Just got back from an amazing Cancun trip. Started off trying to fly fish off the guide boat but very hard to do with one fly fishing and one casting light tackle so I switched it up to light tackle casting.

Our guide was fantastic. Not only did he like fishing but his family was also connected to the Mexican Kendo Federation….what are the chances.

Day one we fished the lagoon area right by our resort and our guide hooked into a nice tarpon that he let Shannon bring in. We also got a bunch of smaller barracuda and we got to see a couple of nice permit follow the lures to the boat.

The next day Kim our guide offered to take us to Isla Blanca which is a bit remote. Ended up being the absolute highlight of the trip. Remote Cancun fishing hooking into some fish in a very pristine area. Although we only hooked into Barracuda, the fish were larger and there were other opportunities to hook into other fish. Saw some stingrays and a shark also swam by the boat as well.
