I booked a 6 hour trip to fly fish for Tarpon. I'm a lefty and Martin rigged everything to my needs. This was my first shot at Tarpon and the wind was up, but Martin put me on them from the start. I got lucky and boated one early, then for the rest of the day I learned why they... More

Martin Thanks for a great day of fishing in Laguna Nichupte! The sandwiches your wife made us for lunch were great! Make sure you tell her!! Although we had windy conditions on Monday, January 9th, 2012 you provided us with plenty of opportunities to land a Tarpon. I had five strikes, three hook ups, four jumps and three lost Tarpon....

Martin runs a professional outfit. With good gear and experienced guides you can't go wrong fishing with these guys. I fished for tarpon which this time of the year are smaller in size but they make up for their size with incredible aerobatics and a blast to catch on light tackle. If you are a fly guy Martin is using... More

Had our second trip this year with Martim and super-guide Jose. Hooked up with at least SEVEN tarpon in multiple secret spots and my son landed his first (of a few) that morning Would highly recommend this operation. We've fished the lagoon many times and this is THE spot to use. Jose knows exactly where the tarpon hide! More

This was my first saltwater fly fishing trip to Cancun and Tarpon was my main goal. I fished for Tarpon, Snook and Barracuda with Mau as my guide during the first week of November. He and Martin really know the lagoon and where the fish are. I had many hook-ups with tarpon and landed four. The Barracuda were biting one... More

Booked a 6 hour flats boat fishing trip on Cancun tarpon fishing out of the Blue Ray Marina and truly enjoyed every minute of it! Our guide Mauricio was quite skilled at spotting fish at several of his "special holes" - till this day we are still scratching our heads wondering how he was able to spot tarpon hundreds of... More

I went last week with Martin's outfit for one day, out with a great guide by the name of Michelle. I had been out to Cancun before and hooked into Tarpon, but had been yet to land. This fella put me onto plenty of Tarpon and I landed three. The kit was supurb , a quality Sage rod, and the... More

Fished with Mauricio last week and had a great time! He knows the mangroves like the back of his hand. The weather was a bit off with high winds and some rain, and the tarpon were a tough bite, but I managed my first silver king on the fly! We were also able to get onto many other species of... More

This is the 2nd time I've used Martin's outfit and both have been great trips. My girlfriend and I were able to experience the beautiful lagoons while doing some world class fishing. I've fished with many different guides and outfitters and none compares to Martin. He's incredibly knowledgeable and makes the trip a blast. We've recommended him to both resorts... More
