Fishing in La Paz with Tailhunter Sportfishing

"It's All About The Smiles!"

Tailhunter Sportfishing Brochure

Why "Pangas" ?

American-designed and especially built for fishermen and skippered by captains who grew up on these waters. Pangas are fast, comfortable sportfishing machines and can go where cruisers cannot follow! For even the largest fish like marlin, tuna, wahoo, giant roosterfish and more, we don’t have to go far in the calm blue waters of the Sea of Cortez! You will never be out of sight of land and can often see the bottom!

Tailhunter Sportfishing is YOUR full-service outfitter and guide service in La Paz. Since 1998, we are the only operators running two full-time sportfishing fleets. This gives you the options for the best fish and best conditions during your Baja fishing vacation. Our Tailhunter La Paz Fleet fishes north around the fertile Espirito Santo Island. Our Tailhunter Las Arenas Fleet at Bahia Muertos/Suenos fishes the legendary area around Cerralvo Island.

Live Bait vs. Trolling

We’re not into long boat rides trolling and dragging lures back and forth across the ocean a zillion miles from shore in big waves. That’s boring. Our Tailhunter style of fishing is with dead and live bait close to shore where the big fish live! YOU hold the rods! YOU fight the fish, not the boat! There’s more action…more FUN!

Fishing in La Paz

La Paz is your gateway to the Sea of Cortez. Jacques Cousteau called it the “Aquarium of the World” with some of the world’s best biodiversity and over 700 known species of fish and some of the most unique wildlife on Earth.

Unlike so many other Mexican destinations, La Paz is “tourist friendly” not “touristy”. There’s a big difference! Life moves slower in La Paz. The smiles are genuine and welcoming. Come visit our warm blue waters. Put your toes in the white sands of an empty beach!

Tailhunter Sportfishing is looking forward to setting up your vacation!

Care of Your Catch

Nothing is better than fresh caught fish you boated yourself. We encourage catch-and-release, but you’re more than welcome to keep as much of your fish within legal limits. Even if it’s 100 pounds! We include cleaning and filleting your catch. We can also arrange freezing it so that you can bring it home with you. Or, bring some to our Tailhunter Restaurant and we’ll cook it up for you.
