Be ready to catch fish! If the captain reaches out and asks what kind of fish you would like to catch, I suggest saying "the big ones." That's just me. We were informed that we could have targeted some other fish that were further south, but they would not likely to be very big. When the captain knew we wanted to hunt for bigger fish, he took us to where the big fish were. It did not disappoint. we caught huge bonito, king mackerel and a bull shark. The crew provided us with a cooler full of water, soda and beer. That was great. I strongly suggest bringing your own meal from your resort and layers to hide you from the sun. sunscreen is not comfortable when you're fishing under the sun all day.

Well the trip should have been canceled
Lightning and thunderstorms a water spout
15 foot waves every one got sick couldn't stand up on the boat. Spent 3 hour holding on for dear life. Worse thing I ever did.

Weather could be tricky, so check the night before that your trip and captains equipment is still good.
Check for additional fees with your captain before you come. This particular trip was what I expected, but some others charge more fees that were not listed

Come without expectations. It's fishing after all. The team will do their best. We caught so many fish our arms are sore from reeling them in.
Bring snacks if you want them. Helpful on an 8 hour trip. And yes I would only go on an 8 hour trip. The value and experience is too great to pass up.

Cancun is warm waters almost year round so fishing is always good. Consider what you’re hoping to catch as they do have seasons for certain fish and if you want to deal with possible weather or wind issues as there are times of year these are more predictable in planning. Cancun fishing is some of the best around for cost and catch. I’ve fished the east coast of the US and Gulf Stream, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and Cancun many teams. Cancun is at the top of my list for offshore fishing experience.

Martin and Spicy(deckhand) took great care of us and got us on fish within minutes of getting to the fishing grounds. We had doubles a few times. When we were done fishing Spicy made us ceviche. It was some of the best I had ever eaten. If I come back to Cancun, I will most definitely be reaching out to Martin again.

Had a great trip, first time out in the ocean and it went great. Beautiful day, low minds and fun time with captain Romeo. Started off catching some live bait and was slow at first but then caught 4 fish right away and headed out to deeper seas. Once out, had plenty of fishing and beers in between the wait. In total we caught 6 fish but 3 were too small to keep and brought back 3. Would highly recommend this trip for anyone that wants to try sea fishing.

Bring Cash!!!!!!! Go with bigger boats for comfort, take at least 8 hours trip, and ask the captain to fish got the more difficult bigger fish first save the last few hours to catch the easiest fish.

If you are an avid fisherman, tell the captain no trolling. If you troll, they put the bait on the rod. They do the casting. They fish. All you do is bring the fish in once hooked. So they have all the fun and pay them too. I want a fishing rod in my hand at all times. I don't want to sit on the boat and be bored watching them do everything. That is not my style of fishing. I cast, I caught the fish.

If you come for the fishing and plan to take your catch home, make sure that the hotel you book will allow/provide you to use their freezer space for your fish. You don't want to be hauling 2 or 3 day old fish anywhere unless it is frozen as soon as possible after being caught. Freezer space at hotels on the West Coast (Cabos) is standard but we have run into some difficulties here in Cancun. The resort owners need to step it up and accommodate anglers that want to keep their catch.

Smaller boat and small crew. However wonderful trip for 2-4 adults due to boat size. We caught a giant barracuda with really no problem so the gear, tackle etc was effective. Crew was very very nice and understand English great. Give them a shot!!!!

I 100% recommend it to all ages. They were very professional and helpful about what we should do with our catch. We ate ceviche and fish tacos from oylur barracuda catch at the onsite restaurant. My only advice is is specify what you want cooked. We had 32 tacos and 2 bowls of ceviche for 3 people. My family had a great time!!!!

Don't go out if water conditions were like ours if you are prone to seasickness. Two of the four in our party got seasick because of the water conditions.
The conditions were not the best, but the boat and crew were top-notch. We thoroughly enjoyed the fishing and the fish we caught made it worth it.

Timothy R Davis
When they hint that it may be rough , they know the area. We had fished rough water before. others will not enjoy it.

Darren Gray
I recommend the Nuj Kay. The captain and first mate were very friendly and worked hard to put us on fish.

Edward Kirkpatrick
this is a great trip for those who enjoy being more active in their fishing with casting and using plastic / live bait to target selective fish.

Dawna Montell
Normal fishing experience. Bring a snack. Plenty of drinks on board. Water. Soda and beers. Variety of fish will be caught. Excellent experience!

Donald Cocherl
I’ve been out on other boats and got fish airflow to keep somebody cool is key this time of year fishing in Cancun

Mark Montini
Bring the motion sickness medicine if you even remotely get sea sick. Been deep sea fishing a lot and never gotten sick but the waves are big and will definitely take you for a ride.

John Tietsort
You will have a great time with Mario. His boat is amazing and knows his stuff. Book it you will not regret it...

Anthony Chen
Beware of going deep sea fishing if you are prone to sea sickness. These waves will make people who never get sick, sick.

The captain and crew for very forthright in letting us know that fishing had somewhat slowed. However, we ended up having a very fun and successful day! If you listen to your crew and trust them they will do all they can to put you on the fish you want. For us, it wasn't about the type of fish but more about trying to find something to mount on our wall at home. I struggled with going for a trophy vs. food, but ultimately we ended up catching only bonita and tuna so we certainly enjoyed the best of both worlds being able to mount 2 trophy-quality fish in our 9-fish catch!

Go to captain Melvin on The Big Hook if you want a truly memorable fishing experience

Matthew Hite
Don’t come during August-November fishing is horrible according to the deck hand.

Roxanne Merrill
Have extra money for fees and tips not listed in your booking. Go early,morning is best.

Myles Huling
I did a 4 hour trip. I highly suggest doing longer. Fishing was slow but what we did manage to hook up was worth the wait

Stephen Pomatto
This charter was at the start of the Wahoo (Ono) season and as most know timing is crucial. Make sure to have sunscreen, fishing shirt and snacks.

This is the first my husband and I fished in Cancun, it was exceptional! Captain Mauricio taught me how to fish patiently. I caught two fishes on my own, we highly recommend anyone to try.

Its worth the experience but try to come when the fish you want are in season and its not 40 degs outside.
