| QUESTIONS ABOUT
THE TRANSPORTATION |
|
How is the road to the departure
point-fishing lodge?
The highway from your hotel to Tulum is very good highway.
Then the road turns into “bad road” giving a whole
new definition to the term “bad road.” Now while
the road is bad – full of potholes - some the size of
your car, it is a beautiful drive along the Caribbean coast
line. You will enjoy view, and the ride, well, the ride is
an adventure and part of the reason the fishing is so good.
What vehicle will we traveling in
to the lodge?
You will be picked up at your hotel in an air-conditioned
van for your ride to the lodge where you will have breakfast
before departure.
| QUESTIONS ABOUT
RESERVATIONS AND CANCELLATIONS |
|
How do I know you have space available?
If you reserve 7 to 10 days in advance you have a
100% chance we have space for you. We recommend you send in
your reservation, complete with your credit card information,
and if space is not available we will call or email you with
when space is available. So be sure to include your phone
number on your reservation form.
Is it possible to make a reservation
when I get to Cancun?
We do recommend you make your reservations as far
in advance as possible so that you are sure to get the trip
when you want to go. During the high season from January to
August there are many times we have no space available 2-3
days in advance. To make your reservation once you arrive
in Cancun call us at 898-4312 or if you are outside Cancun
call us at 01-998-898-4312, and from the states 1-800-860-5917.
What is your cancellation policy?
You can cancel any trip or tour up to 24 hours before
departure and only pay a 5% administrative processing fee.
If the trip or tour is cancelled by the operator you will
receive a 100% refund or we will reschedule at your request.

Is the pricing on the website correct?
Yes. The prices are accurate and complete meaning
that there are no additional charges. Our guarantee is that
you will not pay more than that published price on our website.
At the end of the tour a tip is optional and is generally
10% - 15% of the price depending on how much you like the
tour and the service provided.
I send in a reservation with my
credit card and what happens?
Once you send a reservation we confirm that there
is space available. Then we charge your card. We then put
the confirmation number on a coupon or voucher and send it
to you in an email. You print it and that is your paid receipt
for the tour. You present the coupon at check in.
Should I send in my credit card
with the reservation?
Yes because you have a much better chance of getting
the tour the less time that goes by before the departure.
If there is no space available we will not charge your credit
card but advise when the tour is available closest to the
date you want. If you send in a reservation form without a
credit card number inquiring about availability then we respond,
simply more time passes giving the tour more time to fill
up. Again once you are ready to reserve it is best to send
your reservation with a credit card. Please remember no reservation
is made until we have payment via your credit card or by other
means.
How can I check the status of my
reservation?
It is our objective that you know what is happening
with your reservation. We will send you an update if we are
going to be than 48 hours getting you a response. If 48 hours
has gone by and you have gotten no update or coupon please
call 1-800-860-5917 from the USA and Canada or +52-998-898-4312
from the rest of the world. If you are already in Cancun our
local number is 898-4312 and if you are outside Cancun dial
01-998-898-4312.

The
greatest pleasure in bone fishing is to spot the fish, cast,
see the fish following the fly, feel the hit, set the hook
and hold on, as you listen to the scream of the reel as a
bonefish, pound per pound stronger than most fish, strips
off line… What a thrill!
Now
you can have this pleasure and the pleasure of fishing for
Permit, Tarpon, Snook, and Barracuda in the beautiful and
rugged Boca Pila Bay - Ascension Bay Area - all from your
hotel in Cancun, Playa del Carmen or the Riviera Maya.
You
are fishing one of the truly great locations left in the
world, home to more grand slams - permit, tarpon and bonefish
all in the same day, than any other place.
Variety is
the word to describe Ascension Bay and Boca Paila flats.
There are hundreds of square miles where it's common to
see bonefish, permit, and barracuda in the same day, all
year round! With seasons for migrants tarpon and snook.
That's why probably more Grand Slams have been caught
here.
