Mexico is a prime destination for vacationers from around the world. Visitors come seeking to experience the vibrant music, delicious food, 6,000 miles of beaches and to explore the culture, both present day and ancient. The land is not all that draws visitors, the ocean, and what swims in it, beckons those interested in the sport of fishing.
Although most fishermen heading to Mexico charter a boat, surf fishing as well as fly fishing are also popular. Depending upon from which coast you throw your line, yellow tail, agulon, bonito, green jacks, amber jacks and rooster fish (to name a few), are abundant. Fly fisherman can find bonefish, tarpon and the elusive permit. Bring your bass fishing lure for the fish you want to catch.
If you want to experience Mexico bass fishing from a boat, keep in mind that reservations for the best charters sell out early. Make reservations well in advance of your trip and be sure you understand exactly what is included in the price quote. You will need to pay for the boat, its captain, a crew, the fishing license, fishing equipment, cleaning and filleting, food, drink, ice, tips and taxes.
When deep sea fishing, depending up the time of the year, expect to catch mahi mahi (dorado), white tuna, sailfish, snapper, blackfin, skipjack, yellowfin tuna, kingfish, wahoo and grouper. No matter what you fish for, don’t forget to take your camera as many fish species are catch and release only and you don’t want to miss out on bragging rights.
Trophy bass fishing in fresh water Lake Comedero or nearby El Salto provide an alternative to salt water fishing. Each lake is stocked with both native bass species and imported black bass which are known for their fighting ability.
Whether from the shore, on the ocean or at the lake, fishing in Mexico offers a diverse fishing experience that is unmatched.
