About Your Trip

Experience the incredible inshore fishing that the waters of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico have to offer. The west coast is renowned for its crystal-clear shallow flats and reefs, creating world-class sight-casting opportunities for a variety of hard-fighting species.

Target powerful tarpon cruising the shallows and trophy-sized snapper holding on shallow reef structure. Anglers also have the chance to encounter fast-running mackerel, aggressive jack crevalle, barracuda, and many other exciting species that thrive in these productive coastal waters.

Whether you're an experienced angler looking for technical sight-fishing action or simply want to enjoy the beauty of Puerto Rico's west coast, Cabo Rojo's shallow-water flats and reefs provide endless opportunities for unforgettable catches and exciting light-tackle battles.

Raised in the Caribbean, I've been running these waters my whole life. From shallow flats to deep canyons, I've spent years commercial fishing and learning the west coast's hidden gems. Around here, we don't fish by luck, we fish by experience. Come aboard, enjoy the ride, and let's go find out what's biting!
