Why May is the Best Time for Fishing in Puerto Vallarta 

May marks the beginning of **peak fishing season** in Puerto Vallarta, with an abundance of game fish migrating through the region. Here’s what you can expect:  

- **Blue Marlin & Black Marlin**: These prized billfish are becoming more active as water temps rise. Our crews use advanced **fish-finding technology** to locate them near underwater structures and bait schools.  

- **Yellowfin Tuna**: Schools of tuna are growing in size, offering thrilling battles for anglers. We often find them near **El Banco** and **Corbeteña**, two of the most productive fishing grounds.  

- **Dorado (Mahi-Mahi)**: Known for their dazzling colors and acrobatic fights, dorado are plentiful this time of year, especially around floating debris and weed lines.  

- **Wahoo & Roosterfish**: If you love speed and aggression, wahoo are a must-catch, while inshore anglers can test their skills against powerful roosterfish near rocky shorelines.  

How We Ensure Your Success on the Water

We don’t leave anything to chance. Our captains rely on real-time data, including:  

- **Water temperature charts** to identify temperature breaks where fish congregate.  

- **Sonar and satellite imagery** to pinpoint baitfish activity.

By combining these tools with decades of local knowledge, we maximize your chances of landing the fish of a lifetime.

Happiness may be priceless, but a fishing trip with us in Puerto Vallarta comes pretty close! Don’t miss out on the incredible action.
