Finding the place, easy. Getting set up and finding the boat, easy. Finding the fish, tough. We started hot with a decent Barracuda and the went a couple hours without a bite. But watching the captain and guide just fight the sargassum, which was literally everywhere, was an experience on its own. wish i could have done more at that point rather than enjoy a couple cold Corona but their experience and patience led us to another few great catches! Worth every penny. I will definitely come back and spend another few hours watching these guys do their thing.

Captain Erwin and Mate Felipe worked extremely hard to get us on fish.  They were constantly changing out for fresh bait, changing out the teasers, and constantly scanning for the Kites (birds) to indicate fish.  They never took a break.  They wanted fish to be caught.  If you read the chart for offshore fishing, only three species are in the area in November.  We caught two Barracuda.  Mid spring until early fall numerous species are available including sport fish.

There were at least 6 other hits but nothing else hooked.  One misnomer from what I am accustomed to is “bottom fishing”.  The boat continually trolls, but what seemed to be at reduced RPM’s and in shallower water over the reefs.  (I suspect it is illegal to anchor or drop lines directly over the reef).

When there is a hit, the Captain or Mate set the hook and then all you do is reel it in.  I prefer feeling or seeing the hit myself, setting the hook or missing it is then entirely up to me.

I can’t imagine a crew working harder or more diligently to catch fish and please the customer.  Both were very pleasant and tried to keep us engaged. 

Suggestion would be take a cushion to set on the fiberglass seats.  With any kind of swell it’s hard on a skinny butt.  Weather was fantastic, with one small rain outburst.

The guys were great very nice and talkative it never felt awkward on the boat at all and all the local knowledge they had was great to hear about just being able to point things out while we were on the water and show us some of what the Caribbean Sea had to offer and the fishing was great we caught plenty of fish 10/10 would do again

We were the only ones on the boat and they made fishing so easy. We only caught barracuda which we couldn’t keep but they did amazing given how much seaweed there was Our favorite part ended up being getting to snorkel and feed fish and turtles. A sting ray even jumped on us to try to get food which was super cool.

Went on 4 h am trip with my son (9yo). Were told before that it probably most barracudas and they were right. Had several bites and landed 4. The rods are to heavy for my son and the spot you sit and reel in is a little tight but captain Rafael helped him out great and he could do it with having dad to help him.

The boat isn’t the most impressing thing you’ve seen but it does the job.

I had to make changes in my booking a couple times and they were super helpful.

Overall nice guys at mexidivers and would go with them again.
