Discover the beauty of Nuevo Vallarta’s waters with Pacific Fishing & Tours and the expertise of Captain Carlos. With years of experience, he’ll guide you in targeting species like Mahi Mahi, Roosterfish, Marlin, Sailfish, and more—using light or heavy tackle, trolling, or even kite fishing.

You’ll head out on a 22’ Hydra-Sports boat for up to 4 guests, equipped with outriggers, fishing gear, and a toilet for comfort.

Rods, reels, lures, and live bait are included. A First Mate will assist you—tips (10–20%) are appreciated.

diehard fisherman!

4 Hour Trip – Sunset on March 25, 2025

My wife and I booked a 4 hour sunset trip quite last minute due to the sloooow shore fishing that I was experiencing (along with everyone else) at PV. When we arrived at the dock we were given the option of fishing for bonita, which they absolutely hammered in the morning, or trying for some jacks (I had messaged them that I was more interested in fewer, bigger fish prior to the trip). The jack pursuit was explained to be much more hit and miss due to changing conditions, but I've caught (literally) a million sub-10 pound fish in my life so I opted to try for the bigger jacks. I really appreciated the honesty of the guys and they were totally up for tweaking the trip however we wanted. Most importantly they knew the bay like the back of their hands and were without a doubt the most skilled fisherman that I have been with. My wife (who has endured hundreds of thousands of hours in the boat with me and can get a little annoyed at my never-say-die attitude - "let's just try one more spot...") leaned over after about 3 hours of watching and listening to the guys (she speaks Spanish) and said "...I can't believe there are other fisherman as diehard as you - all they are talking about is how to get us on more fish this whole time." Overall we had a blast and ate the best ceviche I've ever had on the boat with some of our fresh catch. Highly recommend!

Great fishing and captains.

4 Hour Trip – Sunset on March 25, 2025

Both of the captains cared a lot about our experience and doing most of the fishing ourselves instead of them just handing us rods. After we caught the fish they made us ceviche and filleted the fish for us. Overall it was an amazing experience for a great price.

Great day on the ocean

6 Hour Trip on June 2, 2025

Mitchell and George were the best and very knowledgeable about the fishing conditions. We caught bait on the way out to sea and caught several Bonita. The real surprise was the blue marlin.8 foot long and took about 2 hours to bring in.

Couldn’t have asked for a better trip

4 Hour Trip – Sunset on March 25, 2025

We had the absolute best time on this trip. Our captain and his first mate were both incredibly knowledgeable, taking us to the places where they knew we would catch fish - and boy did we! My son and I pulled in 6 large Bonita in less than 4 hours. The captain took the smallest one and made the freshest ceviche of our lives right on the boat (and there was tons leftover - that’s how beautiful these fish were) and then he cleaned and packaged the other 5 for me. My only regret was that I didn’t offer some to them - because it completely slipped my mind; this was my fist time ocean fishing, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. In addition to the fishing, we saw so much wildlife, with the crew pointing out everything along the way; they were so knowledgeable about the ocean, the area, the animals, and of course the fishing - just a perfect day! Again, I wish I shared more of the catch with them, but like I said, it didn’t even occur to me until I was on my way home. I could not recommend these guys more than I am right now. I wish I could give them more stars and post some pictures, but if you’re in the puerto Vallarta area and want the time of your life, book with them. Don’t look elsewhere, don’t bother shopping around - it would be really hard to top this. We can’t wait to go again…with them.
