as we send you a map when you reserve.
We are staying in the Riviera
Maya can we take this fishing trip?
You can take the CANCUN HOTEL ZONE (NICHUPTE LAGOON) FLY AND SPIN

do not have a car. Here are the private transfer prices:
Moon Palace to Pto. Morelos $90 USD round trip
Past Pto. Morelos to Playa del Carmen $120 USD round trip
Past Playa del Carmen to Pto. Aventuras $135 USD round trip

Please enter you transportation request in the
“Please enter your questions and comments here:” section
on the reservation form.
What time is the departure?
We normally depart at 6:00 AM but as we know you are probably here
with the family or on business we need to be flexible. So the question
becomes, “When do you want to leave?” However the fishing
is generally better early in the morning and the wind is less if
you plan to fly fish.

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FISHING
What are we likely to catch?
In the Nichupte Lagoon – in front of the Cancun Hotel Zone
where we go you may catch baby Tarpon, Snook, Permit, Snapper, Bone
Fish, Barracuda and Lady Fish or Skip Jack.
What happens to the fish we catch?
We practice a strict “catch and release” policy as the
lagoon is a protected area. Since no commercial fishing is allowed
you will see plenty of action in the channels, flats and mangroves
right in the Cancun hotel zone.
Do you provide the equipment?
Yes, if you are fly-fishing or spin tackle fishing we supply the
equipment. Tackle is important so we use:
• For Fly Fishing; “G-Loomis” fly rods with “Tibor”
or “Bauer” reels
• For Spin Tackle; “Shimano” and “Penn”
rods and reels
• Terminal tackle; depends on what specie you are fishing
Can I bring my own equipment?
Absolutely, if you have a favorite rod, reel, lures and flies bring
them.
Do I need wading equipment?
No. The boats are actually very shallow draft and the guide will
pole you around so all fishing will actually be done from the boat.
What kind of pole, reels, line
and flies for fly fishing should I bring if I want to bring my own?
