    I know its spring break and everyone wants to party all day and all night. Would anyone want to fish a shared charter? I would rather at least meet someone on a forum than totally random people if you get a shared trip through the boats. I am looking for like a 6hr I will do 8hr if that what someone was looking for.

    When we went we caught a lot of fish. I got really sea sick, which wasn't fun, but we did get a shark out of the deal :)

    Sharks are actually really easy to catch because they are super agressive. Once I caught like 2 dozen little sharks on one trip. And when I finally caught a regular fish , by the time I reeled it in, only the head was left. The rest already got eaten by the sharks. LOL.

    I have been on a few fishing trips down in Cancun. The deep sea charters are Ok, we caught a ton of bonita which is like a tuna. They tell you that you will be catching all kinds of cool fish including sail fish etc.. however, once you get out on the water it is a different story. They will ask you if you plan to have the fish taxidermied and if you say no, they wont even target those fish and you will be catching the junk fish all day. IMO its not worth the several hundred dollars per person! So, the next time I decided to bring a pack fishing rod and some saltwater lures and fished right on the beach, which I asked and is completely legal. I ended up catching lots of really cool fish and it didn't cost me anything and didn't take up my entire day!
