What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora for the first time?

This place is great for either beginners or experienced anglers. If you have no experience and want to get hooked on fishing, try a half day trip and you will be back for more.

Make sure you have a captain who knows where the fish are and is willing to move you around to get them. Jefe would be our first choice.

Yes. The volume of fish can be plentiful, albeit smaller fish. Options for larger fish exist, but may be less plentiful. Each angler's decision to make.

Tell your Captain EXACTLY what kind of fishing experience you want. Otherwise, they can putter around the Bay and just catch basic fish. Not a high skill level. Croakers are everywhere.

See Capt. Jaimez at Pelican fishing charter He was really great one of the best days I have had in a long time. Caught so many fish and the trip was 1st rate.

We were all first time fisherman and Christopher made sure we all caught fish and had a great time while doing it!

Schedule your trip well in advance and give yourself flexibility in the Spring forrl for inclimate weather.

Absolutely fantastic, We will Return. Carlos and Dillon where perfect as crew. The 4 of us had a great time.

Go out with El Jefe! He'll put you on the fish right away and keep you there. He's very patient with newbies.

Dress for the weather. So thankful we had layers including hats and gloves. The wind kicked up and we were able to stay comfortable and keep fishing

Making sure its the right seson for traget fish. September is not a good month.

Fish with skipper Martin. He will put you on the fish and you will have a lively day!

The wind effects the water more than anything, so hope for a day with little wind.

Not a big pelagic fishery. But plenty of bottom fish for tacos, and a good time...

Make sure the weather is calm if you want to catch anything other than sea bass or trigger fish.

I would definitely give it a shot, sun block, and plan on having a Great Time!!!

Remember Dramamine just in case, and eat the fresh catch. Fresh fish is the best.
