8 Hour fishing trip with the family

Full Day Trip4 adults

A good fishing trip, the action was slow. The Captain did his best to get us on fish but like I said it was more fishing than catching. The Captain saved the day with some great Hound fish action. First time for me and my kids catching this species of fish. Great table fair, the resort chef hooked it up for the entire family. I would recommend that you make sure the crew picks up more live bait. We also did some great snorkeling on some rock piles that water was beautiful! Have fun! The V. Family

    Excellent crew

    Full Day Trip • 3 adults

    We booked an 8 hour deep sea fishing trip with three family members. The crew worked hard to find us the best chances. 3 longfin tuna and 1 jack cravalle into the boat. 2 marlin strikes. It was an excellent day. Well worth the trip.

    Caught loads

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    The guys worked non stop. Changing things up as we wanted for fish we wanted to catch and when things weren’t working. They put us on fish all day and caught bonito, jacks, and groupers. Was an absolute blast. They know what they were doing to help us catch big and lots of fish. Great fights. By the end of the day. Our arms were tired and beat up. But still had enough to lift cold beers at the end. We also saw tons of whales, dolphins, turtles and other wildlife. Highly recommended

    No pescamos nada

    3/4 Day Trip • 5 adults • 1 child

    El barco bien, el personal amable, pero después de 6 horas y media NO pescamos nada. Increíble! No fuimos ni a Mahahuita, ni a Yelapa, ni a los Arcos a snorkelear, hubiera estado mejor ir, al menos más dinámico para los niños. Estuvimos esperando pescar algo y nada. Al final bajamos 20 min a una playa virgen bonita, pero quedamos muy desilusionados, ya que era una actividad que estábamos esperando desde hace mucho tiempo.

    Great trip

    Snorkeling Mahahuitas-Yelapa • 2 adults

    We booked the Yelapa 6 hour fishing trip and it was a great experience. Miguel and his shipmate were very knowledgeable. We stopped at Yelapa and his shipmate walked us up to the waterfall and led us down to the restaurant which serves delicious food. We didn’t catch any fish but got to see some whales on the return home which was just as nice. The boat was clean and a comfortable ride. Miguel was very fluent in English. I would definitely recommend Miguel to anyone looking for a wonderful and safe fishing experience in Vallarta.
