QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PICKUP
Where do the extra charges begin for the hotel pickup?
If you are in the Cancun hotel zone or in downtown Cancun there is no extra charge for the transportation. Transportation is included from those locations. However south of Cancun from the Moon Palace down to Tulum there is an extra charge for the transportation. Please see the box above for the charges for the transportation from the Riviera Maya.

 

How will I know you when you arrive?
Well first of all at 5:30 in the morning there is not generally a lot of activity in any hotel. So we will be one of the only vans at the hotel at that time of day. Plus we will look for you and you look for us, and as a last resort call your room.

What time do you pick up in the Riviera Maya or Playa del Carmen?
Your pick up time will depend on your hotel and the time of day you selected to go.
If you are in Playa del Carmen the pick up will be an hour before your departure time, but we will put the exact time on your coupon when you reserves.
If you are in a Riviera Maya hotel your pickup will generally be 30 minutes to 1 hour before your scheduled departure time.
When you reserve you tell us the hotel and we will inform you of the pick-up time.

 

QUESTIONS ABOUT RESERVATIONS AND CANCELLATIONS back to FAQ
What happens once I reserve?
Once you send in a reservation with your credit card we will charge your card the amount of the tour plus the added transportation fee if you are outside the Cancun hotel zone. Then we will send you a coupon which you will print and bring with you to be given to the driver at the time of pickup. The coupon is your proof of purchase and will have a unique confirmation number and coupon number on it and an emergency phone number to call if something goes wrong.

What is your cancellation policy?
You can cancel any fishing trip up to 24 hours before departure and only pay a 5% credit administrative processing fee. If the trip is cancelled because the port is closed or due to bad weather then you will receive a 100% refund. Please remember we do not accept cancellations from anyone but the person that made the reservation. This is to protect you.

What if I want to change the date of the trip?
No problem, we will gladly move any trip for you to a different day, space permitting, as long as you give us a minimum of 24 hours notice. There is no fee for changes.

Is it possible to make a fly fishing or spin tackle fishing reservation when I get to Cancun?
Yes. We do recommend you make your fishing reservations as far in advance as possible so that you are sure to get a boat. During the high season from January to August there are many times we have no boats available 2-3 days in advance.
To reserve once you arrive in Cancun call us at 898-4312 or if you are outside Cancun call us at 01-998-898-4312. If you have a U.S. cell phone you may call 1-800-860-5917.

We now have more people that want to go. What do we do?
To reserve space for more people once you arrive in Cancun call us at 898-4312 or if you are outside Cancun call us at 01-998-898-4312. If you have a U.S. cell phone, or are still in the states, you may call 1-800-860-5917. We will do our best to accommodate your other guests. Space permitting, no problem, or we will make recommendations of another day when we can accommodate all your guests.

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FISHING
What are we likely to catch?
In the lagoon where we go you may catch baby Tarpon, Snook, Permit, Snapper, Bone Fish, Barracuda and Lady Fish or Skip Jack.

Do you provide the equipment?
Yes, if you are fly-fishing or spin tackle fishing we supply the equipment.

Can I bring my own equipment?
Absolutely, if you have a favorite rod, reel, lures and flies bring them.

Do I need wading equipment?
No. The boats are actually very shallow draft and the guide will pole you around so all fishing will actually be done from the boat.

What kind of pole, reels, line and flies for fly fishing should I bring if I want to bring my own?

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BOATS

The boat is private or just for you and your party. The maximum on one boat is two fishermen. Our boats are small and if you are more than 2 fishermen you will need one boat for every 2 fisherman.
