Hi James,
Thanks for posting your review so we can clarify. You booked a 4-hour charter which is in-bay charter and the shortest duration offered by every fishing charter in the region. On the booking site, it is described as, “You’ll spend the day targeting Pacific Barracuda, Spanish Mackerel, Bonito, Jack Crevalle, and with some luck, a Mahi Mahi or two. You’ll stay within 20 miles of the shore.”, which is exactly the experience you were provided.
A 4-hour charter is predominately a trolling charter, and we took the opportunity to keep the lines out to get you the best catch possible for the day. However, as a fisherman you know, we can’t guarantee a huge catch every day or a specific fish. But we can always guarantee that we will put in our best effort for every guest and were happy that you did get you a successful Jack Crevalle catch.
Regarding the departure time, there was a small miscommunication as you requested a later departure by text after office hours the night prior to your charter but arrived in the marina at your original time. We made it there on time for you and left the dock at 7am, then stopped for live bait and ice which is on the way out of the marina, and at that time, we started the clock on your 4-hour day.
We’re sorry that we didn’t get the catch you were looking for but thank you for your feedback. It’s a good opportunity to make future guests aware that 4-hour charters are in-bay charters no matter which captain they fish with, and that reading the descriptions of what is offered on different lengths of charters is important when deciding upon your fishing day.
Thank you

Hi Chris,
Thanks for editing your review so we could better respond. You booked a 6-hour charter which is an in-bay charter for every fishing charter working in our region. Banderas Bay is the second largest bay on the Pacific and a 6-hour charter gives us the ability to fish the two best grounds to the north (which are 18 and 24 miles out from the marina) or to the best grounds to the south (which are 24 miles from the marina).
We did provide live bait, as we do on all charters, which was waiting on board, but as a 6-hour charter is predominately a trolling charter, we took the opportunity to keep the lines out for additional bait to try to get you the best catch possible for the day. However, as a fisherman you know, we can’t guarantee a huge catch every day, but we can always guarantee that we will put in our best effort for every guest.
We’re sorry that we didn’t get the catch you were looking for but thank you for your feedback. It’s a good opportunity to make future guests aware that 6-hour charters are in-bay charters and that in Puerto Vallarta off-shore fishing is a 10 to 12-hour trip, no matter which captain they fish with.
Thank you
