NOTE:  Each sportfishing boat has a Captain and mate(s) with State-of-the-Art Big Gamefishing equipment.  You will enjoy three full days of World Class, Big Game fishing action on calm seas in sight of land.  We typically run for about one hour to get to the best action, however,  sometimes the bite is only 10 or 12 miles off the beach. 

FISH:   You can expect to see Pacific Sailfish, Blue/Black/Stripe Marlin, Tuna, and Dorado in the offshore areas.  Near the rocky shoreline of Playa Blanco, you will typically see giant Roosterfish, Sailfish, Snapper, Grouper, and Amberjack.

TIPS:  Suggested tip for Boat Captain and mate(s) is a minimum of $100 U.S. per angler at the end of the three full days of fishing.  Your gratuity is divided accordingly.  If you feel you would like to provide a larger than minimum tip for the excellent service that the boat staff provided you, please feel free to do so. It is greatly appreciated!
