Great Day on the Water - Fernando and Mitzon were fantastic from meeting us at the dock to our goodbye. Their boat is open air, but the large covering allowed us coverage from the intense sun. They set-up the fishing lines and gave great instructions. We hooked something right away, but it broke free with the line at the boat. It was clear they were using all of their knowledge to find the best spots. The hospitality was fantastic. They gave us space but checked in to ensure we had what we needed in drinks and made us fantasti, fresh guacamole. We had great conversation, and it is clear their pride for Puerto Vallarta is strong. We had a fantasy day on the water.
We would all recommend and use them again for a cruise, fishing, or excursion.

Loved the fishing day - Fernando was an awesome host. We caught quite a few fish, nothing huge, but we are in the off season. It was a lot of fun to pull anything in. great vibes, clean boat, delicious guac,. reasonable price. Couldn't ask for much more.

Great intro to ocean fishing for kids - The crew was patient and great with kids. We had a great day! It was easy to get to and from the marina, the iguanas were very cool in the area, and the boat was perfect for 4 hours.

Amazing Experience - If I could give the team and this excursion more than 5 starts I would! They got us on fish right away and my husband and I both caught a lot! I know it's called fishing and not catching but the crew is so knowledgeable that they will definetly get you to where the fish are. They had a variety of beverages on board and they made us the best guacamole we have ever tasted! I definetly reccomend this amazing fishing charter!

Amazing Experience - Went out with Captain Fernando and Mixon, our fishing trip was absolutely amazing. My kiddos thought they would catch 1-3 fish and they caught fish in the double digits. Lots of laughs and fun stories. Fernando and Mixon are the absolute best, funny, professional, great service and just simply awesome. The boys kept an alligator fish and had it cooked for lunch at Sticky Fingers. Pretty cool. Highly recommend taking the private tour, our family totally enjoyed our trip.

No fish…just birds - Unfortunately we didn’t catch a single fish…just birds. Birds kept stealing the bait. Guacamole was good. Glad drinks were included but hard to indulge without a bathroom onboard🤪. Guides were great. Not a bad experience , just disappointing to not catch a single fish.
