LUCKY I is a small boat that allows small groups to live their fishing dreams without breaking the bank. You will be able to explore the multiple fishing and relaxational options available on this part of Mexico’s Pacific coastline, on a budget. The smaller price does not mean a lower quality, however: the boat features a bathroom, an extendable shade canopy, seating, and a Bluetooth stereo, as well as all the appropriate navigational and safety equipment. On top of that, its wide bow cuts through chop with ease, giving you a comfortable ride for a boat of its size.
During your fishing expedition, our friendly and bilingual crew will do everything in their power to help you hook a keeper. Whether you are fishing nearshore for Roosterfish, Jack Crevalle, and Snappers, or travelling offshore for Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Sailfish, and Marlin, they will be by your side with quality Shimano gear, as well as a range of big game fishing necessities, such as outriggers, tuna tubes, and a live bait tank. Why not combine some light tackle fishing with snorkeling around the famous Las Animas or Los Arcos, or test your fishing skills with jigging, popping, and trolling for game fish in these bountiful waters?
