning and is was absolutely delicious. If youโre looking for a fishing trip that is all business than go here.

thank you a pleasure to serve you, we hope to see you soon and enjoy another great day at sea
Nos tocรณ con el Capitรกn **hidden content** inicio se le โolvidรณโ darnos el lunch.Y lo demรกs fue como un paseo en lancha para verlo pescar,lo รบnico que haces un poco si es que pescas algo es enrollar.Seguramente una pesca de orilla hubiera sido mรกs divertida. Ya habรญa leรญdo reseรฑas asรญ y son completamente reales.
Unfortunately, the captainโs phone failed that morning, and he couldnโt see the message about his lunch. I discussed the matter with the client, apologizing and willing to refund the incident. Regarding the fishing, the work was carried out as we always do, and the client wanted to fish with a line in hand, which we donโt do. Unfortunately, it wasnโt the bottom fishing season, which was what the client wanted. I always try to provide the best for my clients, and when the fishing day isnโt very good, my captains are ordered to provide 1 to 2 hours of overtime without charging a single cent.

This exceeded my expectation and the local knowledge that the captain brought was unmatched. We were running late and no time to grab some lunch and thankfully the captain had food for us. Put us right on the fish ย We had a hook up within minutes of getting to the fishing grounds.
