Blue Water Fishing

Fishing Guatemala Pacific Fins' fleet features the newest, fastest and most luxurious sportfishing yachts in Guatemala. Every boat is meticulously maintained for your comfort and safety. All of our boats are equipped with top of the line tackle. Our crews are the best in the world. Each boat features an experienced Captain and two excellent mates. You can see pictures of our boats and read about our captains on the Sportfishing fleet page. The Pacific coast of Guatemala features some of the world's most consistently calm billfishing waters. Fishing in Guatemala normally takes place in an area called the "Pocket", a deep underwater canyon that is 15 miles wide. On many days fishing will start between only 12 to 15 miles offshore. On other days we may run as far as 40 miles if that is what it takes to put you on fish. During the day your crew will treat you to a hot lunch. You will also be served snacks and fresh fruit, and we will also prepare fresh Ceviche or Sashimi right in the galley. Of course, free beer and sodas will also be available. Combine this great fishery with the comfort and hospitality of the Pacific Fins Resort and you have a recipe for an incredible fishing experience. Sailfish, Marlin, Dorado (Dolphin), and Yellowfin Tuna are the most common species in the Guatemala. But make no mistake about it, this is the best sailfishing spot in the world. On average, you can experience 15 to 20 bites a day and during the peak season of November through May, 40 or more bites is not uncommon. The top boats release over 2,000 sailfish a year. On March 11, 2006, the daily release record was achieved with an unbelievable 124 sailfish releases. These Pacific Sailfish average 80 to 90 pounds, but fish over 125 pounds are common. Marlin fishing in Guatemala in recent times has been exceptional and is clearly some of the best in the world. Blues, stripes and blacks are all caught in our waters, with blue marlin in the 300 to 600 pound range being the most common. In recent years it has not been uncommon for the best captains to raise 4 or more marlin in a day. Marlin can be caught year round in Guatemala but the largest concentrations seem to occur in September through December.
