    Im Going to TTR in August and was wanting to go deep sea fishing again.

    Last time I booked with one of the tour companies at TTR in there office area near the sports bar. My experiance for me tralling up and down the beach maybe 100m out isn't fishing to me.

    Has anyone 1. Gone deep sea fishing in Cancun in particular in August
    2. Used any good companies down there they would recommend
    3. Did you have a good time worth leaving the resort LOL

    I would think that flats fishing down there would be more productive than deep sea fishing. We have gone deep sea twice (not in Cancun) and trolling around wasn't that productive... 2-3 fish total among 4-6 people. Only thing I could think that might effect the flats in Cancun would be the wind.
    I would like to try the fly fishing excursion out one of these trips.
    Steve's link to USA Transfers offers fishing packages, both fly and spin fishing if you're interested.

    I've been 3 times and it's been a bust every time.. I am an excellent fly caster. Didn't k ow there were tarpon in Cancun.. Inter-fucking-resting!! If you wanna deep sea fish, go to Cozumel. Much better there!
