Hooked up with PV Charters before we left for our trip to Puerto Vallarta. Told Steve we wanted to target tuna and not concentrate on sailfish, not knowing that most all of the fish can be in the same general area. Was a tough day fishing...lots of trolling around without much catching, but that is why it is called fishing and not catching. 3:30 pm we started to head towards PV again. WHAM!!! 350 pound Black Marlin!!! Took over an hour to get it into the boat. Made our entire trip! Would fish with them again. !st class operation. Extremely clean boats, great gear, no knot tying in any of the reels. Even without catching the fish we had already decided to fish with them again next year

I wanted to let you know that all 8 of us had a great time fishing on the Cindy. The crew was very friendly and hard working. We caught 22 fish. Everyone caught 3 or 4 each. The boat was spacious and clean and there was plenty of room to sit in the sun or go in for shade. I also want to comment that the fishing equipment was in tip top shape. I would happily recommend that anyone fish on this boat and if I come back this is the only boat I would fish on. For those who don't speak Spanish, the entire crew speaks English. Thanks Luis!

My boys have always wanted to fish offshore so this year we made it happen. This tour was perfect for them to try out catching bigger fish. We had a slow day as the fish weren't biting but our guide worked hard to find us some fish and it paid off. We caught yellow fin tuna and my boys really enjoyed reeling them in. My 10 year old was able to catch some spanish mackeral so he was thrilled. We saw dolphins and sea turtles also. This tour is just right for beginners or those wanting to test out their fishing skills more offshore.

Trip advisor did a terrible job on giving me the details of where to meet our boat captain. They gave us the wrong address and no phone number. Once we found the captain we had a great day.

We originally wanted to do a 6 hour charter but also wanted to catch some large fish, such as sail fish. Steve informed us that we would have a better chance of catching some big fish if we did the 8 or 12 hour charter. We decided to pay the $800 for an 8 hour charter. My girlfriend and I caught 3 fish each; the largest being a Jack Crevelle about a foot long. I understand that you can't make the fish bite but after hearing that people went out that same day for 2 hours and caught large sail fish and mahi mahi, it makes me regret spending the $800 with these guys. You might want to look at other options.

We had a great trip. The captain and crew were so kind. They help our 6 year old fish. They went above and beyond.

The crew and boat were great, and this was an amazing experience well worth the money and the time. We were given the option of going for big fish out deep, or staying closer to shore for more action. We took the latter, and we’re not disappointed with the catch-up over 70 great game, fish, including mahi-mahi, and mackerel. And amazing day and experience we will not soon forget.

We had a wonderful time on this charter. The captain and the first mate were both incredibly helpful and made the experience. We didn’t catch anything too large, but we caught at least 12 small fish which was exciting and enjoyable.

My first Blue Marlin
We went out on a full 12 hour charter as recommended by the captain for our best shot at Blue Marlin. It was a long 2 hour ride out but only after 5 minutes of having the lines in the water We had our first bite of the day. Unfortunately the excitement did not last the Marlin spit the bait and got away. So the crew put the lines back out in the water and we were back on the hunt trolling. About 30 minutes later we had a another bite and this time the Marlin was hooked good and I reeled it in about 1 hr wow what a fight I did not know how strong these fish were. The crew released the Marlin and the captain informed us it looked like it was around 400 lbs! I cannot say enough about everyone at PV Charters I told them my next dream fish was to catch a big Blue Marlin and they made it happen.
Thanks again for another awesome trip
