Had a great, quick trip with these guys in the laguna behind the hotel zone, oriented toward the chance of catching tarpon in the sunset hour. I'm not the world's best caster; Mau politely asked if I'd like a little lesson. It helped a lot! When the tarpon started rolling, and my fly seemed not to work, he changed flies until we found one that did work. I blew the first strike, got the second one, and the minute of glory made it all worthwhile. It's fun catching fish like this in view of the hotels.

Jose is the man! He put me on a multitude of rolling tarpon and I was able to catch my first saltwater fish on the fly rod (as well as missing one in the 20+ pound range, which was my fault for not setting hard enough). He gave great direction as to where to cast (10 o' clock, 11o' clock, etc), put us in the right spots and was very patient and positive. Can't wait to come back next year!

This company does a great job. The reservation process is easy and they communicate well as to how it's going to work. And then the guides work very hard to get you fish and don't shame you if your casting is a little off:). I've used them on 2 different occasions when sneaking away from family at the hotel and was incredibly pleased. They can't control the weather, bite, or your casting...but they'll certainly put you in a great position and show you a beautiful part of the world.

Had a great trip today with our guide Jose, we only did the shorter 4 hour trip but he managed to get us on a lot of fish, however I was not that experienced with catching tarpon so ended up losing a number of the hook ups.
Overall really enjoyed the trip and was glad to have caught my very first tarpon
Probably wouldn’t recommend though if you don’t have any fishing experience as my partner struggled a bit as she is not great at casting. She did however improve over the course of the trip with help from Jose.

The fishing was good, and we had a ton of fun. However, there were two guides on the boat, one in front and one in back. Both of them sighting fish telling you where to cast and contradicting one another at times. The guy in front was always handling the line which is great for beginners, but unnecessary and slightly annoying for a more seasoned fly caster. Additionally, Isiah, the lead guide, spoke English very well. I tried to ask numerous questions about fishing in Mexico, what time of year is best, what’s his favorite species to catch, etc. It was clear he didn’t want to engage, and instead spoke to the other guide in Spanish the whole time. We also stopped fishing 45 minutes to an hour earlier than expected. Again, the fishing was great and we were on fish all day long so it’s hard to complain, but just a few things that would have made the experience even better.

Wow, amazing trip.
Bernardo was a great guide, put me on baby tarpon & snook within the first 30 minutes of the trip. I ended up landing 5 tarpon but only because of my lack of skill, should've had a handful more.
I'd recommend these guys any day. In fact, my brother is in Cancun this week and is booking a trip with them.
Great communication, transportation was easy, lunch was perfect (sandwich/chips/drink).

A great day with Enrique. Second time using company. Arrived a few minutes early. Got snapper and nice snooks on spinning gear. Missed some tarpon as followed bait but didn't hook. Found a nice hole with a school of smaller snapper we took with fly rod which was great. He had boat angled so breeze at my back which increased me casting confidence. Will use again

We had a wonderful time fishing with Bernardo for 2 days. We had great tarpon action both days! Bernardo put us on the fish and patiently worked with me on imporoving technique as lm not the most experienced angler. Cancun fly fishing picked us up from our hotel so there was no stress getting to and from the boat. Awesome time and we will definitely be doing it again! Thank you Bernardo and Cancún fly fishing !

I've been lucky enough to fish with many experienced fly-fishing guides. I was extremely impressed with Enrique and his patient, hard working approach. Not only did he work his tail off to put us on fish, he's an absolute professional.
We fished with Enrique for two days and caught so many tarpon we lost count. My buddy landed his first Permit on the fly with several more shots.
I highly recommend Cancun Fly Fishing!! From working with Jon upon booking - outstanding communication BTW, the provided transportation, the entire experience was first class and we'll definitely be returning!

Went fishing for tarpon and snook with Bernardo and his dad. I didn’t fish with his dad but my brothers that did had a blast. They were put on a ton of fish and got to see some really beautiful spots in isla blanca.
Bernardo was one of the best guides I’ve ever fished with. My casting was sub par and Bernardo was coaching me all day and helped me greatly improve my cast. He put us on a TON of fish. I hooked a good handful but was unable to land any. I was stuck on my trout fishing ways and couldn’t make it happen. Regardless, Bernardo was patient and helpful all day long. I’ll definitely be back for another trip with him hopefully for more days next time! Thanks again guys.
