DO I NEED TO RESERVE IN ADVANCE? |

WHAT IS DEEP SEA "OFFSHORE" FISHING ? |
| |
Deep sea
fishing is trolling along the channel between Cozumel Island and the Mayan Riviera, outside
the protected areas of the Marine Park and in deep water
about 1500 ft deep. This area is washed by the GULF
STREAM and is followed by migrating fish, rich in
nutrients allowing good deep sea fishing and excellent
scuba diving year round. You can find sea turtles,
dolphins, eagle rays, and sometimes migrating whales. |

Tell me about Flats Fishing? |
| |
The Flats are a fly or light tackle angler's dream
come true. Each of the three major lagoons has the
ideal habitat for Bonefish, Permit, and other sport
fish. Our guides are highly experienced locals that
are very familiar with the flats to ensure you the
best chance of locating your quarry. We take you to
Cozumel’s northeast flats along Bahia de Isla la
Pasion. These flats have shallow, ankle deep "gin
clear" water over a floor of white sand. Bonefish
are plentiful 12 months a year. In season, you may
also have a chance at a Grand Slam and reel in
Bonefish, 20 lb. Tarpon, or the elusive Permit. From
March to September, you can catch large permits up
to 20 lbs. or larger. You may also have a shot at
baby Snook in season, as well as Barracuda, Snapper,
Triggerfish, and other sport fish. Two guests per
boat. You'll need good wading shoes and polarized
shades. |

WHAT ABOUT TIPPING? |
| |
Tipping is totally
discretionary, but expected and greatly appreciated in
Mexico. The ship mates on both the Second Front and the
Nena will go above and beyond to make sure you have a
great day on the water. Captain Luis and Cristina pride
themselves on offering personal service that is a cut
above. A general rule of thumb is 10% of the charter
price. If you happen to hook the big one, well…On our
boats, all tips go to the mates. |
