Made a last minute booking and was accommodated very well, and I was very glad I booked with Cancun Light Tackle & Fly Fishing Tours. Firstly, let me say that the economical value of this trip is great, and as a very frugal angler this was to my satisfaction. The per hour rate rivals that of lesser quality fishing experiences, yet you are paired with a guide that knows the lagoon like the back of their hand. My guide Noel (no L’s with Noel) knew exactly what to look for, and there aren’t many experienced inshore sportfishermen in Cancun (most are either not catch and release and/or offshore). This is much better value than going for barracudas out in the bay, as thats all you can book in the under $500 range of “offshore fishing”. I got to target bonefish (a fish people pay thousands for) flats sightfishing, casting into feeding snook and tarpon, and more. Unfortunately the one fish I lost this trip was a 10-20 pound class snook that jumped and threw the hook at the end of the trip, but I would definitely book again the next time I’m in Cancun for another shot at the big one.

We had such a great morning! 5 different types of fish caught between my boyfriend I. Noel was our guide and he was fun and sweet and very knowledgeable. We felt like we were fishing with one of our buddies from home. This was perfect for me as I have no desire to deep sea fish cause I get sick. This was relaxing but also exciting and fun!

I am fortunate enough to get to fish several times a year in different locations with guides. Martin, the owner and Jose my captain were both great. We caught fish, had great conversation, and the service was top-notch.  Friendly and professional. They also arrange my ground transportation back to the resort. Highly recommend.

Without hesitation I would recommend this trip to anyone traveling to Cancun.  The price is very reasonable and the captain was very experienced.  Everything was great with the exception of the fish. They just didn’t cooperate.  Other reviewers commented that experienced anglers might not enjoy this trip.  My guess would be that those persons don’t fish backwater very often.  We saw ALOT of fish tarpon snook ect.  The captain worked hard and I could sense that he was frustrated that we couldn’t buy a fish.  All in all if I come back to Cancun I plan to fish with this outfit again.

you Must go fishing with these guys. So professional and great to spend a day with while putting you on the fish.
