Morning Magic on the 7 Mares: Pescado Adventures Fishing Report The Caribbean sun was just beginning to paint the horizon as we slipped out of the Puerto Aventuras marina for an early morning 4-hour session aboard our 38ft Bertram, '7 Mares'. There is a certain stillness to the Riviera Maya coastline in those early hours—before the breeze picks up—that makes the ocean feel like it belongs only to you, but the quiet didn't last long; while the coffee was still hot, our team’s hard work paid off and the reels were already starting to sing. The Catch of the Day Mutton Snapper: The star of the show! As you can see in the photos, we landed some truly impressive specimens. These fish are known for their wary nature and incredible fight, but they are even better known for being one of the best-tasting fish in the Caribbean. Yellowtail Snapper: We rounded out the haul with a healthy mess of Yellowtails. These are a local favorite—fast, aggressive, and perfect for a fresh ceviche back on shore. The Pescado Experience At Pescado Adventures, we pride ourselves on more than just the fish. It’s about the experience of being on the water in one of the most beautiful regions in the world. Whether you are a seasoned angler or it's your first time holding a rod, our experienced team handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on the tug at the end of the line. The 7 Mares provided a stable, comfortable platform, cutting through the light Caribbean chop with the ease only a classic Bertram can offer.

The lagoon doesn’t get enough credit. This is great shallow water fishing year round. If you haven’t tried it do yourself a favor and book a trip.

I'm not a fishing expert so I can't truly assess the quality of fishing in February. We had a great day though.

There were so many bonefish in the flats, I am not sure how it could be better. I had more than a dozen shots to cast to bonefish, maybe closer to twenty. But I am still a novice, so the fact that I didn't catch that many i place on me.

Do not expect big fish. There are a few around and a couple that were caught today. Most boats came in with ok size red snapper and triggerfish. Both are delicious.

If you get sea sick or are not sure that you do, make sure you bring stuff for that. Also if you need snacks bring them unless you are going longer than 4 hours! Fun tip: Morning fishing is the best!

Just pick Guapo Boat charters with Captain Cesar and you will have a blast. For a sailfish, an 8 hour trip is best.

This is a great trip because you don't have to drive a long distance out to reach fishing waters, so the risk of seasickness is low.
